It was taken in good faith and duly put upright. This was more of a prompt looking at the L Plate on the Vespa. ;)

Plus, if they’re tackling a 16yo girl who’s a stickler for doing as she should, while ignoring unplated and antisocial riders with no baffles round here, they have it very wrong.

If that that was in Wales, it would have been 10 years in jail and a licence ban. I was stopped in North Wales for going too slow on a country lane. Loads of tractor mud. The cooper said I was scoping out farms to steel. Then he tried to give me a ticket for not having the showrooms name on the number plate. I told him it didn't need a name but pointed out the plate was stamped with the BS number. After 30 minutes of trying to do me for anything he realised that he was being filmed, he went very quite and said I could go with a warning. I said I would rather go to court. He asked why and I told him he was a corrupt. He then stated to swear at me and told me to wipe the camera. I said it is my evidence and by destroying it would be illegal. He swore at me again and got in his car and drove off.
I sent the video to the Police commissioner of North Wales and to my surprise I never received a reply.

We had really nice weather yesterday with temperature around 26 degrees Celsius.

I took the Triumph out for a lengthy spin and some cheese cake.

Rain, rain, rain and more bloody rain. All there is to do is to watch the tour of Britain. Yesterday evening was the best for a while. First we had our 2 squirrels in the garden. Followed by the Vixen and cubs. We hand feed these and have done for years.
Haven't seen the Hedgehogs or Stoats this year so far.
