Spotted a cop on a stealth push bike in Willenhall West Mids today (Wolves
not Cov.). Definitely the coolest thing Willenhall has seen for a long
time....'part from me of course 8-D
...and the best thing was, he was moving an illegally parked WVM off the
double yellows, opposite Somerfield exit, in front of banks. These yellows
seem to be a special marking to allow FLB (fat lazy b*stards) to get money
from the bank ATMs without having to travel too far from their beloved
cages.
Unfortunately the cop disagreed and moved him on...Brilliant!!!, I almost
stopped and applauded. Interesting fact - cop had long(ish) highlighted
hair, causing confusion as to whether it was a cop or not. Very amusing as
he was tall, tanned, good looking and obviously fit (no!, I'm not gay or

owt

Quoted message said:

;-). Very competent on his bike, totally confident and a cool uniform to
boot (or possibly not, given exercise and local ambient temperature.....)
Excellent, money well spent at last!!!

I heard on a talk show once that it wasn't illegal to park on yellow lines
if you told the warden you were collecting valuables, including money. Don't
know if he was mistaken or not.

Around these 'ere parts it seems to be accepted practice that yellow lines =
reserved parking spaces for the hard of thinking ;-)

Money is not goods, for the point of collecting or delivering goods
while parked briefly on yellows.

(Test case in England & Wales many years ago).

If I could just correct you there, Murray; we had that picture of Nicole
Cooke from the Sunday Times not so long ago...
