I get followed round my town all the time, they just hear a car with loudish exhausts and follow you, its funny, they always do it, othing better to do cus its a small town :P

what like dawn of the dead  :fear:

Hot fuzz you mean? :P yeah its exactly like that, you do 34mph in a 30 and the lights come on and they chase you at about 100mph in 3rd, its the only oppurtunity for a chase so they make full use of it :P

Another relevant occurrence yesterday. Parked in town opposite the chippy. Looked to my right and there was a traffic warden issuing a ticket to a fiesta parked illegally. So i thought, better move mine. Found a space, parked up and as i was getting out the warden was walking past "I found a better place to park!" I said, looking down at my car i realised the wheels were sticking out the space by about 3 inches  ::) "You're not going to ticket me for being out are you?" I said "No boy, your all right" he said, then he crossed the road "Ooo it's an Abarth, nice" he said. He then peered into the window and spent around 5 minutes asking me about it, finished up by saying "If i had enough money i'd buy one straight away like"  :)

Bet if it were another car he would have ticketed me for being out. Nice chap though (all things considered)

Even the traffic wardens are friendly in Wales. And the drug dealers.
