I got all excited, and thought "I'll have him"

[mel]

I drove down towards a roundabout near to work earlier and noticed a scamera van parked on a hatched central reservation (solid white line border) with hazard lights on. Now this p1ssed me off already as the location was pretty dangerous and he was blocking visabilty onto the roundabout BUT then came the master piece. The fat operator was out the van and wondering around on the roundabout and the islands that approach it with a fist full on flyers! Now on closer inspection he appeared to have already attached some and was doing some more to the bottoms of the signposts, these read along the lines of "Earn extra cash from home call 07*******" etc etc you get the idea. Now this really got my back up as I thought cheeky tt not only has he parked illegally and dagerously but during his scamera operator work time the bar steward is busy feathering his nest with his little job on the side. So thinks I, I'm going to spin round and get this lot on camera and see what the papers and his boss have to say about this. Which is exactly what I did, and some bloody good pictures I got to, right up to the point where I photographed him walking upto another signpost and pull down another flyer.............bugger foiled again he wasn't putting them up he was taking them down.

Ooh, so near and yet so far. Were they diagonals or chevrons he was parked on? Chevrons are a big

Does he also pick up litter and sweep the roundabout?

Guess it's still better than him scamming people

I'd have taken a photo anyway, after all they're not afraid to twist the facts to suit their own little agenda are they?

What - you mean that "the camera never lies" isn't always true??
