Don't worry ... some old farm boyo will load sheep into the box one day soon, you mark my words.

I had thought of running a "Spot the Copper" comp in the village mag, with a prize to anyone who managed to get a snap of our local bobby actually in the village, but since it is such a small place I felt I didn't need the grief of being pulled over everytime I go out.

There is a part of me that thinks this idea is a stroke of genius. I'm pretty sure that a horse box costs less than a mobile speed camera so all they have to do now the story has broken is buy a load of horse boxes and just leave them by the side of the road to scare the drivers.

Won't work ....... We are less than 60 miles from Liverpool. Anything not nailed down will vanish like the morning mist.

I have this vision of a copper standing, camera in hand, knee deep in horse sh*t ~ 'cos you just know they borrowed the box from their "Mounted Division" rather than buying a new one.
