New Powers for Traffic Wardens - hillman
Today's big news is that traffic wardens will be given the power to levy on the spot fines for infringement, e.g., stopping in the yellow cross hatched areas and causing holdups. I'm all for that in principle. Many times drivers have given me the "So what are you going to do about it" look.

We have in our village a warden named June. One day, when I was in the greengrocers, the handsome young male proprietor of the next door Italian restuarant stopped his swanky open top tourer on the yellow lines opposite and sauntered across with his jacket slung across his shoulders, 'Dolce Vita' style. In a short while there was June looking at it, rocking back and forth on her heels and sucking her teeth. The shop girls were shouting "Gerrim, June"! I missed what happened next, sad.
