Strangely enough Neil, I just got flashed for speeding, yes, I'm guilty, but the annoying thing is...

For a fortnight on the road I travel regularly, temporary traffic lights urgent gas repairs.
The first Monday the delay is removed, I'm busy thinking, no delay how wonderful, Doh, forgot the speed camera, clickety, click.
What the hey, I WAS speeding, but no chance of appealing, (unless on mental grounds), nothing there to slow me down.
If only I'd seen a hedgehog to vent my spleen upon.

I'd have slowed down.

Now my choice is, to pay fine, get three points, or pay extra nine pounds attend speed awarness course. Then lose a days pay?

Oh, dear.
(still deciding, after all nearly 20 years since last speeding offence, I could save myself 3 pints and a bit).

OR

Do I attend, but pay no attention?

Do I really need to be lectured for a genuine mistake?
