Paging the German speakers...

No.

 

No it wasn't. They took the 400 eu as security against the eventual
fine, otherwise they'd have just put him in the nick until it came to
court.

 

I thought it was just Steve who took the rap for that particular
episode?

 

Almost as harsh as getting a section 59 for the same thing.

Does "Skint and homeless" work over there?

Thanks. In which case I'll follow your advise and do **** all here
until the next letter turns up. Once that happens then I'll cough up.

I gave a reasonable mitigation: Had missed sign, didn't realise that
this would be an offense but was willing to accept I'd broke the law
(and pleaded guilty).

 

That's ok then because if they can't get hold of you they can't tell
you what they're going to do if you ever put a foot in the country
again.

You'll soon end up with nowhere to go apart from Scandinavia and when
that happens you'll be coming with the winter tourists.

 

Oh well, best to just make sure you have plenty of cash next time you
cross the border... or just avoid motorway crossings and don't get
tugged by the police next time.

 

Similarly, recently met an ex colleague, who told me that upon entering
clearing Customs at Schiphol, was pulled to one side. Apparently he had
an outstanding speeding ticket - from 2006. He was prepared to pay,
which was handy, else they were going to refuse him entry. Took them
over an hour to get it sorted, all while his subordinates were waiting
for him.

Adding insult to injury, said ex colleague is master grand poobar of
compliance and audit related stuff.

 

I suppose that depends upon the state of the bike...

 

Sie sind schon deutlich gesunken, Schlacke Sie!

I'm reading this at the moment:

It might help!

 

I hope the final settlement isn't too much more, since we all agreed to
split the fine four ways!

I suspect the cop's version of events might include thinly veiled
references to riding like an absolute ****. On balance, it's just as
well he didn't catch us 50 miles or so earlier when we hit three times
the limit on the way out of St Moritz.

 

You'll just have to win the pub quiz.

Again.

 

Pub's closed for refurbishment til the end of the month so I'm having to
live off my regular salary and not my trivia-related income. Bah.

Looks like I'll be rather late turning up at Hogwarts next week btw, I'm
being sent to Turin again and I'll have to hot-foot it straight from
Gatwick.

 

No worries. I'll buy you a pickled egg early doors so you can have it
when you arrive.

 

Haha. Same blurb as Steve's, or is this the post-court ruling?

 

Heh, Paging Mick Whittingham and the other Royal Mail sceptics.
