This morning one of the drivers spotted a large quantity of nails ( I think they are the type roofers use) scattered about the rank. So that was 4 of us picking them all up and checking tyres looks like i was the only one unlucky enough to pick one up in a tyre :sad: At least the police have taken this a little more seriously and checked CCTV footage although i doubt they'll find anything the question now is was it deliberate or an accident and why ?

I hope we haven't got EDL nutters trying to get at muslim drivers because thats not who was affected and more to the point what else will they attempt ? if it is

The lead EDL nutter was pictured today wearing a pair of union jack shorts.
What a great advert for our flag - covered in p--s stains, sh-t marks, and fart smells!

Whether they are EDL nutters or not, however there are plenty of nutters about.
