    Richard no need to confront them. You have a camera take a photo of them (from a distance) and contact the police yourself. Sometimes lads you have to stand up for what you believe in, I am not saying knock em out, but don't turn a blind eye.

    Nice one lads funny enough I always have a problem with my car on the M6 just about opposite Doxey on every occassion must be a magnetiic field radiating that forces me to stop there. It might be safer to visit the reserve from the Town cheers John

    Although not involved in this situation we have the same problem in WORCS. Or at least we used to (a certain person is not on the scene so much - I'm sure you all know who I am on about). We all like to pride ourselves on being able to ID everything we see. This pride can get in the way and...
