Barnsley to Issue On The Spot Fines for Swearing
According to this report, those caught swearing in Barnsley in June, will be fined £80 immediately.
I suppose I would have been fined this morning, when an idiot lorry driver blocked a crossing on my way to the station. At least though, he was blocking traffic too, so when I crossed on the green, it would have been impossible for any vehicle to against me cross as well.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.

Around the town centre…there are often groups of young men…often drunk or worse…sometimes peaceable…sometimes far from it.
Its not nice to be in the town centre and hear plenty of swearing.
I have to accept it these days that it is part of the vocabulary.
I worked in industry…and you never heard such words at all.
Question is…how is it going to be enforced?
