29 June (Part 1) - Priests and prayers. Police and parkers
The end of the month again, a time when the more important news is held over
for the new month, so today just a bit of trivia.
Lesnes Abbey is frequently the setting for wedding photos and the occasional
religious service. One such event was held yesterday and in common with all the
others caused minor local parking difficulties. Generally one or two residents find
their own vehicles trapped on their own drive.
Whilst parking across dropped kerbs (Photo 2 below) may be inconsiderate there is always one parker who does something
rather special. This time it was parking in the cycle track. (Photo 3.)
The local PCSO waited around in the sunshine to have a friendly word. He has no
power to issue a penalty, that’s solely a Bexley council job and on Sundays
they tend to restrict themselves to the richer pickings to be had in town centres.
