I have the same Lynne two cars have arrived and eight people piled out with cans of beer and bags of snacks a party me thinks.

I don't see how we can avoid further peaks if we relax rules, I'm happy with the police enforcing as they are.  I don't have a lot of time for Anne Marie Morris criticising them, especially young inexperienced police.  Let's face it in her case with age comes wisdom certainly doesn't apply.
