I went down to the Civil Service Sports Ground earlier today. In only a few days the travellers have started to make a mess and there is quite a bit of litter around. Some eggs appear to have been thrown at one of the windows of the school.
I was struck by how nice and new all the traveller vehicles were. The motor homes were almost all 06 registration. I saw one 05 registration. These travellers are clearly not short of a bit of cash! I certainly can't afford a brand new car. Then I suppose if I didn't have Council Tax and a mortage, income tax, VAT, car tax etc. to pay, I could afford a nice new vehicle.
I spoke to the Shirley police just a moment ago. I have been assured that the police intend to evict the travellers today.
I will post any updates as and when I receive them.
Update 16:41: The Travellers have now been removed by the police. If they return they are liable to be arrested.

Good to see that the Police moved quickly to prevent any further damage to the sports fields. Your comments about their new vehicles made me smile - how true it is! All the best Hugh. hughsandeman.co.uk
