The Speed Survey in the Village

I am thinking I may be in trouble here if the truth came out! It was an easy mistake I think, one hardly worth mentioning I think. But I think the ramifications could well be far reaching and one such ramification is building as we speak. I was on patrol the other morning up near the pub.

I couldn't go in as I was on my own and didn't have a lead (pub rules are that dogs must be on leads and under the control of a responsible adult.............probably least said about the last bit, the better). 'Twas then that I came across the object of an hour or so of my amusement and attentions. Laying in the road, well stretched across it actually was a big rubber snake, two of them in fact. So I bit it! The snakes appeared to be coming from a grey box that someone had chained to the telegraph pole and when I bit the snake it clicked, as if in some kind of protest. So I bit it again! And it clicked again! So I tried the other one and that clicked as well! This was fun! So I pounced on it and bit it at the same time and it clicked quite a lot at this so I did it again..... and again. This was fun. At one point there was one car came past and it clicked at that as well. But that was just Lady Manor Hoomun on her way to do the flowers at the church. I had great fun with that until it died and fell apart and I lost interest. I am thinking that I may have inadvertently been responsible for destroying a speed survey of cars going through the village and in some way responsible for it recording an abnormally high volume of traffic and doing some impossible speeds through the village. Oh dear! But it was such fun at the time! It gets worse! Because of these results Police Hoomun has given the village a speed camera and they are looking for volunteers! I am feeling a little apprehensive about the way The Owner is looking for his hi-viz jacket with a purposeful look in his eye. I will keep you informed.
