There was a result all right. The result was that on account of the temporary traffic lights put up to keep the traffic away from the hedge weavers I took an extra ten minutes in the car getting to Newport.
This may not sound like much to you, but the stab’n’steer princess (self proclaimed) was driving and I had a bit of a sore head following on from a graphics art exhibition in Bonchurch the night before!
