I think he replied that he had two problems, if I understood his sign language correctly. I didn&#8217;t get the chance to clarify, because he turned off at Meadow Lane towards Chilwell and refused to make eye contact (always a sign of guilt).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Silver Mercedes with prat-plates &#8211; Reg.
