Everyone knows that the parking attendents in Ross-on-Wye are very hot on dealing with any cars infringing the regulations, but there was an unusual sight in Ross today, Thursday, August 31st.

A bicycle parked in the lane between Cantilupe Road and Henry Street, adjacent to Ross Library, had a parking enforcement notice stuck to the saddle. A passer-by told the Ross Gazette that the bike had been there, with the ticket attached, for quite a while. But no-one knew when the parking ticket had been placed on the bike.

The resident suggested that perhaps someone had removed the ticket from a car and placed it on the bike as a prank.
