Does Dippy have relatives?

 






 

 

 

"Police investigating allegations of vandalism linked to a row involving the Broads Authority are hunting for two suspects.


The organization contacted Norfolk Constabulary after some of its riverside mooring signs were emblazoned with stickers calling for the resignation of its chief executive, John Packman.


He is the focus of a growing mutiny by boaters angered at a recent 13pc increase in boating tolls and the way the Authority is run.


The BA says the stickers - which say "Packman Must Go" - are a form of bullying.
It has passed police CCTV footage which shows two people putting the stickers on one of the signs, as well as the car they arrived in.


A BA spokesman said “CCTV cameras have provided clear images of two people applying stickers to Authority property along with their car registration number.


"This evidence has been presented to the police who are taking the matter seriously and will decide what action is appropriate.”


He said the signs carry “vitally important” safety information while defacing the signs is irresponsible and would divert BA and police resources.  He added: “We would urge those involved to raise their issues directly with the Authority.” "


Oh no, the CEO of the Broads Authority is being bullied by a dragonfly - perhaps he should check the Authority's logo to see if it's a relative. If so, that would be a good way of tracing Dippy without the involvement of the police.

More seriously, is CCTV picking up car registration numbers of all vehicles that park on Reedham river frontage? It's more likely that someone used their phone to snap the number plate!

Please note that any issues with the Broads Authority should be taken up directly with the Authority. If anyone does this and receives a response, it would be interesting to know the content.

Dippy, valued as your thoughts are, please could you revert to a more legible typeface? The pseudo-script is really hard to read on a small phone screen & I regret missing your insightful and generally excellent posts. Thanks 😘

Many apologies for the size of words. As a dragonfly, Dippy has almost 80 percent of his brain dedicated to sight and forgets that mere humans don't have this capacity!

Thanks Dippy! It's much easier to read now....but you really didn't have to get up at 4am (although I do admire your diligence, on so many levels 🤗)
Big hugs and keep up the great work 😘
