Thought it was a bit strange all flags and bunting out down Church Road in my village yesterday. 6pm I can hear amplified music so rush out with bottle of Stella to investigate. Parked on road 2 doors down from my back garden is a Transit truck with all equipment on and a Scotsman in regalia with medals adorning his chest. He gives a little speech and then on with the music. Neighbours all out keeping social distance some on chairs with a little table with booze on and all having a great time. A free pop-up concert in Christchurch! This was however soon spoiled by two plods in a van turning up. Someone had complained! So Transit told to bugger off. However we defiantly carried on drinking in the street. I have met some new neighbours and 8 bottles of Stella have been consumed from the stockpile.

Terrific race, the Scots!... Find out who complained and let their tyres down. Was your house the old "Farmer's Boy"?

Re: Illegal street party!
Yes thats where I live. Rough innit. You can see my classic car collection/junk and even the boat on google, just got room for a 7m Hymer??????? Turns out I know the Scottish person. He was never slim but is bigger and older now. He used to come to Karaoke in the pub. Sadly I didnt take any photos but there are some on the community Facebook page. You have to join to see posts. Think I can load them to my page but a bit in the dark over that one. Me and Reg are in the same Tech class lol. It actually started about 3pm stopping at various locations in the village we just happened to be second from last or as it turned out last indeed.
