Dylan did all this on legal aid even though there at the time he had £35000 of cars on the forcourt, my brother got in trouble last year had a little bit of savings and could not get legal aid.
Dylans mum told my aunt that he got bail last monday untill his appeal against sentence again on legal aid, the law is an ass.
Dylan is as is girlfriend is an out of control ego maniac.

I feel sorry for the staff at Popes they treated me and my family really well.
James quoted my wife £160 inc vat for work on her car, when she got there Dylan James tried to charge her £397 plus vat, an older guy Ken Pemberton argued with Dylan and got the price back down to £ 160 plus Vat.
The mechanic there called Tim I think told me exaactly what was wrong with my and my mrs cars he is solid, non of the staff deserve Dylan John James.

I cannot believe that dirty rotten scoundrel got legal aid and is now out on bail, yes you are right the law is an ass.i would hate to work for that moron. I was told by an honest local garage owner how he used to bring cars to him for mot totally drunk out of his head.
Hats off to the local council for prosecuting him.
This man is a blatant and compulsive liar.
The garage is still open, surely no one who is local would use them for repairs or buy a car from them???

Daily Horoscope for May 23

Cancer

You have stars in your eyes and you're in a really romantic mood today. Your idea of heaven is to be with that special person in your life, preferably doing something very nice. If you meet someone new or a relationship gets off the ground today, things will always be rather dreamy and otherworldly between you. It will be as though real life, with all its problems, never intrudes on your time together.
