A Load'a Bull
The day had finally arrived... I intentionally woke up early, because I had still a number of things to do. I had to pack the remaining items of clothing and various household items, which I had accumulated after I moved out of the family home. The reason for me taking such drastic measures, was due to the fall-out of my pending court hearing. I moved into a crappy little bedsit in Stoke Poges. (Near Slough). I finished off gathering up those last articles and loaded them into my car; then to be transported to my lock-up in Maidenhead. I had to be at Reading Crown Court for 10.30 am... My plan; was to store the last of my stuff in a rented garage, then drive over to an industrial estate in Langley (near Slough). There I would park my car, then walk around the corner to the railway station. From there, I would catch the 09.25 to Reading.I knew that the Court was only a few minutes' walk from Reading railway station, so it would make sense to leave my car somewhere safe in Langley, then travel by rail to Reading for my court appearance. I had waited nearly a year for this day to arrive, having been to the Maidenhead Magistrates Court twice to have my offences referred to Crown. I wasn't going to bother with any kind of legal representation, after all, I was guilty as hell, and the authorities had me banged to rights! I was ex-army, and knew that when one was caught doing something wrong, one held up ones hands and accepted the consequences, and the punishment without question.
