For six years youngsters have enjoyed the red van outside a shoe shop but owner Sherryl Granger has been warned for not having a licence and posing a health and safety risk. She received a letter from precinct manager Shelley Filipi telling her to get rid of the ride at St Mary’s Place, Market Harborough. Mrs Granger said: “I have never known anything so petty. It’s just a van that rocks up and down to the Postman Pat tune. Thousands of children have ridden on it. Even more people have walked by and we have never a complaint.” Derbygripe.co.uk 2/07.
