I appreciate it's going off topic, but do you still have the paperwork showing 34mph?
Sites such as Pepipoo (currently offline) have never managed to find a case prosecuted below the original ACPO guidelines, which say prosecutions should only start at 10% + 2mph, so 35 in a 30, 46 in a 40 etc.
 

Perhaps to my shame over 40 years of driving around the country I have picked up a few.All but one regarding the 30 mph limit plus one on the M1.

That particular one was at least 30 years ago as I exited the A1 near Grantham and it was a roadside police camera.

No I don’t have the paperwork but reverting to my comment I would not have been voting for fines when they applied to me 😁 even if it was for 35 mph.

That would probably explain it, before the ACPO guidelines; I can recall someone, in a red top paper, with the usual sad face holding up a 31mph ticket from North Wales, but have never re-found it.

As you said it is a guideline only and this one was also in Lincolnshire 😁

Again you have the wrong end of the stick. That would be the equivalent of parents taking there kids on holiday during the exams, few would do that.

I maintain that fines make little difference other than to **** off parents, and they have certainly ****ed us off big time. In fact, rightly or wrongly, we blame the school, thus we do not feel as positive toward the school as we did.

Not really.  You clearly have issues when you feel others are stopping you doing something you want to do.  Most of us grow out of that in adulthood.  
Let’s say a lot of your staff wanted a certain week off and you’d struggle to run your business through being short staffed.  What do you do?  Say, ‘no problem, I don’t want to tell you how to live your life or **** you off, you can all have that week off’.
