Whilst driving to Bournemouth with his wife John Holme noticed how unhappy the people caught in a traffic jam at Ashley Heath roundabout on the spur road near Ringwood. I think that they need cheering up he said to his wife and so the next time he was in the area donned his DJ and entertained the unsuspecting motorists to gentle strains of the like of Rogers and Hammersteinss. The motorists kindly responded by throwing anything from £25 - £40 an hour at him and so encouraged by their appreciation he continued for the next 8 years until such time that an underpass alleviated the problem. Task completed he moved on to the next 'witty invention'
