Record producer's dog mess fine

A record producer who wrote the number one hit There's No-one Quite Like Grandma has been fined for a second time for not clearing up after his dog.

Gordon Lorenz was fined £175 by Llandudno magistrates after his spaniel fouled a grassy area at the resort's West Shore.



Lorenz, 59, who has recorded the likes of Charlotte Church and Atomic Kitten, was also ordered to pay £150 costs.

He was fined in 2008 after a dog called Bertie fouled a beach and cycle path.

He should have been fined for this.


Lorenz has made more than 800 recordings of performers such as Shirley Bassey, Cliff Richard and Petula Clark.

His song, There's No-one Quite Like Grandma, by the St Winifred's School Choir, was a hit in 1980.
