Fishmonger sings hot tub blues

A fish merchant has been fined after an unsympathetic judge heard about noisy early-morning sing-songs in a hot tub.

Charles Roach, 35, lost his appeal at Hull Crown Court against fines by JPs for breaching noise abatement orders when friends sang in his garden tub.

Judge Tom Cracknell told him: "It is bad enough people singing Yellow Submarine in a hot tub at 9pm, let alone at nine in the morning".

He was fined £1,500 and his stereo kit - worth £1,200 - was confiscated.
