Perthshire ‘flashing’ postman is hopeful of keeping job

Thomson's sentence was deferred until November 6 at Perth Sheriff Court.
Thomson's sentence was deferred until November 6 at Perth Sheriff Court.

Sentence was further deferred on a postman who flashed at passing motorists as he stood in his garden with no trousers or underwear on.

Andrew Thomson has been ordered to be of good behaviour for six months and has been suspended from his job pending an investigation into his conduct.

Solicitor Rosie Scott told Perth Sheriff Court that her client hoped he would retain his employment despite the nature of his conviction.

The 44-year-old, of Fincastle, near Pitlochry, was found guilty of indecently breaching the peace after a string of witnesses told the police he was mowing the lawn naked from the waist down.

During his trial before Sheriff Fiona Tait, the court heard that Thomson exposed himself to several people by raising his arms as they went past so his T-shirt would lift up and expose the fact he was not wearing any underwear.

Despite his claims that he had been wearing a pair of boxer shorts, Sheriff Tait said she believed the evidence from witnesses.

Thomson was found guilty of conducting himself in a disorderly manner on August 9 last year at the B9019 Pitlochry to Tummel Road, at his home address while naked from the waist down, by exposing his private parts to passing motorists and committing a breach of the peace.

Sentence was further deferred to November 6 to allow him to be of good behaviour.
