An elderly flasher who was chased by one of two women he exposed himself too in Nailsea last New Year's Eve has been given a conditional discharge.

Seventy-six year old Geoffrey Griffiths has also been ordered to pay compensation to pub landlady Louise Thomas, after shutting her arm in the security door of the Hobbs Court housing complex.

The thirty-seven year old told North Somerset Magistrates he was under lights in the garden area, totally naked apart from his slippers.
