Question is, why did you get a parking ticket in the first place, you must have been illegally parked, in which case I have no sympathy, or was it something else.
I’ve had 3 parking tickets.
Number 1:- Great Dunmow, parked behind the Co-op in the council car park, had no change because I’d changed my jeans and forgotten to transfer my loose coins, spent 5 mins going to the co-op desk, buy a bar of chocolate, get some change, buy a 20p parking ticket, return to car to find some old scrote putting a ticket on my windscreen.
‘Errm, I’ve only been here 5 mins, I’ve just got some change and bought a ticket, you can’t do this’.
‘Snarf, snarf, they all say that, you’re a liar’.
Hold back the feeling of wanting to smash the arrogant piece of filths teeth in and march down the council offices, lovely girl on desk admits that the nasty piece of work is a little over enthusiastic and chucks ticket in bin, I suggest that he be sacked before his life well and truly becomes very difficult, never seen him since.
Number 2:- Went to the whatever concrete shopping centre in Cambridge to take my son and his mates to see Star Wars 1. Filled up the ticket machine, only to find the cinema full and had to go and see something else. I knew I was over running but you don’t tend to want to leave a film and little kids to top up your parking quota do you.
Returned to completely empty car park, 5 mins over, to find that some grinning little **** had just given you a ticket, unsympathetic piece of filth, his life was on the line, no point in taking time out to argue, fine quickly paid.
Number 3:- Went Christmas shopping in Cambridge, for those who don’t know, it’s a lovely place to do this, I digress.
I went to my usual parking spot and fed the meter, what wasn’t made apparent was that in this particular place, they had changed the time allowed, didn’t make it clear and were prepared to take as much of your dosh as they wanted without return, devious scumbags.
Despite having filled the meter with funds to provide Cambs DC with enough money to keep a punt going for a year, they didn’t want to know, you can’t argue with these gits, their heads are too far up their own backsides, local authorities on any level, they know best, don’t make me even think about these self opinionated, unhelpful over paid monsters, I hate them.
Cambridge, use Park n Ride… 😀 I feel you’re pain though
I very nearly got caught. Traffic Warden got on his high horse saying that “I WILL BE ISSUEING TICKETS NEXT TIME” He was a right hitler, and smaller than me too, and I’m only about 5′ 6″!!
