Sad, sad people with little in their empty lives i guess.
That scene from Lock Stock where they find a warden in the back of the van with them always springs to mind when i hear of this type of jobsworth...but i'm not advocating violence in anyway, OK. Thats just wrong too.
Look what those supposed "bikers" did to that one felss outside a funeral in London recently. Bad news.


If you do get a ticket it will be easy to contest it so dont sweat it too much and PM me if a ticket/Notice to Owner arrives in the post so i can give you some advice that will clear it

thanks i'll be sure to let you know

Urgh I hate them! My mate had come to visit me last week, I gave hima visitor's permit and he parked in a Permit parking bay outside my house. He got a ticket cos the premit slipped on the dashboard so that you couldn't see the bottom third of it under the windscreen!! You could still read it if you leant over! We are contesting, those utter utter jobsworths.

i dont know whats going on with me at the mo but ive just been to sainsburys to get something for mi dinner i parked next to a pushbike at what looked to be a bike parking spot and when i came out theres a ticket warning me that if it happens again i'l be charged, i think im gonna go on the dole and just stay in bloody bed

Ah, dont let em get you down mate. Its like a game of cat and mouse is all.

I regularly park in a pushbike space at supermarkets if they dont have any alocated motorbike parking. Or right outside the windows so i can keep an eye on it while going round the shop.

Saying that i do also have a numberplate that is held on by velcro so is easliy and quickly removed and taken with me when i park on pavements and my tax disc is in my wallet.... So what info will they put on a ticket and who are they gonna send a letter to????

Play the game my friend...just dont let the buggers wear you down

One supermarket i went into sent the secuirty guy to tell me to take my lid off while i shoped. I was only popping in for 1 item so i wasnt gonna take it off.

I asked him if he'd also like me to take my pants off..or maybe that lady over there, should she take her dress off for you? He was a bit taken aback until i gently said "there is no sign in your doorway advising i cant wear a crash helmet in here and as far as i'm concerned its an item of clothing i'm wearing and you have no right to tell me to take my clothes off...do you?"

People laughed, children cheered and he walked away looking silly.

OK, noone really laughed or cheered but you get my point.

lol they hate us dont they, and no Melody i dont have any mirrors cos they remind me how ugly i am

You think traffic wardens hate us? No mate they hate themselves. Why else would they take a job where they are pre warned of daily verbal and physical abuse by 99% of the public they will encounter and are taught (in london anyway) to not talk to the public at all if they can avoid it as it will only lead to confrontation?

Would you take a job if they told you that? No matter how much it paid? And guess what they dont earn much either. They could argubaly earn more working double shifts at KFC and at least the people they encountered there would not hate them the moment they laid eyes on them.

Ive done some work in the past that has meant "taking advatage" of the general public and trying part the fools from their money but i got paid big big bucks for it. Can you tell i'm in sales btw, lol.

Around here they go around the nottingham ring road on scooters at 5am....if peoples car are so much as an inch off the end of their driveway onto the path then they get a ticket.

There is a patch of grass at the front of all the houses on the ring road which people used to park on, its apparently owned and maintained by the people in the houses. One morning on the way to work upto 20 cars had tickets, it was in the paper and they all appealed and failed.
