Default Feck - how much is a parking ticket & anyone got any excuses that work?

Forgot to send the text this morning.

Sent it now, but it's already too late :Bugger:

You might get away with it

I forgot I had gotten my weekly ticket on a thurs the week before and it wasnt until I was going back to the bike on the Friday after (so 2 days free parking) that I realised it - didnt get ticketed

Not from a parking bay pay by text, only from Soho which Mr Johnson had cancelled.
I've been using pay by text for a while but only very occasionaly lately.

Claim that you sent it this morning, not your fault that your mobile phone network delayed delivery

I mean why would anyone knowingly pay AFTER getting a ticket...

Yup that's probably what I'll go with. Be interesting to see what time it was issued.
I thought we all got one 'let off' anyway with the new system? or is that finished now?

Must go and protest some more to get rid of it.

Nope they did me for parking in a part suspended bay where the description of the suspension made no sense to me

"Bay suspended for 12 meters from the end closest to XYZ street"

Now I dont carry a tape measure and I dont know where XYZ street is

But I managed to be in the wrong part of the bay...

Its all ridiculous, they have 2 and a half bays out of commision at Paddington Station, I have had to park away from where I normally do today because of it, but despite having paid to park all this week, I have no guarantees I can get parked.
