And i did not call you a dodger or anything derogatary

And you seem to be missing the point here in that I didn't know I was doing anything wrong because the council told me it was OK to park there without tax.

unfortunately in a court of law Ignorance is no defence and you must have a friend with a driveway that you could have towed it to and that would not cost anywhere near 300 quid.

Sorry Rizzla if i have offended you, it was not my intention

They'll put 2 and 2 together and the next thing is you might end up with your tyres slashed or a brick throughg your window.

Some people are nice like that.

If that is the case then i shall retaliate in kind :P

I aint scared of either of them
