  2. I bet the middle finger is accompanied by a big smirk. Congratulations on proving the system wrong.

  6. They obviously checked the statute books and found that just because your car presented a health hazard, you could not be done under parking laws...

    A few years ago, on my way home, and for good reason, I felt sick rising from the pit of my stomach. Slammed car into next available place as close to home as possible. Raced in. Threw up. Ten minutes later I had a ticket. Why anyone ever becomes a traffic warden is beyond me. Contested it. They sent me a letter. Which I didn't get. Consequently, a few months later I was summoned to court. Because I hadn't answered letter I'd never received. By now we were at £665 (including court charges). There are times in life, John, when, like the waterbabies in film of same name, we just need to go with the flow. At court hearing they were good enough to reduce my fine back to the original £225. So much for being sick. On spur of moment.

    Congratulations on your escape. Just don't it again. There is nothing like the long arms of the law. Only an octopus has more.

  17. These organizations never apologise or admit to being wrong do they?

  19. You won that one Johnno. Well done. Kind regards to the Parking Eye Team as well. Accompanied by a bit of humble pie on their behalf. Hey hang on a minute - weren't they supposed to say 'sorry?'

  20. A small but significant victory. Shove a spanner into the robot.

  21. Congratulations! Now, I hope your victory rubs off on me. My employer is charging me for parking on days that I work off site and do not access the parking lot. They claim they bill off the hours I work BUT the extra days I work are ten kilometres away from the parking lot I'm paying for!

    Wish me luck

      I''m totally confused, do you have to pay a yearly fee for a parking space that is yours whether you use it or not; or is it used by someone else when you are not there. The company then reimburse the parking fees for the days you are not there?

    2. My health authority charges our parking fees based on how many hours that they pay us. But we can only hold parking access at one facility. I have jobs in two facilities. I don't even drive to work on days when I work in the facility that I don't have parking access. But I still pay. It's not a designated spot, it's random parking that we fight the public for.

  22. I'm happy for you. I'm so happy I'm laughing, and it's my usual maniacal cackle that makes my son tell me to shut up and makes Willy Dunne Wooters so pleased that he can make me laugh.

    Love,
    Janie

  23. Good on ya! Parking fines always make me think of Chester, where I was fined £20 for a few seconds parking in a spot where there were no NO PARKING signs. I do hope they kept my expletive-filled letter; it took considerable thought.
