Phoenix mou I only use this term for Lena who I feel justified in using this term for. I use it for you as an .....ironic term. ony kidding! In fact I'll use it for you for ever now just coz it winds you up!

GR, fantastic idea! I was totally careless. People said "tickets are rare here" HAH!!!! The daft thing is you can't just send payment, you have to go into the offices (and both are different) to be punished even more - oh joy.

2 parking tickets in 2 days! I was told tickets are rare!

One of them (for £50) was along a pavement with no yellow lines and lots of other cars parked in the same place. How was I supposed to know?

Are they having a parking ticket spree?

Sorry to hear that Niki mou. The same thing happened to me in March. I was parked on the road, no yellow lines, no other sign to say 'no parking' (I deliberately checked for them!) and I was sandwiched between 2 other cars which were actually parked on the pavement. It was outside my friend's shop and as I was no longer in the area she intervened on my behalf. Alas, to no avail. I received a 15 pounds fine as the warden thought it unfair not to give me one when the other 2 vehicles were getting them!!! What kind of justice is that

When I went to enquire about it I was told I had to pay first even if I wanted to appeal I could not see the head honcho, so basically I got nowhere and to add insult to injury when I enquired why the cars parked on double yellow lines outside the office were not being issued with tickets, I was given the answer "They are here paying their fines" I had to laugh

You just have to laugh or you'd cry Bubbles!
