Some never learn (or don’t care)
OK. I’m still unemployed and as a result I spend most of my time at home. I get to see the in’s and out’s of what’s happening outside my flat. Think of me as the neighbourhood watch person!!
Anyhoo, this morning a person parked their car on the other side of the road to my block of flats. That’s normal? Not if you have the car facing the other way! Yes, this happens to people from time to time. I don’t know what could possibly be on their minds when they do that. I guess there could be countries in the world where that is OK.
The parking officers are hardcore in my council and before I knew it they had a ticket for parking on the street facing the wrong way. That was this morning. The car was there until after lunch and then they left.
BUT…
I’ve justed noticed that the car is back AND THEY’VE PARKED IN THE SAME SPOT AND FACING THE WRONG WAY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What’s wrong with that person??????? I should be a good samaritan and put a note on their windscreen or something. Or maybe after they get their second ticket they will learn.

Maybe they think they’re helping the council raise funds.

dabido65 – This council doesn’t need more funds. The parking guys are ruthless. I once saw (out my window of course!) an inspecter start writing a ticket to a guy who had just got out of his car instead of asking the guy the move. Stupidly, the guy didn’t actually realise what was happening and walked away and so he got a bit of a “surprise” when he came back (I happened to be looking out the window at that moment as well!)
lisa – that title goes to my neighbour upstairs. She knows EVERYTHING about the block. Its eerie
