I was in trouble a wile back with a traffic warden.

In my car with the engine running waiting for my business partner to return to the car. I was on the phone to our office and this is out side a shop in Finchley.

First thing I saw was a ticket appear under my wiper which was still on intermittent at the time so it began to occasionally sweep across the screen. Anyway out I get to inquire as to what the F*ck he thinks he's doing and why he hadn't just told me to move on, it was a single yellow line at the end of a bay of metered spaces.

Now I must admit I did growl at him but he did smirk at me first.

Anyway he slipped over as he turned to run away and then got on his radio saying he was being assaulted. I shouted in to his radio that I hadn't assaulted him but I would if he didn't stop ****ing Lying.



Anyway one interview with the police later, all was well




Scum can be cleaned away, Wardens are here to stay



They must struggle to get a good nights sleep though a, To**ers

Can't complain really if yer break the law. It's a bit like a burglar saying '' But I only broke in for a minute ''

I get a few tickets a year but I park on yellows for a few minutes every week to save time. The fines are worth paying for the time saved, smile & pay up.

Anyway he's probably got targets to meet just like everybody else.

( And no I'm not a traffic warden )

Id say you were on at best dodgy ground, if you have got better things to do with your time and most of us have, pay up and learn the lesson.

I got a ticket on Monday because I couldnt be arsed to move my wifes car, you hardly ever see wardens near us, but one was and he did us for waiting too long in the so called free car park.

Cheer up some scum could have nicked your new bike then you would have had something to gripe about.

Some interesting feedback there. Prefer Eric's attitude to YMFB's though. Anyway, I've shut up about it. End of.

Just got in from a nice girlie night out with a good meal and some good chat. All's well with the world.

Sounds like you got traffic warden tendencies to me.


This one must have started writing as i pulled up, walked up the road and slapped it on, no waiting time just like a vulture. not your normal traffic warden, I'm talking new breed
