No not you lot, Traffic Wardens. Yesterday spent half an hour looking for somewhere to park, found a pay and display bit and ?2 bought me just over an hours parking. Was always going to be tight as had to park about half a mile from where I needed to go, and annoyingly the mac I was working on had the wrong time on it, was only 20 minutes out *mutters* but made it out on time and now had a mad rush to get back to my car, only problem was couldn?t remember where I parked it and all the damn roads looked the same, eventualy though managed to track it down and arrived at my car at 17:40. Now my ticket was set to expire at 17:38 and yup you guess it had a fecking parking ticket. ?50 damn quid for 2 minutes parking

You just know the warden was stood there waiting for the ticket to expire, don't you?

Traffic wardens are gits it's true, but the person who decided to give traffic wardens bonuses based on how many tickets they give out are why that traffic warden will have waited till your ticket expired before ticketing you and moving on... so "clever" git thought up the idea of encouraging that nasty vindictive behaivour... they're the ones who I think deserve the ire the most.

Of course you could just get a motorbike and park for free...

See them hovering all around the car parks here.

Think the solution I'll take is make sure theres cars before me where it doesn't seem the owners are going to be back in time.

Hopefully they'll hang around them instead of mine ^^

I'd have paid the fine just to see you run the half mile and the look on your face!
