The other shame is that yesterday 17th I received a £40 fine for parking in Aldi car park at Retford - I was 22 minutes over the allowed time - at midnight. Cheeky twonks wotta money grabbing scheme, must construct a letter...............  |

 This made me smile, similar thing happened to me twice recently, I parked in somerfield car park and had my pound coin ready for the meter only it was £2, which I didn't have in change, so I went inside, bought two scotch eggs and came out to buy a ticket, too late I'd got a notice on my windscreen to pay £60, I argued but they would have none of it, but said if I paid it that week I could pay £35. Sweet. Does that make you feel better ? ...this might, the same week I took my daughter back to uni in Nottingham, drove into the grounds of the Hicking building, unloaded her ( very heavy)things and took them up to the flat - 10 mins tops, when we went back to the car it was clamped ! We had to pay £125 right there or no go Bloody jobsworth, money racketeering thieves! I hate them private security firms.....except when they are keeping my daughter safe of course. Just noticed Ashley that this is posted in events.... erm, I went to the Bar life in Skeggy last night and didn't get a parking ticket
