Get a bike, then you can be like Brillo. I don't mean because you'll be able to park, but because you'll be sweaty and unpopular.

If I get in before 7:30 then its only 50 metres walk to the office but if I get in after then it can be anything up to 100 which is a real pain on a day like this when it was -5 outside. I had to have 2 coffees just to warm up

Originally posted by I just need to test it View PostAnyway. My car is a 10 year old dirt-covered tool with 170K miles on the clock, covered in scratches and scrapes. But that's not the point here. I haven't sat through 90 episodes of "Dexter" and learned nothing. When my contract ends I want to nip over and lie in wait for this git.

Rule 1 is never work at site where contractors are treated as 2nd class citizens ie cannot park car on site.
Rule 2 is make exception if client has no car park.
As far as resident's 'damaging' a car, report it to the police. Yes, i know they'll do **** all but that's not the point.
You've paid road tax \ VED so you can legally park anywhere parking is permitted.I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

I am with the residents on the housing estate. Why should they suffer?
I hope they lie in wait for you to return to their car. Rip your head off and poo down your throat.
The only solution is to get Churchill in there on a gig.....Comment
