People lik eyou appealing parking tickets and abusing traffic wardens realy annoy me.
The rules on parking and therefore wardens are there for a reason. The reason is the free flow of traffic for all.
If everyone ignored parking rules there would be chaos.
What do you mean you couldnt park anywhere else? Did you not say there was a convenient Sainsburys car park at a very reasonable 2 quid? Are you too tight or too lazy?
If you don't like th parking restrictions in your area then move.
Stop complaining when it is you that is at fault and stop inconveniencing the rest of us.
HTH.
Many times it doesn't make sense though, My mate had the misfortune of Living in Wembley, he lived on a quiet street, but had to pay to park outside of his house (they brought it in while he lived there), Now why should he have to pay to park outside his house? He paid >1500 a year in council tax, it beggars belief. You could say it's to stop people parking to go to the stadium, well if so , why charge for permits for residents? It's just a money making scheme.
I once parked in an uncontrolled street, however the road was fairly narrow, so out of courtesy I placed two wheels on the grass verge, and I got a ticket, absolutely ridiculous.
I remember the good old days of this site when people used to moan about serious contractor related issues like house prices and immigration. How times have changed!?

Ok may be I didnt explain this well enough, agreed parking tickets are issued for a purpose keep the traffic flowing. In my case though it was a one hour window I couldnt park outside my house that had no impact on traffic flow, in fact the parking restriction was to protect the recidents from people parking then going to the station, but no one ever parked that far from the station.
Just so your clear, the council AGREED with me that the parking restriction for the one hour failed to achieve anything, and they also informed me that it was being dropped in Sept 2007. So I dont feel guilt about anything.
