Narrow escape at the Post Office............

[squern]

Had a narrow escape at the Post Office yesterday:
Outside is a pull-in which takes two vehicles (it used to be bigger, but the Council shortened it to bring us into the 21st Century (?? don't ask). So people now park on the pavement while they use the P.O. As I did.

When I came out, I found a traffic warden just getting his gizmo out. I asked if he was going to book me, and he said "I will, if you don't shift this car sharpish". Well, we got chatting, and out of the corner of my eye I could see people coming out of buildings, jumping into illegally-parked cars and driving off.

After a few minutes of discussing our mutual loathing for silly parking restrictions, the warden and I parted - the best of pals.
By now, the street was completely empty of cars. Deserted.

I expect my reward will be in Heaven.

I thought everybody had a disabled parking blue badge nowadays - at least they seem to in this town.

Yes, but you have special priveledges - as birthplace of The Great Leader

Well done!

Who Clegg?

I don't think Clegg was actually born.
I think he was made by a committee, from offcuts of failed politicians/estate agents/timeshare salesmen.

This made me literally "laugh out loud". Brilliant! hahahaha!
