  • In this thread the OP has taken it upon himself to litter cars (and carparks) with unsolicited flyers, possibly damaging wiper blades, glass and impairing visibility, .

    What a load of tosh, they would cause far less problems than sticky plastic envelopes.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    Some supermarkets have "community information" notice boards. How about attaching one of these notices there?
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?
  • Oh the irony of our PPC operative with his fake concern for motorists receiving an unsolicited flyer. No such concern for the motorists on whose cars he places unsolicited begging letters every day. Of course the real reason our PPC contributor is worried is nothing to do with nonsensical possibilities of damage to cars but that the PPC racket might be exposed and he might have to find a job that does not involve leeching off the backs of his fellow hard working citizens.

    They'll probably remove it if they think it's in their best interests, which if the supermarket gets backhanders it probably will think so. Is my mind making it up or did a Morrisons store decide not to sell a newspaper because it had a scathing front page about parking issues at their store?

    Perky doesn't like this thread with his name in the title, staying on page one all the time at the moment.

    And he (aka Arthur & Terry) knows that if we ALL took a leaf out of Driver8's book and leafleted in our area enough, word would spread a lot quicker. Not everyone looks on the internet but most people have to go to Supermarket car parks at Christmas...also in leafleting random cars we are no doubt informing the staff and Management at the Supermarkets about the true position of these fake fines as well!

    Perky has thrown his toys out of the pram again but there's nowt he can do to stop people putting flyers on cars when that's EXACTLY what his minions do every day, on his say-so, to pay for his holidays.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    You ever heard of Google Street?

    Is that like Sesame Street?
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    I don't see the connection with 1939. Have the PPCs invaded Poland?
    No, but they distribute false propaganda in the hope of subverting the population.

    Umm, I would suggest you consider who's baiting who. :D

    I can only encourage you guys to plant flyers all over cars. The more people are informed, the less opportunity to whine when they are pinged and the less sympathetic the parking staff. And it's all being done on your time and printer.
