  • Do you remember that case in London a couple of years back, bloke murdered a couple of girls, his lawyer put up a good defence and I think he was looking at community service, but then made the mistake of letting slip that he was a clamper and the judge sent him down for life with no parole

    I once had a 40ft trailer clamped on an industrial park. Unfortunately for them they clamped the first axle! Hitched it to a tractor picked the front axle up (air suspension) took it back to the yard were a acetylene torch made short work of it.

    It then became a feature with wild flowers and weeds growing around it in the corner of the yard for a few years, never heard anything about it!

    If I was clamped I would remove it!

  • That's the one! Couldn't remember his name, lol
  • Just to play Devil's advocate here...... He/She may not have been disabled, in which case, they probably deserve the stress a clamp brings. :cool:
  • Tip- try the "quote" function if you're replying to a post made earlier, Rimmer! Took a while before I realised you were replying to Adonis' post (I think!)
