Love to know what he was issued a ticket for, litter, parking or what?

    Sounds reasonable to me, we cannot have selfish [EMAIL="r@rseholes"]people, [/EMAIL] disabled or not, trying to apportion for themselves, parking space which should be available to everyone.


    If chummy wants his own private space the he should buy a house with off street parking.

  • He was issued with a fixed penalty notice for unauthorised marks on the highway.

    And the council will have the expense of burning off or blacking out the unauthorised marks and any repairs to the road surface required.
