the snowflakes who come here who struggle to put anything together unless there's a template, then have to copy and paste it back and ask if it's the correct one.
I could not have summed them up better myself, but they are not snowflakes.
Snowflake occupy themselves pulling down statues of great explorers and empire builders, flexing their knees and taking offence on behalf of others.
Our clients watch football, read the Sun and buy marble worktops for their kitchen/diners. They have failed to make the best of the hand life has dealt them.You never know how far you can go until you go too far.0 -
@bargepole, we can always trust you to say it like it is, LOL!bargepole said:People who are stupid enough to eat the disgusting greasy muck served up in such outlets, and even more stupid enough to queue for 2 hours to get it, deserve everything that happens to them.
I agree with the first sentiment but of course not the second (no-one deserves an unfair parking charge) and we all know you don't really mean that people should pay CEL and not complain in droves to KFC.
There will be some shocking stuff going on from PPCs as we relax lockdown. Needs exposing in the press. The worst one brewing seems to be what Highview have asked DCBL to do (see other threads). Tesco will regret that. It's just like the Co-op/CEL debacle.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Sorry I've had to take advice off people on here because I've only ever had 1 PCN....now where is that ignore button for an ignorant so and so like you...you make me sickUmkomaas said:A few GDPR claims against landowners ( such as KFC franchisees) may sharpen minds a littleYeah, but who's going to do that? Needs more grit and resilience than that displayed by most of the snowflakes who come here who struggle to put anything together unless there's a template, then have to copy and paste it back and ask if it's the correct one.1 -
Nothing wrong with a McDonald's etc from time to time (although i wouldn't queue for one)we cant all be dining out on Aylesbury duck!
At least with this kind of places you get a decent standard where ever you go. I for one will be going for Mccies when i go past one and the queues are not stupid!
Doesnt mean i cant turn out a load of freshly made Chelsea buns and french sticks the next day

I had a big mac a few years ago, it was not at all bad. We had duck last week, it was lovely.You never know how far you can go until you go too far.1

Oh do come off it, he speaks the truth,You never know how far you can go until you go too far.2 -
I wasn't making you so sick when I provided a number of inputs to help you with your problem in your main thread on the forum - in fact you thanked me a number of times for my advice, most of which was being given while I was under lockdown in South Africa. You didn't consider me ignorant then either. Short memories on this forum at times.Nomad1967 said:

If you really want to ignore me, get on with it, it's fine by me, just hope you find that button soon!Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

KFC/Mc Donalds/Burger king etc fall under what i call the food to have while you are out, as opposed to places to go out to to get food.On the odd rare occasion i might have a KFC whilst out, but i wouldnt go out to have one, and if driving any distance and needing food anywhere i'd much rather find a local pub just off the motorway than use a MSA ( https://www.justoffjunction.co.uk/ combined with google maps often yields results far better than the offerings at a MSA - even if its a supermarket cafe)As for the sign, what are Maximum parking terms exactly? the picture of the parking charge notice states "Maximum 90 minutes free parking" so its quite clear that they as they were waiting in a queue and not in a parking bay, KFC though the actions of its agents could well be in breach of GDPRAll we can do is offer advice to those caught out by PPCs, hope they will fight back - most people don't - they just want shot of their "fine" but there are knowledgable people out there, and one day a PPC and its principal will meet its match possibly opening the floodgates for people to claim against PPCs and landowners ( jointly) to get their money back/compensation alá the PPI saga
