    mmmm scones are yummy....

    and yes, it's legal to clamp a car on your property. You can't have it towed though. But you must have a sign up. So print one out and stick it up!

    So you let them park there, then you put the warning sign up, then you clamp it. Not your fault he didnt see the sign is it, and i you lived closer I'd even borrow the clamps from our workplace for you.

    AArgh Pigpen, not the tins cupboard (s) OMG!!!! You are evil! Do you know how many are in there? What a nasty woman you are!!!

    :( Off for a sulk

    Ok I must have read your mind as I have a box I emptied in the kitchen, for doing exactly that (after I found tins out of date today:o ) so that spooked me the most, problem is now I have to do it, I could have just forgot to do it but now it's on the list!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
