According to an article I read recently (and now can't find), Wandsworth Council have spent more money on CCTV than any other council in the country. Makes me feel enormously safe. safe from who? just leaves me fearing the council. saw a very nice mk2 the other day.

My Dad and i went down to Aldi one sunny Sunday morning to buy a Mig Welder, we got there a little early so sat in the car in the car park a waited for it to open, we were the first through the door and went home happy ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) next week my poor old Dad got a fine through the door for parking in the carpark, he was not a happy chap and called the phone number on the fine and they said it didnt matter that we had spent £200 in the store PAY THE FINE ! Dad went down the the store and showed the the receipt for the Welder and the £30 food shop i did and told the Manager what had happend, the Manager told my Dad not to worry and he would sort it which he did, Happy Days !!!!!!!!! ;D it's worth having a moan now and again.

That McDonalds at Gatwick is stupid, I got done there too.
I just carry fake plates with me - I don't care that its illegal - if I'm going to somewhere I know CCTV's your reg upon entry and fines if youre too long, I stick them on just before I arrive (like 10 yards out).
I think that sort of thing is tantamount to daylight robbery. Ill ALWAYS pay for parking meters and congestion charge etc but I point blank refuse to line some jumped-up companys pockets for things like that.

I LOVE that JPS MX5
Any more pics of it?
Oh and btw, these things with Aldi and McD's... the fines come from private parking firms, not LA controlled one, and as such you basically completely ignore the 'Parking Charge Notice' (not Penalty) and bin it. They can't do anything other than send threatening letters.
Go to a forum call Pepipoo if you get a PARKING charge notice. If you get a PENALTY charge notice then best pay it!

Tried to give one of our lorrys one of those parking thingys for being in Aldi too long when it broke down while delivering to the Aldi in question. They wouldnt back down either, it got quite nasty from what i heard between, our head office, their head office, Aldi's head office. Million quid milk contracts at stake over a parking fine! ANYWAY.......... ![](http://www.velocityfactor.net/wwwroot/ProdImages/MX5RaceCars.jpg) ![](http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r142/eskimo_god101/Mazda-Mx-5--256207-1.jpg)
