First time I've seen it. It's not overly funny, but then I don't think that's really the point of the sketch.


I mean what are you saying Mick? That over-zealous parking enforcement officers should only be played by white people? Why?



I think this is the point of the sketch, beyond the comedy parking attendant nonsense. 'That over-zealous parking enforcement officers don't have to be white - and so what?'


I think it's a step forward, not a step back.

I think it's disgraceful because in place of humour (Paul Whitehouse used to be funny, even if Harry Enfield didn't), they've given in to rather pathetic middle-aged curmudgeonry: the traffic wardens are all out to get us and steal our hard-earned cash.


To be fair, the one you've posted there Mick, actually makes me quite admire Parking Patewayo and his chariots o'skills, but I've seen a couple of others that are so anti-parking warden it made me want to write a very stiff letter of rebuke to Harry and Paul.

I think it's offensive because not only is it not funny, but it's Harry and Paul written by Clarkson: traffic wardens disguised as bushes to catch the unaware..?


STOP PARKING WHERE YOU SHOULDN'T AND YOU WON'T GET A TICKET YOU UNFUNNY TEDIOUS FUCKS.


It's so offensive it makes me offensive.

Jah - please try to see that I am at least making an attempt at humour - every time I see your name now I expect to get a bollocking of some sort. If it looks odd at first sight it probably means something different from the obvious.


I don't know if she is 81 or not, but I think its very unlikely.

    • That explanation sounds highly unlikely!  Surely the "days of the week" plates must be a standard size. I know Royal Mail often appears incompetent, but it  couldn't be that stupid, surely. Was it 1 April?!  
    • Looking for a short length of electric (twin & earth)  lighting cable. Most likely there could be some in a skip near you??
    • Southwark's recycling guidance says to put shredded paper in the blue bin in a paper envelope or "small box". I've got far too much of it for that  (confidential stuff going back decades) - thanks to the EDF member who kindly gave me a shredder! It would be a "massive box". I have barely started  the shredding, and I've already got an extremely large bagful.   I've read online that you can put it into  large clear plastic bags in the bin for paper,  provided you  clearly label it "shredded paper" and it is obvious what it is. Does anybody know if Southwark would accept it like that? Alternatively, can anyone make use of it for animal bedding or packaging material or adding to  compost?
    • I'm happy to report that some foxgloves are now looking great in my garden. The bees are loving them. Also managed to grow some corn poppies from seed. I've left some decaying logs in the corner so maybe there are some stag beetles there.
