Traffic wardens on Lordship Lane having a field day (Lounged)


Recommended Posts

They have been making a killing recently, and for once, touch wood, I have not been fined!


One thing they have been doing which is not really on - the lorrys who load outside Barclays. Everyday, one of them stops there, and everyday the warden shoots down on his scooter to catch them.


Is there anywhere else they can load?

The best time to see a traffic warden down Lordship Lane is around 4pm (or is it 4.30pm?) weekdays when the 30 minute parking allowance stops. My wife tells me they turn up on mass with split second timing, knowing that there will be plenty of cars caught out by the restriction.

*Heavy sigh*


Isn't that what the Nazis used to say?



Yes, kford, that's right.

Placing parking tickets on illegally parked vehicles is exactly the same as commiting horrifc acts of genocide. Not.




Oh god here we go again

Don't want the same responses? Don't start the same discussion.


Oh and if there was humour in the first post, I certainly didn't see it.

I wish there had been a warden around a couple of weeks back, when a stupid sports car double parked outside Somerfield for ages. Stopped all the traffic on the lane. The guy seemed to be waiting for someone doing the shopping. Traffic backed up to the police station and beyond. I did go up to the car and made a comment to the driver, but I think his expensive glass prevented him from interacting with the real world.

How can people call traffic wardens nazis & get away with it ? whereas I once described *a certian group of East Dulwich Businesses* as such ( with its basis this particular groups support for Hitler during the early '30s in germany ) and I got bollocked ?


Tsk


Its political correctness gone mad...one rule for them etc...

A bit harsh on seanmlow? - I read his first post as having a flippant tone.


As for traffic wardens just doing their job, I'm sure many of them are responsible and honest people whose mothers love them, but there has been plenty of media coverage (and recent comment on the forum) about tickets being issued unfairly and even illegally in London.

I was a bit grumpy this morning maybe, but not that harsh I don't think.

All I said in response to Seanmlow's inital post was that whether you see traffic wardens as "having a field day" or just getting on and doing what they're paid to do (ie their job) depends on your point of view.


Hardly a snorky-esque rant.

wasn't having a go at you Anna, onist, or any one person. Just thought the balance of the thread was being a bit grouchy towards seanmlow and was trying to redress.


Peace to all an that.


except Snorky's employer, obviously. Not a large Swiss bank, by any chance? :)

    • Hopefully the Canada Geese were being culled - I'm being serious.  It's permitted
    • You might be interested in watching this video on you tube. It's from a wildlife gardener called Joel Ashton who regularly posts about his work in that area. Being interested in that kind of thing I follow him a lot. Anyway, a few days ago he posted about his plants being deliberately poisoned allegedly by his neighbour. He is going through the process of taking legal action and videoing this journey. There is another follow up which he posted a couple of days ago . It might be helpful to you. I think I should point out that the alleged culprit is not identified on the video so not breaking any privacy laws in sharing this.  
    • Around ten days ago there were around 6 Mallard ducklings and the same number of Canada Goose goslings. Today, not one to be seen 😥
