parking tickets!!!

by Fry-Up, 18-06-2018, 01:09 PM

I got one today, altho I was under the impression that lets say you park your car in a pay and display, and haven't got change for the ticket, u have a little lee-way to grab one, and i'd heard that if a traffic warden sees a car without a pay and display ticket, they have to wait a certain amount of time before issuing a fine? can anyone confirm??

it was a council parking ticket, not a police one or private one

Interesting I-phone add on

Looks like the Innovate Moorsports have a good toy for Iphone users, LINK a proper OBD2 application. The link is to the USA site but it is available in the UK through http://www.grahamgoode.com/

mazda rx-8 231ps

by Chri5, 16-06-2018, 05:55 PM

i am in the middle of choosing a new car and have looked at several but i am now being swayed towards the rx-8
does anybody know anything about them???
how well do they go
servicing/running costs
do they drift well???
although 4 seater can you fit ppl in the back???

i am also looking at skylines but tbh dont think i can afford the runniing costs atm which is a bummer but c'est la vie lol

A big Thank you

I would like to send out a big thank you to Mrs Mole for the kindness of making many cakes for the members of the club.

Mrs Mole brought these along to the WIM meet.

I suppose we need to thank Mr Mole as well:biggrin:

Thank you both very much it was very kind of you both:thumbup:

Well popped out today for a coffee from a local garage, just about to leave the counter when the manager comes over to me and tells me that a lorry has just hit my car!!





Was a big car transporter, not only did he gouge the bumper but the tyre and alloy also have a big lump taken out of them

Thankfully the insurance is paying for it, no affect on my NCD or excess

Back of my hols!!!!

Came home yesterday after 2 weeks cooking my a$$ in Turkey as the temp never got below 34'c to find that some scrote had given me half a nice house brick through my rear window!!!!

Even parked it down my girlfriends drive as she lives in a cul-de-sac where nothing happends, next door spotted the kid accross the street chucking apple at his car and told him to do one, we think that hes tried to get his own back by chucking the brick but hitting my car intead!

Cost me £75 to get it replaced................

American Story True Story

To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last.
Date: 2009-05-27, 1 :43 a.m. E.S.T.
I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.
First, I'd like to apologize for your embarrassment; I didn't expect you to actually **** in your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket.. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.. My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head ... isn't it?!
I know it probably wasn't fun walking back to wherever you'd come from with that brown sludge in your pants. I'm sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].
After I called your mother or "Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you'd done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those of four other people in the gas station, -- on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!
I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]
I then threw your wallet into the big pink "pimp mobile" that was parked at the curb .... after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver's side of the car.
Later, I called a bunch of phone *** numbers from your cell phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what 's going on with that? Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA's office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target.
The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number etc..).
;In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you ... but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the career path you've chosen to pursue in life. Remember, next time you might not be so lucky.Have a good day!
Thoughtfully yours,
Alex
