I don't know whether the saddest thing is that they argued about parking for ten minutes or more, that someone videoed it all or that I watched it.

It's rather warm at the moment so finding a nice shady spot in which to park in SW London can be quite challenging. This chap nailed it though.. at just about 6am this morning.

South West London? Some kind of tribute to Marc Bolan?

Or just a fud who made a thud. That doesn't look like an elm he hit, though.

That takes some doing at 20mph

clarion · « **Reply #536 on:** 18 July, 2014, 10:13:24 am »

Very heavy cars, them. Lots of kinetic energy, doncha know?

The Elm was removed about 20+ years ago.
And that is the entrance to a 20mph zone. No worries, it was across the road from a bike shop.

One from a few years ago that I've just refound

across the road from my old office in Chester

That's very impressively fuddish.

For a moment I thought that the trailer was a bridge and the fud in question was the driver of the dark-coloured car waiting to enter the roundabout

Yes, it's another driver who parks on a steep hill without using the handbrake.

Wish I'd had a camera tonight. Double yellows, smack on a junction, police car. Not an emergency either, unless a pie shortage qualifies as an emergency. Because as I passed two fat sweaty coppers were getting in, each clutching a plastic bag from the chippy round the corner.

No, not the addison lee driver, he's doing a three point turn because that's a through road for buses only, with a camera. The scaffolding lorry was there for over ten minutes parked pavement to pavement, wheels touching both sides. In rush hour. That's the driver standing at the back of it. I asked him if he could perhaps move back a couple of feet so he wasn't blocking the road, he said he couldn't as doing that would block the other road

A squirrel would never be stupid enough to park on park street without deploying a fully functional handbrake.
