What are your thoughts on having to go to work tomorrow to make someone else rich?

What if you're self-employed?

It’s fucking hilarious how many people don’t get the joke

Go and get the Sean Dyche meme.

Big John Mitchell front and centre!

Saw there’s an Aussie sports journalist who’s got the same name getting shit all day yesterday too

There’s no need to call out Floyd like that

The bafta thing has annihilated my social media. Doesn't show any sign of letting up. And there's an inverse correlation between understanding tourettes/race relations and feeling the need to chime in.

ParkingEye parking charges - ignore or will they take you to court?

[1500 Dollars a Day]

They won’t but they can.

If it’s just the one you could ignore it but they’re a pain in the arse for a while getting on at you.

Where do you get that? I got one at the commonwealth pool as I forgot to put my registration into the computer when there, when I explained to the reception staff they got the ticket cancelled

[King Kebab]

Unless it's the council, ignore it.

Meadowbank.

It was my Mrs and she’s already ignored a couple and decided to tell me when the letters are getting more threatening I’m assuming it’s too late now to go to meadowbank and try and sort it out. Hopefully she gets the jail.

I’m sure if you find an understanding member of staff you could get them quashed.

One staffer at the commie told me “we will quash the first but can’t keep doing it”. I’d forgotten my ticket so went back to the car and when I came back it was a different member of staff who said “anytime it happens just let us know and we will fix it”

Just commit to bumping it now - they’ve probably already started adding cash to the initial fine.

Don’t phone them that’s when you get absolutely hounded. I parked with a guest pass thing that fell off my window at my in laws and they were utter cunts about it on the phone. Said they didn’t care so I gave it the whole “I’ll see you in court!” and they just threatened more and eventually gave up.

Depending who takes it you might get folk doing public info searches on you, somehow they got my parents house number and used to phone them My da was trying to get me to pay some ridic £800 fine because he thought the heavies were going to turn up and take his telly.

It used to be the case under Scots law that you could pie them with impunity. That changed a couple years ago.

I've no idea how far they'll chase you, if they'll go all the way to court but they're in their rights to. Rory's plan of asking the venue to scrub it might've worked if you weren't on a final warning.

[Zizou]

Cheers lads. I think it’ll just have to be an ignore it job. They are the worlds worst Cunt’s like, imagine doing that for a living

[Giza Brek]

If it's not the cooncil I wouldn't worry about it, the letters are designed to make you shite it but they'll give up eventually as long as you keep the heed and keep fucking the letters in the bin.

[Grooto Toure]

One of those things where you'd need to rack up a bunch of them to make it worth their while going to court

Lassie in Dundee ripped the pish for months and racked up a ton of them and she got screwed in court

Have there been any cases in Scotland of someone with a single ticket being taken to court and losing without identifying themselves as the driver or otherwise engaging with these companies? I’m aware of a few who had racked up thousands of pounds worth of fines but I haven’t heard of anyone who ignores a single ticket being taken to court. There must be thousands upon thousands of cases in Scotland where people have just binned the notification letters.
