MonkeyLover Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Today we went to Castleton and parked in the big car park. Was surprised to see that all the ticket machines had been stolen during the night - so we couldn't pay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeko Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Ahhh!! Castleton and Car Parks. Reminds me of the time I put my Car in CP below Peveril Castle many years ago and then walked up to look at it.Looking over ramparts far below I saw a Traffic Warden putting tickets on the Cars and realised I was going to get one as I had forgotten to get a ticket.So I watched helplessly as I was ticketed. Happy memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupcake86 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I live over that way.. they are getting more and more petty these days! Especially if you head over to Buxton where you can see them loitering around in packs ready to pounce :-) xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Of course you could always park properly in a parking pay and put sufficient money on your parking ticket and avoid all this hassle. Or is that too much to ask for some people? As for Castleton car park, I made a mistake entering my reg number. I wrote a note on the ticket and the wardens were absolutely fine with it and got on with the task of ticketing the morons who hadn't parked in bays and blocked people in or made the access roads very difficult to navigate.

How could you, if the machines were all stolen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did park properly in a bay, didnt put any money in the machines, because they weren't there!! As I said in the original post - THE MACHINES HAD BEEN STOLEN!!!!!! - how hard is that for you to understand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with an ounce of sense would have realised that my post didn't refer to anything you'd posted, but the usual whining about traffic wardens.

That is a different thread then and not about missing parking ticket machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
