azekeilDon't want to be here, can't be arsed to work, don't want to be here, can't be arsed to work.
I had written a long and boring diatribe about my affairs with Oxfordshire County Council's Parking department but it's boring, so I deleted it. Here is the abridged version:
Did loads of admin-type things today which always puts me in a bad mood. Finally paid that parking fine - nearly a year ago - can you believe it![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
diffrentcolours? They rejected my appeal and also refused to allow me to pay the discounted rate because of misinformation. Bastards. Can't be arsed with them any more, so I gave them their 40 stinking pounds (of flesh). I hate being bullied. If I didn't have so much to lose and better things to do I'd fight them all the way.
I HATE the law and the way it's applied. The nanny state has gone too far with it's bloody legislation. I think there should be a law that bans over-legislation (don't you love the irony?), and someone you can just take a legal problem to and have them throw it out for being patently rediculous.
I'd love to see self-regulation and police doing police things face to face. If they catch you doing something stupid then it's a fair cop guv'nor. Otherwise leave us the hell alone. What's wrong with a polite note saying don't park here again, for example? If they find the person coming back, THEN do nasty things to them.
Okay, this turned out to be a slightly different diatribe but at least it's a bit more interesting, hopefully.
