Subject: RE: BS: Car parking in the UK - an observation
This thred brings to mind an episode of Monty Python's Personal Best that aired here (U S) last evening.   It was Terry Gilliam's hour and he did a brilliant cartoon (graphic) piece on 2 House Hunters--their job was to scout out dangerous houses--houses on the loose--then sneak up and put a condemned sticker on them They collaps and a bulldozer moves the rubble and they open up another PCN Car Park---the House Hunters are employed by PCN Car Park.

By the way if you think you have problems there---try going into lower Manhattan on any given day. Very strict parking rules---but not enforced on anyone with a special permit---they cannot be that special since every policeman, judge, etc; has one and parks wherever they damned well please in the courts neighborhood of lower Manhattan.   I think those are the same folks that tell the rest of us how wonderful public transit is---and we should do our part and take it.

My comment to them---after you Alphonse.
