it's nowhere near as rubbish as parking anywhere under hammersmith and fulham council
i'm just off high st ken, and i fall into h&f by one road. this doubles my council tax and means that the parking is unutterably shite. instead of one permit for the whole borough, as you get with kensington & chelsea, it's split into tiny zones and god help you if you put one wheel in the neighbouring zone despite having had to pay h&f through the nose for the privilege of leaving your car on their shitty streets already.

also they must be the last borough in london to have shitty shitty coin meters and no ability to pay by text or mobile or even bank card. AND it's £3 an hour on my street... who has that in change? which of course is why they do it. grrr.

AND they keep closing my road for crap like filming or tree cutting and towing people away if they don't move their cars in the feeble 48 hours or so notice. why can't they do everything on the same day? why?

I have zones as well, getting pretty normal,
Luckily i also have offstreet parking!

Council tax is a bitch, I'm not far from the Wandsworth border where it is cheap as chips, instead I pay Richmond rates!

and yet k&c and westminster have some of the lowest annual rates in the country
i hate council tax. i hardly use any of the bloody services, and the one thing i did like, the local library, is getting the chop. get rid of some bloody councillors instead!

offstreet parking... jealous. i have been waiting for a space behind my flat for 4 years now.
