It's a right cunt for parking
In fact, car ownership in general is a pain if you live up there. Why students need to collect that many wing-mirrors continue to baffle.

i was a skanky student
so i was always on train/foot. but most cities are dreadful for parking these days - although i think oxford wins for being the shittiest place for parking in the uk.

When all students arrive
you can always spot the freshers parents, they're in tears, having angry arguments or just have absolutely set faces

and reeeally aggressive traffic wardens
and only 2 hours even in the free spaces. i am there for a few days at the end of the month, thank god one of my friends has got me some local residents' permits, otherwise i might have slaughtered a traffic warden.

I always get back to college
from the gym at about ten past eight, and the traffic wardens are already patrolling Broadstreet, and taking photos of all the cars.

You should go for it, traffic warden sex is hot.
"BUT I'M ONLY TWO MINUTES LATE ! I HAVE FIVE !" and "I'M INSIDE THE YELLOW LINES".... god, what I wouldn't give for a passionate night with a traffic warden.

To stop people parking wherever they want?

(PsychoChomp, Tue 14 Sep 2010, 15:02, Reply)

don't see the problem with them
it's the same as speeding, if you don't want to pay a fine, don't do it, or don't get caught.

yes
but when you have to move your car after an hour and there is literally nowhere else to park and the black and gold wearing bastards are literally prowling around your car after 58 minutes... they should die. an hour is no good for anything. what can you do in an hour?
