Telling Porkies!

[Smowball]

Parked at our local parade of shops in their car park today as I had to deliver some customer orders locally. I always forget to get a ticket from the machine to put on my windscreen, but think I’ve only seen a traffic warden once in 12 years. Anyway I’d just finished and was walking back to the car when I see a blooming traffic warden photographing all the cars and putting parking fines on their windscreens! She was about 4 cars away from mine! And there was no way I was going to get to the machine in time. So I sprint up behind her, and, keeping a very innocent face I casually say excuse me, do you know where the machine is as I can’t find it? Even though it was clearly in sight about 100 metres away. She looked me up and down as I was holding a blooming shopping trolley lol. Then very reluctantly reluctantly she pointed it out and I casually strolled over to get one, keeping a very straight face.

So tell me your tales of telling porkies!

Do you spend your whole life in car parks? Were'nt you chattered up in one yesterday?

[Smowball]

Lol it’s the same carpark yes.

[pixie374]

You went back for more? ;-)

[Smowball]

No! Lol. It’s the nearest carpark to where a couple of my customers are and I can’t park outside their houses as it’s all yellow lines.

You didn't actually tell a lie though did you. You asked where the ticket machine was.

Deceitful rather than lying.

[Smowball]

That is very true lol!

We all know that after yesterday Smow is going to be spending lots of time in this car park..... just buy a season ticket, Smow..... ;-)

[Smowball]

Have no idea what you mean....;)

Smow - I know what you are doing. I saw your post attempting to warn others......


Scam on Women of a Certain Age…Watch out this weekend, ladies…

Be careful of this scam

This new scam is being pulled mainly on older women who are apparently passed the age of giving a running pursuit.

What happens is that when the intended victim stops for a red light, a completely nude and good looking, nicely tanned, unbelievably well enhanced young man comes up with muscles flexing, and body stretched to its full potential, he pretends to wash your windshield. While he is doing this, another person opens the back door of your car, taking anything you have in the car.

They are very good at this. They got me seven times Friday and five times Saturday — I couldn’t find them on Sunday.

With what is he washing the windshield?

[Barmaid]

I am not sure Smow noticed, Choux!

Good grief ladies - what age do you think I am???
Am off now to help a poor young man who is washing cars and is soaking wet, so I have a hot drink and a warm towel for him.....;)
