OT : Clamped drivers revenge :-))

O my goodness. The poor guy. "he parked in the wrong area because the parking bays for regular cars and caravans were all full and there were plenty of spaces in the lorry park."

Seems reasonable to me.

"...and it's the PRIVILEGE of pedants to correct poor spelling."

Ah you spotted my obvious mistake to see if you were concentrating :-))

And the PROVENANCE of the pedant will ensure it.

BBC: "A caravaner who was clamped at an M5 service station has said he does not regret taking his revenge - by clamping the clamper."

CARAVANNER. They're all at it.

Apparently in France people are going round supergluing the wheel clamps. The clamping company then can't get them off.

Not much good to the clamped car then. Did you read that in the Sun ?

No heard it on the radio - the BBC so it must be true :)

Hopefully you can then sue the clamping company for something.

The BBC ! Must be Kosher then. ))

I would guess squirt the superglue into the lock itself, then they would have to wreck the clamp/lock to get it off hopefully without damaging the car. Major inconvenience and expense for the clamping company, sounds good to me.

On or around Fri, 3 Aug 2007 23:24:28 +0100, hugh enlightened us thusly:

I assume what happens is that you then call the clamping company, all innocent-like and pay the fees, then when they can't get it off you say "well, Your clamp, your problem - I've paid the release fee and either you cut it off or I'll sue you" OWTTE.

could be a sticky wicket to bat on though.

I think you need sex, i really do.
