thats in Windsor by the river, i parked there on Sunday £4.30 for 2 hrs


I've parked in there a few times, literally half the cars in the car park were clamped.

They wait till its one minute over your time and run over and clamp you.

You can tell they are amatures purely for leaving the car unattended with a clamp on. If it was a proper firm your car would of been towed within 20 mins.

Just rang them to offer them their clamps back, the guy reckons he's comin into my office with the police at 4, started asking for all my details. Told him I'd give them to the police when they get here.
Place your bets now, who reckons the police will show up?
