ITG 🇮🇸 8 Mar 9:03pm, 8 Mar 2024 17,496 posts	0 ITG 🇮🇸 Bummer for speeding ticket, Linds. Unless you were haring it outside a primary school, in which case you deserved it (But I know you would never do such a thing.) My son got a parking ticket today of 130 quid for... wait for it... parking FACING THE WRONG DIRECTION! This is a totally made up thing in Iceland to rake in cash for the council. He got a generous discount for paying up straight away - so only 80 quid. LD, hope you feel better soon and can get back out there xx

Pothunter 8 Mar 10:49pm, 8 Mar 2024 8,651 posts	0 Pothunter In South Africa you have to park facing the right direction on a street. The logic being if you’re facing the wrong way you’ve had to drive on the wrong side of the road I guess.
KimCanRun 8 Mar 11:05pm, 8 Mar 2024 7,416 posts	0 KimCanRun Well done folks on various runs and activities today. Boo to speeding ticket and incredulous parking tickets. Been a loooong week. Could be done without a half marathon on Sunday! 😂 Not prepared at all. Home at 10pm tonight after working later than planned, a rescheduled Mother’s Day visit and then in past supermarket for provisions. So a late supper. Not even got suitcase down from the loft yet…

alpenrose 9 Mar 6:33am, 9 Mar 2024 62,724 posts	0 alpenrose Morning I think it's in the Highway Code about parking facing the right direction. My brother once got a ticket for parking facing the wrong way overnight once. That was in the days when police actually did these minor things, like upholding the law.
