after seeing the carpark at the swap meet with a number of cars clamped and stickered for unpaid fines. it may be an idea to pay them before you go to a swap meet or a car show in future or go with a fine free friend

I cant understand how they were able to clamp cars on Private property,
as the car park is owned by a Farmer, Picking up some required parts at very reasonable prices, Buty you had the usual guys there trying to make a million with some unrealistic prices

wouldn't really call it a dog act, it does suck though, wonder how they would like if people turned up to some social thing they do like golf and ruin there day

but if people pay there fines as i do then there's nothing to worry about
the milk crates is a strange one though i've got a few and they're very handy, but i don't know how they came into my possesion certainly didn't take them from a milk company and even though i'de miss them they are quite welcome to come get them

Imagine the uproar if they targeted a footy match or a big horse race! Funny seems to only be car events that get this sort of attention....

Consider yourself lucky you dont ride a Harley - if you go on a run organised by one of the patch clubs you are photographed and forever after known as an "associate"
