Is there anything more divine, than to rightly challenge a parking fine?
The immediate injustice of such a request, £80 at the council’s behest?!
Upon reading the note, I scoff and quote “The Penman is a fat oaf, I will NOT pay”
For there are so many instances in life, when you face unavoidable strife.
A sudden bill, an emergency payment, breathing decay onto my bank statement
But for once I am in the right, and the council will face my mighty might!
This parking fine is for those unlike me, I have a parking permit see
Specifically for situations thus, I’ll park where I like (In a certain radius)
Safe in the knowledge that I have played by the council’s rules
The challenge is made, the parking fine unpaid. And I sit and wait with glee
A response arrives, “we are prepared in this instance to cancel the notice”
And I notice in this instance that it was my turn to succeed.
And then I think back and shudder, was this worth the bother?
To phone and wait on hold for close to an eternity?
Of course you bastards, I’d wait regardless to avoid paying any unjust fee
