saxon51 Â Â 10 #14 Posted September 1, 2006 Oh yeah, sorry . . . is it the christians who are so fond of halal meat then??? It's a van unloading meat in a dangerous place causing an obstruction to other road users, and in an attempt to identify the van it has been stated that it is unloading halal meat at a halal shop ... as opposed to any other delivery van that hasn't been identified as causing an obstruction. Â If it was unloading condoms at the chemist, and this was pointed out, would that then be construed as an attack on non-Catholics? Â Basically, the van is identified, and subsequently a comment or two were made about the state the meat must be in considering the place it is being unloaded. Â I personally don't give a hoot whether they are Asians, Inuits, Whites, or Venusians who park there. I just wish someone would tow ALL the offending cars away and crush them.

sufc_tom   10 #16 Posted September 1, 2006 The problem is something I have seen on many occassions from living down that area for 17 years.  Ticket Jockey comes round and plants tickets, all the area come out to remonstrate with the scumbags and before you know it, out comes the race card. Im guessing the ticketing scumbags have enough of a hard job as it is, and therefore appease those without respect or consideration who throw out this card because its not worth the complaint procedure process.

It's just a matter of keeping the area patrolled....most people who get a ticket argue they shouldn't but if a constant eye was kept on the place and more tickets were handed out and more fines dished out to repeat offenders it may well cut down on the idiots who park there.

Lestat   10 #19 Posted September 1, 2006 A majority of the time it does anger me when I see people and delivery cars parked there, but I always calm down when I think: 'Well, if he'd parked across the road, it'd take longer to deliver my pizza!'

dragonsoup   10 #20 Posted September 1, 2006 My mate was working on a roof in Crookes and saw a delivery of chicken to the resteraunt opposite, white transit, no cooling system, middle of summer, bangs on the door of said resteraunt- no one answers! the delivery guy left it on the back step of the former terrace house which is on the corner of a street. He threw it in to a skip nearby and was sad as he used to eat at that place. Dirty Ba.t.r.s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
alchresearch   215 #21 Posted September 1, 2006 It may be just a co-incidence, but there's a road going into Bolton - St Helens Road - that has exactly the same problem and nothing gets done about it. I wanted to mention it earlier but didn't want anyone flinging the race card at me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Dirty Ba.t.r.s Talking of dirty b*st*rds where meat is concerned - and not really related to this thread - I was at college some years back and during one of the biology lessons we disected some sheep's hearts. Â Where these hearts came from, and how long they had been out of the sheep without refrigeration is anybody's guess. Â At the end of the lesson, the lecturer told us that anyone who had a dog could take what was left of them home, but reminded us to cook them properly so that any bacteria they had gathered would be killed. Â I took one for our dog, and several others took them also. Â The next day I commented on how foul it stank when being boiled. Most others agreed with me, but one bloke, a new age traveller type, just said, "Yeah, but dint it taste beautiful." Â He meant it too, the dirty sod! :gag: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
