Kind of a witnessed suck, but more a spoken suck. On this evil and horrendous bright and happy Monday morning I plodded to the bus as normal (There is NO POINT in driving to my work. The traffic is horrendous – except for bus lanes where people pass easily laughing gleefully at the poor people in their cars – when you finally battle the way into the city you cannot find a parking space. Ever. It doesn’t matter if it is 3:00am on a Sunday, there are no parking spaces. I’m sure the council puts out rows of Masklin Model cars in all the car parks to convince people not to clog up the city centre with traffic (or for their own perverse amusement). There just cannot be this many cars in the city. If you do find a parking space (presumably after following a star for 3 days or finding the end of the rainbow or some other act of mystical and divine providence), after raising a small shrine in recognition and thanks for this miracle you then have to pawn your car to actually afford parking. Or divine providence turns to a malicious satanic trick as it turns out it’s a short stay car park and there’s a swooping traffic warden counting every second left on your ticket cackling gleefully like an end-time prophet as the time ticks down).


Wait, I'll cut this because I'm beginning to ramble.
