    So i got a fine from the traffic warden for not having current tax last week, trouble is the traffic warden has no tax either, heck he dosen't even have a current NCT...

    I thought he was my friend, but no:(

    If I told the Garda on him would they be obliged to set up a check point and show him what retrubution and justice is all about?:confused:

    Traffic wardens have no friends.

    Whats good for the gander should be good for the goose. You cant ticket him to report him to his colleagues, failing that the Gardai.

    no friends and he has no colleagues either and even the Gardai are not his friends, do you reckon Garda would cut me on for a few quid out of the €1500 fine for not having an NCT ?

    And it's sauce. Sauce for the Goose...

    Forget the Gardai, the red tops (shudder) love this stuff. It doesn't even have to be true.

    Tabloid newspapers - SUN, daily whatever, with a red top on the front page, generally known as a Red top. Crap newspapers really.
