    Just looking for an opinion on this, Was on the dart today and took my dad’s yearly dart pass (may sound very naive but I did genially think I’d be allowed use it as he wasn’t taking the dart today) well I was stopped on the dart and got fined 100 euro, As a student and being absolutely broke was wondering do I stand any chance getting off if I try an appeal.

    Yes sounds very pathetic but that’s how desperate I am, I know the original person posting here was genuine but if I said I didn’t buy a ticket I would probably stand chance of pulling his story off

    You said it best yourself, man. Pay up the €100 and be thankful that your Dad still has his ticket as it could easily have been confiscated for what you did.

    Be very thankful you got a fine they could have taken the direct to court route

    Pay up or you will get a conviction in the courts

    Hi_92.

    As part of my ongoing attempt to construct a database of the "Knowledge Based Economy" could you advise of your particular branch of studies...?


    Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.

    Charles Mackay (1812-1889)
