At 2.30pm we were parked outside the Ministry of Finance with hazard warnings flashing, I was sat in the vehicle and my colleague was just returning to the van after delivering water when a Land transport vehicle drew alongside (Neither were wearing seatbelts) and warned us that we should not be parked, the warden got out of the vehicle and started to write a ticket, I told her we were delivering water and causing no obstruction. She told me to Park in the Stadium car park in future, which I told her was not sensible as we had to deliver about 3 tons of water in town every day and to Park and walk with 3 tons of water would not be possible and that Land transport should have made concessions for delivery vehicles. She was not amused at my comment and handed me the ticket whilst phoning her colleague who had parked up the road by the
His partner soon joined him and issued us the ticket and I made a point that I would be making a formal complaint and then we went on our way yet again.

He slapped a MUST NOT BE DRIVEN STICKER ACROSS MY WINDSCREEN.
