    Quite. One thing I wouldn't do is automatically let the first to reply
    have it. Come to think of it, I'd insist on email replies only, and
    then pick one the next day.

    Better surely, for interest to be initially registered in the thread
    concerned?

    At least that way people can see who has put their hand up and in which
    order.

    What about in the case of freebie SOBs?
    He doesn't, from what I can see.

    That doesn't mean he shouldn't have an opinion on the matter though.

    That's more like it.

    Not really. My initial vulture comment was but a mild quip. It was
    Lozzo's somewhat antagonistic reply, coupled with the fact that JB had
    already expressed an interest that I found mildly irritating. When
    Lozzo said he hadn't seen JB's post, & subsequently backed out, I gave
    a virtual 'applause' & that was that as far as I was concerned.

    That makes a lot of sense - as it doesn't automatically hand an
    advantage to those who have time on their hands to monitor the group for
    any freebies whilst the rest are out at work.

    I think Lozzo's doing people a favour tbh. Maybe in future he shouldn't
    bother with the "emailed" post.

    ....that'll be what happens I believe when someone, and I quote, 'hits a raw
    nerve'.

    Possibly.

    I still don't see how that aligns with your point 'Then offer more for it'.

    Is someone else less likely to do the person a favour if they too were to
    just turn up and take the offending vehicle away?
    Maybe - as I have mentioned elsewhere, the fairest way is if anyone
    interested expresses their interest in the thread concerned. That way
    everyone knows who 'got in first', so to speak.

    Anyway, it's down to the OP, or rather the murderer of the SV in question to
    decide what they want to do in terms of pecking order on this one, not us.

    It's a pointless debate.

    Yeah, I've no investment in the outcome of this.

    I got a parking ticket while I was getting my hair cut this morning. I
    was fucking seething!

    I haven't got any recent ones, so that'll involve effort, which means
    it might take some time.

    You're right. Did you hear about my parking ticket?

    I got one on the Fazer on the Saturday after Xmas day, in a shithouse
    seaside town near here.

    I'm rather glad I couldn't see any parking bods meandering around nearby
    when I found it... but hey, they're 'only doing their job', eh?

    Did you get it fixed after the tree fell on/through it?

    This was Sawbridgeworth which, to be honest, needs all the customers it
    can get at the moment.
    Am I right in thinking they're on some sort of performance related deal
    these days?
