The Joy of Parking ...

Now and then I hear these random chain rattling noises outside my flat. This time I actually got up from my comfy couch and checked it out.

Turns out a parking permit is a pretty valuable commodity in the complex. If you do not have one, you get your tires chained to a triangular plate.

After a couple hours, the chain rattling started again.  I knew it must be the owner of the 1 Series (118i) coming to get his car back.

Apparently it costs around $200 CAD to get the triangular plate off. And I thought parking tickets at 797 Don Mills were bad.

Just in case, chose to use this blurred pic for privacy issues, lol.
