Ticket- Paddy

Today was a Friday, the last weekday of the standard week. There is a tradition I partake of on Fridays, and that is Man-Free. It is a free period I spend with 3 of my other male friends, in which we do manly activities, usually involving food. Today we opted to have KFC, the manliest of the big fast food franchises. I drove us there, and pulled up in a loading bay as there were no parking spaces available. As we stepped out of the car a man warned me that people often receive parking tickets. I thanked him for his information and entered KFC. I placed my order and then decided to return to my car to prevent it being ticketed. I rounded the corner to where I had parked my vehicle and lo and behold there was a Traffic Warden. I sprinted to my car, with one of my companions in hot pursuit, and unlocked it. However, the warden (being a massive ******) had already pushed the print button on his machine and had to therefore give me my ticket anyway. I was somewhat outraged, having left my car for no longer than 2 minutes. TWO! I didn't even obstruct anyone from loading during that time. However, there was a plus to all this, we got given a free bottle of Pepsi by the KFC staff accidentally.
