For the 3rd year in a row, I've managed to not bring the right paperwork with me for my damn parking permit - apparently, my poll-tax form and car insurance documents are not enough! (I could buy a house with less!!!!!).....total waste of time DURRRRRRR.
Anybody ever managed to bring enough paper with them to get one on the first try?

Yup - I have, but only because I pre-empted the mentality of the NCP staff and brought absolutely every document I could think of into their office! I was a bit miffed when they declined to view all of them, but I insisted that they do so!!!

Leeches could provide the solution to your problem. A few leeches, strategically placed in the NCP office, may suck out any venom within their sick bodies.

If you bring your car log-book, poll-tax form, birth cert, inside leg measurement and a huge cheque then they give you a piece of paper to stick inside your car!.....
one woman in there is exactly like the "computer says no" woman on tellie
