Electricians' fees: The Charge of the Light Brigade! . . . or . . .
A battle which took place between Islington Traffic Wardens
and militant motorists who had been deliberately blocking
the infamous Upper Street Clearway.
The Charge of the Ticket Brigade.
Half a league, Half a league,
Half a league onward.
Into the Clearway of death
Strode the Six Hundred.
"Forward the Ticket Brigade!
Charge for the cars," he said:
Into the Clearway of death
Strode the Six Hundred.
Forward the Ticket Brigade,
Was there a one dismayed?
Not though a Warden knew
Someone had blundered.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Just stick 'em on and die!
Into the Clearway of death
Strode the Six Hundred.
Cars to the right of them,
Cars to the left of them,
Cars right in front of them,
Honked, revved and thundered.
Sworn at with shout and yell,
Boldly they wrote and well,
Into the mouth of Hell
Strode the Six Hundred.
Flashed all their binders bare,
Drivers white with dispair,
Tickets flew through the air,
Charging an army, while
All the world wondered.
Plunged in the exhaust smoke,
Right through the line they broke,
Austin and Honda
Reel'd from the pen's swift stroke
Shattered and sundered. . .
Then they strode back but not,
Not the Six Hundred.
Cars to the right of them,
Cars to the left of them,
Cars right in front of them,
Honked, revved and thundered.
Stormed at with pen and book,
Stuck on and numbers took,
One chap copped a left hook!
Those that had writ so well,
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of Six Hundred.
When will their tickets fade,
Will they be ever paid?
C.T.O. wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Ticket Brigade,
Noble Six Hundred!
(C.T.O. was the organisation that processed the parking
tickets: Central Ticket Office. The whole thing is run by
local councils now - and not nearly so well!)
Looks like you're playing a game of morebells again!
Ascot: Race course on which a donkey who likes hot water sleeps.
What the Yugoslavian NSPCC used to deal with: Cruel Tito children!
