But 10p is 10p so have it back.

A bloke said this to me in a pay and display carpark after giving me the 10p back I gave him to get an all day ticket I could understand if it was £10 but not shrapnel, or am I just getting hung up on his comment

Are you some sort of budget, installment friendly rent boy?

Is it just me or does this make no sense at all.

We need some context to the story and perhaps better punctuation.

Or we can guess.

Silent went into a carpark and got given a used ticket.

Generously offered a whole shiny 10 pence for it and was rebuked with some aplomb.#

Who else wants a guess?

Silent lent a chap 10p to get an all day parking ticket. the bloke thought of himself as Alan Sugar, said thanks for lending me 10p but I dont really need it. he looked silent in the face "with regret your fired" and this comment annoyed Silent.

But I notice Caravanman also thinks a rent boy was involved. Where does this rent boy come from, the boot of alan's rolls royce maybe but thats more of a guess.

the title promised so much then delivered so little. and it has taken a lot of work to get to that little, which is still not confirmed.

Can we have a new rule that says if you are going to post mind numbingly boring minutae about your daily life, you have to flag the thread.

So no more:

Surely everyone in the world is a "bit" of a millionaire, excepting those people who actually are millionaires?

Sorry typed up hastily on my Iphone.

So i went to a car-park.
The bloke in front was paying for his parking ticket, he then to his astonishment was 10p short for the amount of time he desired his ticket to be valid for.
I being in a position of excess coinage gave him the 10p.
He glady accepted this proposition.
Then he came scurrying back across the car-park like some sort of gollum and proclaimed that he was a bit of an alan sugar, a bit of a millionaire but 10p is 10p so gave it back
