Pulling a fast one to avoid the C-charge
For those of you who live outside London (surely someone must live out there) and are bored stiff by stories about the congestion charge, here’s… another story about the congestion charge.
Free ads magazine Loot came up with some novel ideas to avoid paying it on the first day, including, as seen here, space hoppers and huskies. Staff even mocked up a chargebusting ad page, with everything from a Stealth bomber for sale at &£48m to astral projection lessons at &£24 a pop.
Not that the Diary cares. When you’re omnipresent, who needs a car?
