Had a great drive to Como in my 4/4...visited Lecco to sort out some admin on daughter's upcoming wedding...parked Morgan in car park near the Bell Tower and I was approached bt a very big black guy who said he would "guard" my car for 10 euros !!!!...left sharpish and found somewhere else to park !!!
This used to happen when going to gigs in central Manchester or Liverpool..you felt you had to pay or your car would be damaged by the "guardians".
T'was regular in Nairobi downtown & they carried baseball bats. Also normal in S Africa where I am off to Sunday
