Public Relations Student Blogs

All those in the Online PR module should leave your blog address here as a comment. I will then link to the RSS Feed of your blog with my RSS Reader. Instead of me checking your blog every day to see if you have posted a new entry, my reader will let me know when a new post has been written. There is a good video explanation of this is my earlier post, 'Explanation of RSS Feeds & RSS Readers'.

A Clamp Too Far - DkIT ???

Well I suppose the 'clamp too far' happened last week when seven co-workers' cars were clamped in the staff car park...but that's a whole other story. Was just leaving work today when I spotted the scene below in the carpark of DkIT. I'll leave others to discuss the pros and cons of clamping, but suffice to say I was baffled by the explanation I received from the clamper as to what 'law' the poor student had broken. "Have you got a licence?" he barked at me with a strong Northern accent. "Certainly do", says I. "Well then you'd know that its breaking the law cross a white line", he blasted. "Thanks for that golden nugget" says I. Oh he also muttered something about the dreaded 'health & safety'.

€65 and three hours after the girl first noticed the clamp, the ordeal was all over.
