Pippa Middleton gets parking ticket

Note: being in the royal family has its perks. Carte blanche parking is apparently not one of them.

Pippa Middleton, the sister of the future queen Kate Middleton, parked her BMW Z4 convertible outside Scott's Restaurant in Mayfair, a tony London neighborhood. Scott's is a popular spot for paparazzi photo hounds who were more than happy to snap pics of a stylish Pippa as she plucked the citation off her windshield.

No word on whether or not Pippa will call up sister Kate and have the offending officers sent to the Tower of London. But, at the very least, she ought to pay that thing quickly before it doubles.
