Apart from the questionable parking (I'm sure there's a good reason for why this is actually safe), I don't see it?

Diagonal white lines at the bottom of the photo don't look parallel, though it might be the perspective - or perhaps that the ends of the right and centre lines are squared off, while the left hand one is angled so it's parallel to the cross line.

My local level crossing is terrible in that regard, they pulled up all the individual blocks to do some track work and whoever put them back down couldn't get the pattern to line up again. I think they're waiting for them to wear out so they can re-paint as it'll probably be quicker.

Or maybe it just doesn't look right with that back wheel in the rail slot, and the front wheel almost in the other slot. Tenuous, even by my standards.

You're missing my point, making my teeth itch is part of the appeal of the photo and I'm sure that's why the OP used that location. This ain't the bad parking thread.

My point was that I can't see what makes your teeth itch in that photo.

Probably more to do with the seats not in line.
Yep this. Not in line at front or back.

Indeed, people are so desperate to have an 'ageless' plate on their car (3x3) that folks selling plates have racked up the price of the crappy 3x3 NI ones to almost as much as a GB one, whereas you still can't give the 3x4 NI plates away.

So, a mate has just got what is on the face of it a lovely looking new car port.



However now I've seen it, my ocd can't unsee it. I haven't got the heart to mention it either...

That would drive me mad, I'd have to get the installer back unless he did it himself.

That and the gap to the end at the rear looks different at each side.

Maybe this is a pic before those front to rear beams have been properly secured.... scratchchin

Spotted this in my building last night. It's making me angry even now.



Anyone got a label-maker I can borrow and a spare screw?
Why do people say communial?

I get it a lot - I work in the construction industry and you wouldn't believe the amount of mis-named communal areas on resi projects. Winds me up every time I hear it or see it written, I immediately assume that the person responsible is as thick as sh*t.
