The BAD PARKING Thread [Vol 2]
Discussion
Re: Disabled parking spaces...
What a f
king genius. More time discussing his precious biscuits than talking about the blue badge parking scheme.
The radio presenter? A halfwit for missing the opportunity to tell Barry to STFU and get on with it. I wouldn't be able to resist telling Barry a few home truths.
Barry is a twunt. Because he (improperly) uses his wife's blue badge when shopping for her, despite her not being in the car.
Pat is thick as st, because she thinks that it's OK to shop for a blue badge holder and use the badge, despite the holder not being in the car. It's not. If all occupants of a vehicle are able bodied, or rather, if no occupants of the car are entitled to use a blue badge, then the driver commits an offence if he/she parks in a disabled only parking space. (I get that the rules are different in private car parks, though).
Both of them ought to have a care not to get caught misusing their/their partners badge on local authority car parks or the highway, as a hefty fine and a criminal record may be the result
Blue badge parking rules condensed? "If YOU are not entitled to the badge, and you are not with someone who is so entitled, you MUST NOT use the badge". No matter what the excuse.

I might fancy a pint though running to the shops is unlikely. Yes, PITA since you ask. Not as bad as this bloke - outrageous

Nice that you take it seriously , but a parrot for you I think 
Google Barry from Watford.
Righty-ho. I've booked a landing slot for the parrot, so it can refuel before the return flight. I'm blaming a sheltered life and an insistence on listening to decent radio stations Google Barry from Watford.So. Presenter is in on it? Must be to let Barry ramble on so much. Barry is an act, we've established that much. But what of the woman? Is she a patsy here? Or is she scripted in too?

When somebody pointed it out I went straight out and moved my car. No excuses, just slight mitigation....

don't know, just got sent it on FB, and enjoyed a lighthearted take on it. He's right about the orange ones though. 
I see a bright orange XV every day, it's really rather ugly. Nice to see a car in orange rather than grey though.
Quick bad parking story from yesterday, visiting somebody and a car parked directly across the road from another, cars could get past, but it was tight, a fire engine wouldn't have got through. Anyway, a police car with it's blue lights on didn't seem happy having to squeeze though, he made the siren do that noisy thing. I did laugh. I'm boring. No pictures as I couldn't be bothered taking pictures.

A result. Went to park down at Stonehaven today, where the spaces let you face the beach, the slot I fancied had another car about 8 inches over the line, and loads of space the other side.
The occupier was sat in the car reading the paper, so I asked her if she wouldn't moving over so I could reverse in, no problem and moved.
Makes a change.
