Sat in a very packed car park with cars queuing to get in, waiting for the wife to trawl through the usual inane soft furnishings in Dunelm, Titchfield.

This disgusting sack of human squalor, looking like she was auditioning for the Aldi version of Love Island, bowled up and smashed her tank over two spaces that had just become free, got out and waddled off. She even looked at the spaces and went "that'll do".

Probably in a hurry to get to the MoT testing centre.

It's only 3 days overdue

You know the sign has Podpoint written on it? And they make chargers? And they put their signs on the fking charger?

Stop excusing people being dicks.

FWIW you've got to have the eyesight of a watchmaker to make out Podpoint on that photo and if you're like me not owning an EV, you've no reason to know what Podpoint is. My first thought was that was just a sign, most public charging points I've ever seen resemble petrol pumps in scale.

Some 7/22kW chargers are quite compact, often needing your own charge cable and are easily obscured behind the car.

Some idiots deliberately block them, even in largely empty parking areas. Tesla rapid chargers in Aviemore have been blocked regularly.

Just lazy. Got the hire van in though! Car park maybe half full, furthest from the door is no more than 50 feet. Older guy, would expect more consideration frankly.

I would have parked the hire van on one of the end bays, or any bay where you can overhang over any grassed areas.

Yes that's what I do. I had a 'newbie' assisting me driving at the time and has since been advised!

That kind of one deserves vandalism for various reasons.

Must think their ugly little crossover is much longer than it is, photo doesn't really show but it is sticking out a fair chunk. It was raining so got in my car before taking a photo.

I find a lot of folk don't understand how parking sensors work, stop as soon as they beep, and don't use their mirrors.

Obviously don't use their eyes either when they get out.
