Just joined in order to share this. Lights are on, no one inside. Enjoy....

why have you blanked out the plate? If they park like a cock, embarass them! just make sure your user name is suitably anonymous!

Car park was empty. A gym and you can't be 4rsed to walk....

That's blocked?
I suppose driving out and turning left might require more than one turn of the wheel but it's not that bad.

Its bad because there's no reason to park right next to the entrance. Coming out of there would block your vision too. st for brains parking.

Nah. Should've reversed in.

I just knew SOMEONE would say it!

I just fitted my OEM rear lip and wanted to see it as I walked back to my car - sad but true

Ha! Class. You're forgiven.

I turned up whilst she was trying to park, min and a half later she just got out and left it

Isn't it wonderful that people prioritise spending money on a prestigious convertible and a vanity plate over some advanced driving lessons?

Basic driving lessons would be an improvement.....

One of those toddler toys where you fit shaped objects into corresponding slots would probably help her parking by the looks of it.

Worryingly it is not un-common.
A friend of the GF passed her test when she was about 25. The day after she came to our house and explained that she couldn't understand parking. The part confusing her was which way to turn the wheel when reversing.
It took me a while to actually get my head around the simplicity of the problem and I resorted to firing up Gran Turismo on the PS to do some demonstrations of reversing.
The GF then took her to an empty car park for some real life demo. It was thought that my patience had already reached its limit for that part.

Just now (about 12 50ish) in Sainsburys in Sixfields, Northampton, blue Audi TT, parked over 2 bays, one of which I could have used.

I was going to get a picture but as soon as I turned my camera on, it promptly ran out of battery.

People like this always amaze me. They seem to think that because they've got hazard lights flashing, it's means they park anywhere regardless of signage or road markings!

You can can't you? That's what the flashing lights are for

I thought someone might make a comment about how dirty it was. Was spotless on Saturday afternoon and bloody filthy now

Although I have the same problem, ours were spotless at the weekend.

If you see them now though, the van has about 500-600 miles of dirt/mud/other crap on it now.

.. even including the roof.

A good one from tonight.

Loads of empty spaces, but he chooses to park in a disabled bay, and can't even do that right.
