I saw the (very) old lady finish parking this, in our local doctors' surgery (where else?).
As seems to be the norm, she paused to check how well she'd parked and then continued to the building.

At least she checked it.

I suggest that she wanted to get the white line down the centre of the vehicle. (slightly askew.)

Stood behind them in the shop queue today while they deliberated over which scratch cards to buy, maybe when they win, they can get a number plate that spells pleb correctly...

No blue badge, just a sprog and two parents, which counts in lieu of the badge I guess?

I managed to park in a normal bay and without the wife got my toddler across the car park without anybody dying but better use the disabled space next time, just in case.

Usual crap abandonment in Duthie Park Aberdeen, this is the start of the domino effect. Abandon car and think "I wonder what that white line is under my front wheels, oh well"



Mind you, the car in front could reversed a bit to keep his front in his space, but they don't.

And the usual run of the mill, drive in, that will do. Supermarket car park gets busy.

We had a bit of a problem parking on the below corner and over hanging our driveway so as we needed our driveway relaying took the opportunity to have the entrance widened with the dropped kerb being extended (we did get planning permission in case anyone asks).

This is today

Is that in Reading? There used to be an identical Pluriel, 03-reg, same colour, always parked like that near the university about 10 years ago.

Afraid not, this is parked in Manor Royal, near to Gatwick Airport.

I dint have a problem with that.

The long doors on that would make it virtually impossible to get out in a normal space, especially if you weigh more than 7 stone.

If that's the case don't take it to a busy supermarket.

On reflection it is quite a difficult concept to grasp.

Nothing major, just my sense of humour.

Watched the Merc slowly reverse in the space, a thought crossed my mind, "Doh...what's that funny bleeping noise when I reverse, oh well better check it into the dealers".

Can't be that busy, there's an empty space next to him.

I don't have a problem with that either. Beautiful car that if parked conventionally some hideous cow in an SUV with ugly sprogs will only dent when she rams the door of her stbox against said car with her immensely lardy rear end when extracting her 'pride and joy' from her Chelsea tractor.

Fair play to the owner and stop being so jealous of them!

So some people are allowed to park badly because of the type of car that they drive?

[SlimJim16v]

There are ways to park defensively without being a . Or just take the shed.

The guy is a dick (I follow what he does on another thread here) and so is his parking.
