Just now at work.
My manager came to me as I was handing over a new car and asked the people at my desk if it was their Mercedes over the road; it was. He told them that it was touching one of our cars.
The daughter relayed it back to her dad (his car), as his English wasn't great, he replied back to her with a hand gap motion that indicated he was "that far (foot or so) away".
As you can see, he wasn't a "foot or so away" there was no damage but FFS you have mirrors and also there were 4 empty, proper and obvious spaces just a bit further down:

As though there aren't enough parking problems on my street, we had this situation the other day.
The white Focus with the front sticking out is a neighbour (who normally parks OK)
The van is an unknown visitor. (non residents cause over 90% of the problems.)

Morrisons earlier, and he took my own favourite space on the right!! (when I use Morrisons) tt!!
He came back to his car as I parked in the first full space on the left, didn't reply when I complimented him on his 'parking', just got in and left.

“Oh no, was it really that bad that someone noticed?”
“What a mug!”

Probably just dumped it there whilst they headed off to William Hill to place a few bets.Happened the week before Christmas when i picked my mum up from an appointment. Ended up getting stuck in the parking / turning area in front of the shops as Mr Meathead todger in his blinged up RR dumped himself blocking the entrance / exit point whilst he shot into the bookies. His "faaaaark orrrrf, arl ownly be a cuppla minits" comment shouted at another driver was actually circa 10 minutes by the time he returned, laughed and pulled onto the road without looking, narrowly missing a guy on his motorbike

I know this sounds all "oohhhh aren't I a hard man" but a response like that could quite possibly drive me to violence. I truly don't understand how the hell they see that reaction as acceptable, it's beyond selfish ignorance.Happened the week before Christmas when i picked my mum up from an appointment.
