I can only presume the cars blocking the road are your typical selfish school run mums waiting for their little sts. Bet they won't move if beeped etc.
Or they are the cars from all those houses, but that wouldn't give us as much to moan about on here.

It’s a one way road, left side is parking, right side is school zigzag lines. A very narrow road that has zero room for selfish parking.

Anywhere that has vans usually is.
The van driver wasn't a resident..... well, he got out the van and rang the doorbell, so I'm assuming there to do some work.

you don't know ??

you will be voted out the nosey neighbour group, be prepared to sell your house and move down market, to a dwelling that is more suited to your observation 'skills'.

sorry but that's life !!

Don’t be disheartened PHU. It’s guaranteed that people won’t forget your name, and you still have all the other threads you have contribute to, for a repeat moan, if this one fails to deliver on any given day.

Completely empty community centre / library car park when he arrived. Mondeo driver makes up a space anyway.

Struggling to see what’s wrong with that Mondeo’s parking?

Yes it’s, not marked, but it looks like part of the car park, and they’re not blocking the dropped kerb.

Looking at the picture, there is a dry spot next to the Mondeo as if someone else had parked there whilst it rained.
This obviously not a spot, as you can see the dropping of the kerb so I assume this is for access / ie drive over.
It appears that the kerb is also dropping to the rear of the Mondeo in the same way, so I asume this is also not for parking but is also for access.
Its not ultra clear when you first look, and I'm making assumptions based on what I can see.

All in all, bad design to use the same material here as the parking, maybe the asphalt should go up to the drop kerbs.

Sorry, it isn’t clear. I’ll explain.
I took the picture from behind my parked car in one of two parent / child spaces.

Where the mondeo is parked, and it does look like another car had parked briefly next to the Mondeo (the dry patch, as you say), it’s a two car wide way to about 30% of the parking spaces.
The other 70% are off camera to the right.

I was second car to arrive (pic taken from behind my car), in one of two parent and child spaces. The first car was in the other p/c space. Then Mondeo man arrived. He started chatting to the owner of the other car and I assumed they were handing someone over and moving.

I went back out to my car 15 mins later - when I took the pic - and it was still there. The other cars in the pic had arrived in the meantime.

How so? To me it looks like the markings are on the wrong side for the skoda, or he had to reverse in?

I think Rob is a Nob, travelling all the way from Romania to Germany to flaunt his SuperCar in an ALDI parking garage.

The blue car is over the line, so if the silver one arrived after and needed extra space to get out, what they did makes sense. Or perhaps a wheelchair had to come out of the back.

Choose your preferred line - there are plenty, after all.

Lazy ignorant FB springs to mind, car park park pretty much empty, so I will park here in front of the ticket machine, no ticket either, mind you the charges are extortionate at 50p for a hour and eye watering quid for two hours yikes

Perhaps they're going to the shop furthest right. More likely the one next to it smile

Almost certainly correct.
