OV62 GZH Land Rover and parent child parking
Discussion
So sitting in the Parent and child parking in Sainsbury's, Banbury today feeding my daughter before going in. There is one space left in the P and C area. Mr asshole in big shiny black LR pulls in and gets out. No child. I open my door and inform hime that this is parent and child parking and that he has taken the last space. Guy simply says 'so?, I'm not answerable to you' I inform him that he is as I find it a right PITA getting my child seat out in the very small normal spaces and also inform him that he is an asshole. To which he replies that I am the asshole.
Never noticed this much before but had my first child 4 months ago and the amount of people I see using these spaces with no kids is starting to really boil my piss. Particularly the people who think it's ok to park there as they have child seats but no child. Surely they must find it annoying when there are none available.
What really annoyed me today though was this guy's attitude. Hopefully I'll see him again when I don't have my daughter with me and I'll let him know what a really bad attitude is all about. So if anyone knows him tell him he is a t
t from me please.
wker. I despair for my daughter growing up in this world.
End rant.

Good idea. You'll then find out he's some unhinged nutter with a knife in his car, and you become another statistic. That'll show him.t from me please.Personally I'd just think 'tt' to myself rather than commenting to the person about it and then posting a thread on a forum about it.
Otherwise I'd constantly be confronting people and posting threads on a forum about such minor irritations ass that don't hold doors open for other people or assholes in the supermarket who don't put the little divider thingy down on the belt after their shopping. KILL THEM, kill them all.
Or alternatively live and let live in the case of these minor annoyances. It's not as if people with children are disabled and unable to get around. The person in question is setting themselves up for some paint restoration in any case. The last place I'd park is next to people with kids who are more worried about keeping their offspring safe than bashing their trolley or door into my car.

You had a kid. So what? The world doesn't suddenly owe you a living.
No but it's bloody difficult to get a car seat out in a small space without risking putting a dent in someone's door. Thats why they have the big spaces to make it easier. Particularly when most people in supermarket car parks seem incapable of parking properly further compounding the problem. I wouldn't have minded so much had there been plenty of spaces left but that was the last one and when I went into the shop there were loads of normal spaces empty. Do you really want someone to be struggling to get their baby seat out using both hands and not paying attention to how close their door is to your P and J???? I don't.

Do you think P&C spaces should be abolished then?OriginUnknown said:

Disabled bays on the other hand ..... definitely agree with those.

Personally I do, then I'd redistribute the width across the rest of the car park and give every parking space a slightly wider space to stop the door bashing culture.
Thats a pretty good idea. Cars get bigger every year but the space don't.
Today annoyed me because the guy didn't even say I know, I'm just nipping in. Just a bad 'f
k you' attitude. Whilst I was finishing off feeding there was a car with children in come round and then have to head into the normal car park so no doubt someone will be coming back to a nice big ding in their door.The Vambo said:
OP is is spot on about not wanting to damage other cars, wish there were more like him.
However, the P&C spaces should be away right at the back of the car park. If you want extra space, you walk further not everyone else.
Maybe this is the solution, then lazy tHowever, the P&C spaces should be away right at the back of the car park. If you want extra space, you walk further not everyone else.
ts wouldn't steal them, I wouldn't mind an extra minute or 2 of walking.I think they should put them a little further from the door. Not out of pettyness - quite the opposite in fact. If they put P&C spaces at the back of the carpark, take all the space and time you need, as there will be loads, and people won't use them just to nip in.
It involves walking further across the car park of course, but you're just about to walk around a shop for 45mins, so 1min further won't be so bad. If it's raining not ideal, but they can be put along the centre isle of the car park for example, with the covered walk way to the main door.
