Pregnancy

I know I'm not being unreasonable to take pregnant hormones out on young lads parking in P&T spot?

Okay, I know they're not a right, they're a privilege blah blah blah.....

but....

I'm pregnant, hormonal and angry... oh.. and I was hungry.

Two young lads came flying round the carpark and screeched into the spot next to me while I was putting dd into her car seat. They almost clipped my fat bum (it was sticking out quite far). They had lots of xbox games in there hands and were obviously going to the game shop next to the supermarket.

I said "Do you know this is a P&T spot?" very politely.

The one nearest me got back into the car, told him mate and they started laughing at me.

I got very angry and said something along the lines of ...

"Oh yes, your laughing now but you won't be when it's you with the young kids and one of them gets run over by some sad, lazy, little twat who's too unfit and lazy to walk 100 yards to the shops."

I must have looked like a big red angry bus

They just sat there and stopped laughing as I drove off. I don't even know if they moved the car. At least they didn't swear at me like the women I told off a few months ago outside Morrisons.

I just get so annoyed by peoples lack of respect.

MrsJoe - I'm doing the hand wave thingy and waving my bum like all the large guests on Oprah (I think I've watched too much daytime tv)

i did that once with a man who just pulled into the space i was going into, he had no kids with him and no car seats in the car as if he was collecting any. he just got out and walked towards asda. i rolled the window down and asked him to move as he was in a p & t space and i had ds3.5 with me and was waiting on that space (there were no others) he charged at me, i thought i was going to get dragged out of the car. he proceeded to spew out the most disgusting language ive ever heard. the gist of it being that he wasnt going to move. i havent been brave enough to challenge anyone again after that so fair play OP

clayre will they really do that? I'll remember that - it's really annoying and a pet peeve of mine but if there's a way of embarrassing them in public I'm all for that!

yeah they have done it in my local tesco loads of of times, i didnt take too kindly having to walk for miles to the store with a huge bump and a toddler, it must have been the hormones that made me do it cos i wouldnt do it now!

I'm not surprised, it must have been a long walk. Good for you I say, takes guts (or pg hormones!!) to stand up for yourself
