We were parking today in a large car park in a touristy market town. Car park probably about 70% full. DH reversed into a space next to one other car, parked nicely within the lines and plenty of room to open the doors.
A man (probably early 70s) starts walking towards our car from the ticket machine, staring at our car, shaking his head and muttering under his breath. He then got into his car, still muttering, and moved his car to the next space along. Off I went to get the ticket. While at the machine there was a lady with, I assume, her grandson, in the buggy. Car man then came and joined them and said ‘I can’t believe there are no child spaces in this car park and then some numpty decided to park next to me….’
When I got back to the car DH said the man had looked at him and shouted ‘where’s wally? I’ve got kids to get into the car’. DH just remained silent.
Is it me or is it batshit to get angry about someone parking next to you in a public car park?
(We were meeting my parents so I made sure they parked between us and car man, petty maybe, but still…..)
