And it's ALWAYS old people or business men.

I want to scratch all their cars and kick their tyres!

of course YABU to want to cause damage to someone elses car!!

And on that note I will settle down for another lovely P and C space 'debate'

StuntCubble · 26/09/2011 20:15

Yes you are a being unreasonable, p+t parking is a privelege not a right. Wanted to be the first to get that in Grin

hobnobsaremyfavourite · 26/09/2011 20:15

oh dear

TattyDevine · 26/09/2011 20:15

Meh. Hate me, as you will, but I parked in there the other day without mine. Usually its "done to me" when I have my kids but can't get a park, this time I "did it".

You either do it or its done to you.

Its not a necessity.

You're obviously a bit unhinged if you let an unnecessary marketing gimmic bother you so much.

AnitaDrink · 26/09/2011 20:16

Park at the back of the car park where there's often more space.

Andrewofgg · 26/09/2011 20:17

I said this earlier, didn't I? We get two parking threads this month, apparently, now wheel on the one about children with pierced ears and we'll have a full house!

yabu.

LEMONAIDE · 26/09/2011 20:18

I take it you havent been on MN long? This is one of those conversations that always kicks off big time.

I do understand that its annoying but prepare to be ripped to shreds by the MN wolves.

wantadvice · 26/09/2011 20:18

Ooooh tatty, did you not trip on the back to your car on teh babies who had melted having to be carried through what may have been a light drizzle?

stoatie · 26/09/2011 20:18

failed miserably with my popcorn smiley

OP this is something to be mildly irritated about at most. Yours is an epic over reaction.
Are you ok??

kat2504 · 26/09/2011 20:19

Not another parking thread? If you want to know the general opinion on this do a forum search. Pleaaaaaase don't lets have another ten page thread about car parks!

yabu
and boring

next......

naturalbaby · 26/09/2011 20:22

not another P&C parking space moan. it's not that hard to get kids from the car to the shop, and the world will not end if you have to park a bit further away.

wait till it's freezing/snowing/blowing a gale then maybe i'll have a moan about a lady with a 12yr old parking closer to the shop door than me with my 3 under 3's.

carabos · 26/09/2011 20:23

How do you know these people don't have kids and are "always old people or business men"? Could it be that you are a busybodywho lurks in the supermarket car park with a clipboard a concerned mum with a bit too much time on her hands?

stripedcat · 26/09/2011 20:25

YABU

Calm down it is only a parking space! Why on earth would you think this justifies damaging other peoples property?

AmazingBouncingFerret · 26/09/2011 20:25

Is it that time already? Of course YANBU OP. Although I think you are underreacting slightly, next time I suggest fantasizing about firebombing their cars and chopping their little fingers off.

bibbitybobbityhat · 26/09/2011 20:25

Op: this is a topic that has been debated many many times on Mumsnet over the years (approx once every two weeks for 10 years at a guess) so you may well get some jaded replies.

If you do find anyone wants to have a good old ruckus with you you will probably find they are newbs or strangely fixated on p&t parking.

No sorry but it is fucking annoying and rude for people with no kids to park in these spaces. What is wrong with common courtesy? Surely on MN we should all be supportive of the fact having children is hard work and anything that makes it a bit easier should be supported but no you all have to jump on the OP criticising her for finding something annoying.
Get over yourselves, and those of you who park there with no kids in the car shame on you.
