to want to scratch the cars of ppl in parent / toddler bays with NO kids!!

[mummy22gorgeousboys]

And it's ALWAYS old people or business men.

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

I park in them all the time without children because I am too lazy to walk the extra 20 feet and it means that I can park lopsided because of the luxurious amount of space.

I then saunter through the car park laughing, yes laughing in the faces of harassed mothers trying to find a car parking space.

The thing that I don't get on all these threads, is all the 'melting baby' 'marketing gimmick' remarks.

They are extra wide so you can get small children in and out easier, so when Mr Single Bloke In A Flash Car parks there to avoid his mortgage on wheels getting a scratch, I will seethe as I struggle to get 3 under 5's out of the car without putting a massive dent in the car next to me.

Nothing to do with laziness, a sense of entitlement or melting babies.

Having children isn't hard work.

It's a piece of piss. Especially with a car. try doing your shopping on the bus.

Maybe you'd be better doing your grocery shopping online. You do seem to have some anger ishooos...

I'd rather tattoo my own eyeballs than park in a P & T spot but I can't get angry about it. But you do have to admire the bottomless pit of energy which this forum finds to waste on this topic, don't you?

It's an Indian summer this week, and I have some time off. I might park my car across 2 spaces, and then take a deckchair and set up camp in the third, reading my novellas and laughing at the poor stymied mummies.

Children shouldn't be allowed in supermarkets

well if the selfish old take the spaces that leaves you free totake a disabled space - I mean having children is - like - exactly the same as having a disability - it's so ruddy hard to walk with a small child - you NEEEEEEED to be by the door

seriously

SHOP ON LINE pours large vodka

Oh, I forgot (in the heat of my rant), OP - YABU for putting PPL

I must remember to ask my Mum how she managed with 3 under the age of 5 in the late sixties. I suspect her answer will be that she just bloody well got on with it and that was that.

Do stop being so damned precious about parking bays please!

Me and Riven know what's what.

We had children in the 90s when it was all different. Shitty buses, no priority seating, no parking spaces, no well designed buggies, nowt.

You youngsters don't know yer BORN.

I like to LIE accross a last space - with no kids AND NO CAR because I truely AM a revolutionary

God Almighty, gordyslovesheep, you must really enjoy the feel of a flamethrower . . .

gordy - see my post above please.

The P&T spaces at my local ASDA Waitrose are miles away from the door, it's not about that.

Daisy I park there sometimes without DS in the car. I have arthritis and when my knee is at its worse I NEED the extra door room to get in the car without being in agony. Im not ashamed and will carry on doing it when needed!

'children shouldn't be allowed in supermarkets'

Coralrose what IS it about then - because no one NEEDS P+C spaces!

I manage with my three quiet easily

YABU - you should of course park in the disabled bays if the P&T spaces are full.

Yeah, well, I had 13 kids under 6, no pushchair, and I had to walk to the supermarket.

But I still get annoyed with the rudeness of childless people nabbing a space.

CoralRose - what is it about then? Can only be entitlement in which case - pffffffft.

What are you, traffic lord?
