And post pictures of the cars wrongly parked in disabled or P&C bays?

Because it totally fecks me off.

Big regional shopping centre last week, new shiney Citroen Saxa pulls into disabled bay, no badge so presumed was either tightness of jeans or size of head that prevented owner parking in one of the other couple of hundred bays free.

Then

Popped into Tesco to grab DDs soya milk and as I'm packing car singled 60s guy pulls into P&C bay. I eyeballed him so he ignored me so I asked him whether maybe he could park in a bay not reserved for people with children. Apparently because there are loads of them (3 free at the time) and he was only going to be 2 minutes it was ok.

I told him that wasn't the point and am ashamed to say called him an arsehole! I took a picture of his car too and thought maybe every time anyone sees someone ring this selfish they could post the picture in Facebook hoping it would embarrass the person.

I'm premenstrual and fecked off after me and 2 of the DCs being ill all weekend but am just sick of people's selfishness.

Then to top it all the wench from down the road who ruined our nice quiet street for over a year whilst doing renovations is stood with her dog and 2of her cronies with their dogs next to the sign in the village green saying dogs are forbidden in the grass.

I just want some order in the world!!!!!!

I go to a gym which has an osteopath/massage/pain hyponotherapy clinic in it too, so lots of people with disabilities use it.

There is a reasonably sized car park, with a couple of disabled bays.

The gym manager has a constant fight on his hands as parents keep parking in it with their children, saying as he hasn't provided a parent and child space - they have the right to use it. He says no you don't, now please move. (There is a crèche at the gym).

I have severe mobility issues and cannot make my weekly appointment without those spaces. :/

Having a bad day then huh OP Grin

I also don't agree with "parent and child" parking bays, why? There's nothing wrong with you, you have children is all.

As for disabled bays, yes of course they should be there but these should also be within "reason". This has gotten out of control in my local Sansbury's there are at least 20 of them!!!! which is also damn extreme in my eyes.
