... in Cheltenham yesterday is reading this?

Yes, you! You! The fuckwitted knob that parked so close to my driver's door that I couldn't get in. 4 INCHES IS NOT ENOUGH ROOM YOU INCONSIDERATE WANKBADGER.

Yes, that was me. ANs yes, I really did measure the gap! I also walked round the ample room you had left for yourself to get out, that was about 2 feet. Your left hand wheels were in my parking sapce. If they still had wardens you would have got a fucking ticket you idiot!!!

I walked round that HUGHE space and left a note for you. Yes! I thanked you profusely for having parked like a twat. Yes I really did wish you would meet someone as inconsiderate as you, soon and often... and even today, after a lovely sleep and a breakfast out, I still feel the same!

Think about it a bit... would you like to have to climb inot the driver's seat of your car, over the passenger seat, over the handbrake etc, wearing a skirt, CCTV and other car park users watching? No? Nor did I!

But hey... you managed to get in and out of your car just fine. So that's OK, hey?

Pah!

Very annoying OP, you have my sympathies. Parking twats like that shouldn't be allowed to drive.

I pointed out that she could have probably made it out of the carpark if she didn't write a note for the other driver.

Yeah... quite likely... possibly!

But I was annoyed and, at the time, just wanted to let them know they had parked like a twat!

Telling someone their post was dull isn't tantamount to saying YABU Confused. If they said YABU that's fair enough. What was actually said was the equivalent of 'yawn, you're so dull, why did you even bother posting'.

To which the obvious answer is 'why did you bother commenting?'.

I had to do the same on Monday, lots of room, hardly any cars in the car park and yet they park so close to mine I couldn't get in (I tried a couple of times and then gave in and climbed over). It was very frustrating.

I am slightly chubby though possible understatement so just shrugged it off as 'thin person parking' and got on with my day

Someone did this to me when I was pregnant and about to pop. A normal amount of room to get in was starting to be a struggle, so this made it impossible. As I was stood there contemplating how in hell I was going to get my whale belly over to the drivers seat, the wanker parker arrived. I gave him the Hmm look, then looked at my belly and the car, he went red apologized and moved. Only happened once after that when I couldn't get the door open enough to get the sleeping baby in his seat back into the backseat, as I had been wedged in both sides.
God I hate bad parking.

And you didn't leave a delightfully passive aggressive note on their windscreen?
Or take a photo of their parking to upload to YPLAC?
I'm too pregnant to be pissing about with climbing over the inside of cars. And also self employed. If I'm leaving a space then I'm done with clients for the day. I would have had the luxury of waiting for their sorry arse to return and having a wonderful hormone filed rant at them as well as contacting the carpark owners... I would have had a BALL.

Would have passed me right off too OP

Blimey you seem to attracted a person looking for a scrap - lucky you

anyway YANBU it fair boils my piss as well - I remember coming back to my car in the hospital after a scan at 34 weeks - I couldn't even open the door more than 1" - I had to climb over from the passenger side, in tears, massively pregnant - I drove a Mini - it was fucking impossible

I was so cross - I feel your wrath x

Karma will make sure it happens to EVERYONE at some point in their lives just so they know how frustrating it is. Happened to me when I was heavily pregnant. Not funny at all. Just shows some people really shouldn't be on the roads if they can't even park considerately.

I did leave a beautifully penned note... which may well be why I had to pay for an extra hour, but I was on short time as it was... last tenant wanted to count spoons (and no, that isn't a euphemism!).

But I didn't take a picture. for wome odd reason. I spend my working life taking pictures and it just didn't occur to me Blush

Only parking spot I could find and a twat had parked with their wheels bang on the line, I parked dead central in my bay and the twat had left me a note ranting about my parking!

Oh dear. I am not very good at parking and think I sometimes do this inadvertently. I will be more careful in future.

Especially in Cheltenham.

Why not write a note? Why should we all go around life being affected by twattish behaviour and 'politely' ignoring it? But that said, they would have just screwed it up and shrugged their shoulders because people who park like that don't care about how it affects anyone else. The note wouldn't have registered with them. But that said, we should speak up when someone is a blatant arsehole.

I always look both sides and make sure I'm not blocking anyone in. Thought that was regular

Oh but the writing is note is therapeutic. I would have been super pissed as well. Inconsiderate cockwombles.

I feel for you

Some massive tosser has scratched the living shit out of my car this morning.

Parallel parked behind me and then presumably didn't have enough room to get back out so just scraped right down it.

It was parked right outside my fucking house. Did they bother to tell me or apologise or offer to pay for it? No course they didn't.

Fuck you person in white vehicle who can't drive, fuck you.

This happened to be when I was 7 months pregnant. I was ready to march into tesco to demand they call the idiot out.
Dh talked me down, whilst I climbed over from the passenger side

Ourblanche, it wasn't in the Lidl car park I guess? The spaces in there are tiny. Must be why it's so cheap. Ah probably not, it's pay and display. I miss the Beechwood car park. Sad

Just a thought, but...

can you be absolutely sure that the driver parked next to you was not forced to impede on your space due to twattery on his/her right (the perpetrator of which had departed before you returned to your vehicle)?

It's worrying easy to waste vitriol on the wrong offender in these situations.

"impede"? "intrude".

Some people are just bloody selfish, idiot parkers. I hate them too.

I once got boxed in our station car park. Both sides. By 2 'people carriers'. Fortunately one of the drivers appeared shortly after I got there. When I suggested he should park more considerately, he shrugged and drove off. I eventually got in the passenger side, opened the roof and crawled over. And yes, I left a note on the other car too.
