... to expect people who use parent & baby car parking spaces to have children with them?

Or am I the only who gets fed up of waiting for a space because they are all filled with lazy b***ds who can't be bothered to walk an extra yard?

I think I may have to change mine to "Squonkeatscutepuppies" - I didn't even mean to offend the parkers-in-p&c spaces.

Thanks...I think (again)!!

Squonk re: eating puppies, I may have to start a new thread about that one

Twinklemegan · 06/02/2007 17:50

I couldn't understand why popcorn and hard hats would be required for such an innocent sounding thread. Now I see and I gather it's not the first time, but how does a thread about parent and child spaces turn into an argument about disability??

yellowrose · 06/02/2007 17:56

squonk - it's not your fault - ALL threads about one thing turn into a thread about something else - that is the beauty of MN

now - how many days old were those puppies you ate ? why not kittens ? i eat those in my spare time - lol

reminds me of blackadder and the
Baby-Eating Bishop of Bath

fryalot · 06/02/2007 17:59

not kittens because they tend to stick in my teeth, and I only eat the really really cute ones with the big brown eyes that look up at you and say "take me home, I'm a nice dog, woof". If you enjoyed this, watch out for my next thread, not going to tell you what it will be called but it will involve a blind man, an oap, a rabid, hunted fox and a guinea pig.

Ah - completely missed that one

LittleBoSheep · 06/02/2007 18:24

Oh well their website isn?t working properly?.shame I was reading and interesting thread from someone who had just amazed by a fight in their office!

Squonk - All the years of support hair gel has given us girls and the second you get a whiff of wax you are off?you should be ashamed of yourself?so fickle.

Ahh cats....the only nice cat is a squashed cat (if anyone gets annoyed with me about that I have to warn you I will PMSL)

LittleBoSheep · 06/02/2007 18:24

I meant "been amazed"

fryalot · 06/02/2007 18:41

I am ashamed, bo; very very ashamed and I am truly sorry for my flippant and misjudged remarks concerning hair products. Can I please be forgiven or do I have to join the bmc?

Bit harsh there Custardo. I'm also disabled and in a wheelchair with DD in a wheelchair These things are vital when it comes to do what normal people do without thinking, get into a shop.

LittleBoSheep · 06/02/2007 18:51

Squonk - forgiven and I am SURE this thread is not the last time you will say something on here that upsets someone - there are some very strong personalities on mumsnet and the impersonality of being online seems to make people more outspoken than perhaps they would be in the street.

Yesterday I got a virtual kicking on this thread and on another thread where I made a flippant (joking) remark about "career mums"

God I hope they are not this blunt in RL - how dull to be so stressed all the time LOL

Custy makes me laugh though - I seem to remember a comment about admiring peoples fugly children the other day (I chuckled about that for a while)

fryalot · 06/02/2007 18:53

Thank you bo. I've been on mn for a while (in various different guises) but have never managed to cause such offence before. I'm not generally an insensitive or nasty person anyway, I'll give the bmc a miss for now

Until last week I thought BMC was the British Medical Council...very confused as to why they were referred to on here!!

Ive had a few guises on here too.

[parks sideways on thread]

2shoes · 06/02/2007 19:01

bosheep. easy to forgive
but when people make thoughtless comments sometimes about disabled people it can really wind you up.to come back and say oh dear what did I do? is a bit rich.

LittleBoSheep · 06/02/2007 19:02

FIO it was Custy's "couldnt buy a melon" that set me off

fryalot · 06/02/2007 19:04

2shoes: I have apologised several times. I misread the tone of the thread. Would never dream of offending anybody here or in rl. Has nobody else EVER said anything thoughtlessly and then wished they hadn't? EVER? Really?

squonk lets kiss and make up I am too tired to argue.

fryalot · 06/02/2007 19:06

fine by me. [kiss emoticon] and I'm still sorry

LittleBoSheep · 06/02/2007 19:07

2 shoes dont think I DID either and again this thread was not started by squonk as well bodied v disabled...it mutated into it. Dont be so quick to take offence as none was meant (by me at least)
