To think this must the the work of a MNer?

Seen on an Audi (child car seat free) parked in a Tesco P&C space...

Thought y'all would appreciate it

Wow that's one aggressive note - whoever wrote that was a total cock, regardless of the rights or wrongs of the parking

Hopefully not a MNetter. I'd hope we were slightly cleverer and less twattish than that note suggests.

"""Excellent. Mwah hahahaha.""

Not if the recipient is disabled and perfectly entitled to park there. Morally, that is, as everyone is entitled to park there.

It could just be another reminder of how hated and not wanted disabled people have become in today's UK society.

'You wait - if the day ever comes that you have children and some selfish cock who cares more about his car takes the last parent and child space...'

There are loads of places that don't even have p&c spaces, what does the author of that note think parents do? Give up and go home, or what?

What did the make of car have to do with it? Are Audi drivers not allowed to have children?
My money's on the newborn in the carseat that was carried into the shop.
The writer of that note sounds like she has waaaay too much time on her hands. Perhaps a hobby would be in order.

When my baby was in a car seat I took the whole car seat into the store with me as they attach to the trolley. Isn't that pretty common?

I wonder if people thought I was a childless person taking advantage..

I've used parent and child parking: I was hobbling slowly and painfully on two sticks for months, but not eligible for a blue badge. I barely made it out of the house at all, but sometimes you go stir crazy. That note would have really upset and frustrated me.

Can't believe how irate people get over parent and child spaces. When we were little we didn't have a car so my mum had to cart the four of us on the bus to the supermarket...baby, toddler and two others under five at one point. It's really not that much of an issue to park in an ordinary space is it?

God I feel embarrassed for whoever wrote that.

I wouldn't worry if I received such a note, it was written by somebody who needed no P&C place anyway. The writer clearly had A) enough time to write B) hands free to write and C) time and effort to spare to go find a pen and paper.

I also took the infant carrier out of the car on occasion. I would have been really upset to come back to a note like that.

Oh, just as a matter of interest, what's the relevance of th make of vehicle?

And the prick that wrote it was sooooooo brace that they didn't put their name on the note. Cowardly twat

*brave

Thanks ITMama1

I think the note writer has seen the Audi driver park up and exit the car without a child in tow. The handwriting inspires this confidence.

The Audi - it was my brother who saw this and he never refers to a car as just a car (always "an Audi", "a Ford Mondeo", etc).

I just liked the way it sounded.

I couldn't see the pic until someone reposted.

Don't some baby seats come out so you can fit them in supermarket trollies .
So the driver may have a baby sleeping in a car seat, put it in a trolly, get back and find this note and get very upset.

How cruel. I have to say with baby twins I really appreciated the parent and child spaces (one car seat on either side of the car, almost impossible to get out by leaning through the car- not isofix - and they slotted into the enormous unwieldily buggy that took up the entire boot), but never would I have thought to write something like that.

I suspect the note maker has seen the Audi owner get out of the car child free. Otherwise they'd have left notes on all cars that looked childfree.

May I just ask how you Mums would ever have coped without designated parking spaces, trollies for babies, low level bus entry, space for huge buggies etc?

You do know and if not, I hope you will appreciate that your Mother battled her way on to buses mostly with a lift up from others, carrying many bags of shopping.
She was either trying to control an unwieldy pram or a flimsy buggy. The buggies when you were kids looked like they'd blow over in a breeze.

Maybe there's a place for some social history to be taught here as you don't seem to get how your mum struggled and how cushy you have it now.
I hope you don't go whinging to mum, "I couldn't find a child space."?
Sure she'll turn away and roll her eyes.

My Mother struggled even more, as she couldn't afford bus fares just after the war. We walked everywhere, and I mean for miles as did most others and that's why everyone was slim and fit.

The moaning of who parked near my child space is madness.
Park at the empty top end, put your child in a trolley and have fun twisting and singing to them on the way.
Or is that too much trouble?

I would think given the content of the note..the writer saw that the occupant did not have a child.

Of course the occupant could have had hidden disabilities also.

Conclusion...writer is a bit of a cock themselves.

Funnily enough hee, I am entirely old enough to remember buses that you couldn't get pushchairs on unless you took the baby out, held it with one arm, held onto your toddler with the other hand, folded the pushchair with your other hand and carried your shopping with your other hand. It was a fucking nightmare, and mostly I stayed home, or relied on my DH to drive me or took taxis, because I was lucky enough for that to be an option. Specifically because I do remember that, I do not feel the need to wish away modern progress from today's young modern mothers.

Similarly having struggled through the seventies with no central heating, I still manage to be completely sympathetic to any modern woman whose boiler breaks.

Still think that note was a bit arsey though.
