We shouldnt have to, of course, but:

EVERY single time you go to a car park- supermarket/shopping centre etc, to complain EVERY single time to the security/help button on the ticket machine/supermarket etc .

You know what Im talking about.

Those bloodyselfish disablist C*s who park in disabled spaces. every time.

just this morning, went early to the superkarket. car park hardly used. very few cars there. a W* in a BMW pulls into the disabled bay next to mine, and JOGS into the coffee shop there . Still there when we came out of supermarket. no badge.

I go back to supermarkt (takes me ages with my mobility issues) to complain and the sucurity guy just shrugs. ''happens all the time. we issue tickets sometimes. nothing we can do. '' I said ''you have noticessaying disabled ONLY.

an elderly person heard our exchange and came up and joined in. he said he has a blue badge and hes fed up when he goes out and all the disabled bays are taken with only half of them with blue badges displayed and he cant get a space. he said he blocked someone in once and they , on coming back to their blocked car, didnt listen to him saying they were breaking the law doing that,(punched him through his open windowdamaged his car , and the police just didnt bother to take him seriously.

anyway.

pleaswe, if you have a blue badge, just complain, EVERY SINGLE TIME till hopefully they get the message.

its not about fines, half of them arent paid anyway, why cant their cars be towed away immediatley,? and pay a much huger fine.

bloody selfish and lazy.

on a slightly smaller note, the parentys/nannies/guardians who park in P&C spaces when their kids arent even in the car, their at school/nursery etc but just cos theyve got a car seat......

boils my piss almost more than enything else.

Disabled and elderly people are NOTHING to the ''powers that be''.

ASCs are more frequently associated with tic disorders than is expected by chance. As a frequent co-morbid it is usually given a separate diagnosis, whilst still being regarded by many as being part of the ASC spectrum. Many common co-morbids are given a separate diagnosis.

gin, that explains my OH's son's CAMHS assessment. Lots of 'ands' where it's all his ASD expressing.

I wish there was a better system where more people who need a blue badge can have one. And that there were enough designated spaces.

Our council's appeal system for blue badges does allow a 'human element' in the decision making, which is something, as the criteria are incredibly strict and rigid.

10 disabled spaces at local supermarket. plenty of ''normal'' spaces.

8 of those disabled bays with not one vehicle displaying a BB.

told the people in the supermarket. their reply? a shrug, they dont bloody care.

signs all over the parking saying these are fordisabled ONLY. fines if abused.

wjhne we got back to the car after food shop, another car opulled in and they got out, and i said all sweetly and innocent ''excuse me, youve forgotten to put your BB on display. '' one of them spat in my face! then told me to 'fuck off you bloody cunt, we park where we fucking like, you're a freak and shouldnt even be seen in public'' (paraphrasing, words to that effect). nothing I could do.

the other day, a woman in full burkha, face covered, opened door of car nexyt to me and just as she got in, I said, (i know, Im asking for trouble, but i have a voice and rights and why cant I speak up?) ''excuse me, you know this is a disabled bay? you dontseem to have a bB''.

she shouted ''rascist'' at me , laughed, and then drove off. FFS.

i tell almost anyone, black, white, tall, short, male,female... got nothing to do with thier race.
