"The vandalism was bad enough, but then they add insult to injury by forgetting the apostrophe in can't. It takes a certain type of person to do something like that - and it's probably the type that didn't pay too much attention in school.

"Or it could have been done by young children, who are still learning the basics."

Fabulous

I am not sure I would be advertising the fact that I had parked illegally tbh

I could not stop myself once and went roud all the (ladies) loos at my gym correcting all the typos and grammatical howlers on a poster on the back of the doors. I'd been staring at the them for months, seething, before something finally snapped. I figured I could blame hormones if cornered in possession of a marker pen(was 9 months pregnant at the time,so had been going to the loo A LOT!).

Drives me insane - like nails down a mental blackboard!

I heart Rachel Ward .

Wonder if she's a mum - can we bring her here and stroke her?!

Iklboo · 17/04/2008 13:54

Kind of in her defence the signs had only recently been up up and she didn't spot them.
Still no excuse for vandalism & tyre slashing though is it? Ot we'd have LOADS more applications to be traffic wardens

Oliveoil · 17/04/2008 13:54

oif - she can usually park there but a new sign had gone up

or so she said
