    Crap Parking!!!

    Don't you hate it when you have parked properly in a parking space and when you come out to your car some daft bugger has parked next to you leaving a tiny space to get into the car.

    Tonight i went to the pub with my mate. Parked spot on in the parking bay. SMACK BANG IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TWO LINES!!!!! When i came out after having 4 cokes, a Citreon Xantia had parked next to me... Leaving very little space for the passenger to gain entry to my car. I've never seen anyone park as bad as this.

    I decided i would leave a little note
    So i pulled out my wallet, and found an old boots receipt for mach3 razor blades... "LEARN TO PARK DAFT C**T" ok ok... a little abusive but the driver may get the message next time and square up, parking properly!

    we used to make little leaflets out of pink paper and photocopy them lots of times and give them to the mates. They would say:

    Thanks for parking so close! Next time leave a fooking can opener so i can get my car out....

    You want one of those pens that sales people use to write on car windows, the pink ones that say REDUCED or whatever.

    The problem is that I do this. Having recently passed my test. The reason is that in the test they say reverse into this space and park as close as you can to the side, if your not close enough you fail. After practising it so much I just do it automatically now, and when I come to get out I cant and have to drive out and park properly again...lol

    I always make sure there is enough room for me and passenger to get out. Therefore if there is enough for us, then there is enough for the cars next door to me to get in. Unless they are obease!

    I think a quantity of "Police Aware" stickers would be more suitable for the peeps in Milton Keynes!
    In the paper the other week was an article about how some woman was complaining because she was fined for parking across 2 bays. I mean come on, it's not rocket science, if you would have parked properly, you wouldnt have got fined!

    When I park in Tesco's or must other car parks, apart from pay & display ones. I deliberately take up 2 spaces by parking in the middle of the line. Would rather have someone call me a ****er than have dents in the side of my car where stupid mums in their 4X4's have smacked the door into my car.

    how abouts...

    if you pay for 2 parking tickets; can you take up two spaces in your car - avoid people opening thewir doors onto yours etc.



    Just a thought...

    My rule - simple

    Park next to the shiniest newest car you can - He'll take care when openiing his doors. DO NOT park next to people carriers - kids fling doors open with not a care in the world

    i also try and park on the end of car parks.... that way... only one side of ya car is under risk of car doors banging into it... I'll never park next to anyone with a childseat in the car either.

    Beleive it or not, thats perfectly fine! Show long as you're showing BOTH tickets, there's nothing they can do.

    hmm...I tempted one day to get loads of tickets and just put pointless stuff in them, or park really badly. See how many spaces I can fill up withthe least number of cars...lol
