I've just been out for a smoke and there are 3 cars in disabled bays and none have a disabled badge. Time to take a photo and bung it on Twitter :)

Ok, it's chucking it down with rain but they're not disabled and the kids won't dissolve if they get wet so leave that space for someone who needs it :angry:

I really do feel that selfish swine like that need telling that they're in the wrong and right now I'm getting a hole burned in my neck by the person I dished it out to so I'm tempted to pop out and let their tyres down (thumbs)

This is what happens when I get bored at work and the rain puts my cigarette out as I walk over to get my dinner :)
Very funny and I totally agree with you. I wish I had the balls to do it. With my luck I'd say it to Ronnie Pickering and get pulped.
I've no idea how to add a signature.

The French have a nice sign at their disabled parking spots:

If you take my parking space would you take my disability ?

How about people parking in parent and child parking spaces with no children. With a newborn of 13 weeks this is annoying. If feel like saying their child seems rather small... so small you cant even see them.
I went to the Caribbean on holiday with my wife last year.

Jamaica?

No, she wanted to.

I've argued (really!) about this before with people who say that having young children shouldn't mean you get a wider parking slot but they wouldn't say that if a small child opened a car door a bit too hard and dented their car let alone if they had to retrieve a baby from a car when you've only got 18" of space if you're lucky.

I thought this thread was going to be about Lop Eared Bunnies :whistle:

Agree, spaces should be kept clear for intended purpose.

It was recently (a few years perhaps) made illegal to use on-street bays without a blue badge, but that won't help in a pub car park. Need to get some of those really sticky, horrible notices that they use to have in hospital car parks.
