    same here pwales,have been watching this thread,i did contribute in the beginning but its just going round and round in circles.ridiculous.i have always filled my own forms in,immediately got upper rate dla both componenets no problem as my consultant backed me up,therer will be so many people with badges there wont be anywere to park anyway.at least when i get new meds for my rheumatoid arthritis will be bit more mobile.and i wouldnt dream of parking in a bay so somebody worse than me could use it.

    the winner:j:j:j:j.lol. am just taking the mick hun,the same debate has been going for a month,round and round and round.........groundhog day.the difficulty some people have getting badges proves maybe they arent entitled.thats just my opinion.its just people on here with MOBILITY issues due to physical probs seem to have no problem.
