Thank you MTC. I did buy lots, but one item was a cashback offer and I've sent the receipt to the cashback company for less than a fiver. (Fine is £35.) Doh!

I think this is the sort of attitude that spoils it for others. There are people that need to use those spaces who do actaully have children with them - or in the case of disabled people are or have disabled with them.

So how many dents have you had in your car before you starting parking in the parent and child spaces?

If people park well enough and are considerate then the car doors wont scrape the cars next to them

I can't see absoltely everyone parking properly. Some c*ckrunt opened his door into my new yaris the other day :mad:

I totally understand people wanting to park in the wider bays though personally I tend to park my motor in a less congested part of the car park so I don't get any dents/scrapes. I don't see why people are unable to walk that crippiling distance to the supermarket entrance only to wander around for ages instore :rolleyes:

Good luck - I imagine that you will be one of many people in the same circumstance.

p.s. Please don't think that I'm being a clever so and so, but when dealing with the manager, politeness, good manners & a "please can you help me" approach will work better than going for his throat ! I speak as a manager who has to use my discretion on a daily basis.

So a sawn off shotgun to his head won't do it then? :wall:

Worked for me over the years

I am wondering if people are getting too precious about their cars and lifes dings, all this talk of using two spaces etc is a bit much. If you wish to spend so much money on a car why not use online shopping then you can spend the time out polishing the car for the neighbour to admire :rolleyes:

ive you have just bought a nice new carthe last thing you want anyone to do to it is to make a dent with a car door or a trolley

Murphy_The_Cat...your welcome! Its nice to see youve changed your tone....looking at your last posts..it costs nothing to be polite & sincere...

Weggy

There's no way they can impose a fine for this..... For one, how would they know you weren't coming to pick the wife and kids up from doing the shopping?

On a different note, I once got a fine for Marks & Spencer - didnt 'pay and display' in their private car park. 10 years on and I've had no follow up from them..... big question is, all they had was my registration plate number..... legally, I doubt they have any rights to get my address from that via the police or DVLA.....

My tone tends to to reflect the people / subjects that I'm posting about / with.

Politeness is a good one, but some people who post on here deserve a lot more than others, & others deserve very little indeed.

Sincerity - always.

You might be interested in this cheerful, happy & altogether feelgood thread that I started the other day.

I feel that is sums up my sunny disposition and cheery outlook to life perfectly.

Enjoy
