    Are you actually going to remove the link or does "I couldn't gives a ratsarse" come into play here ?

    I'm just wondering if the op wants the blue badge for the trips to Costa Blanca - it must be such a hard job going to another country that allows the Blue badge scheme... must be trying to avoid the tourists that park up!

    I'm a blue badge holder and have been for 12 years, I would swop my blue badge for a pain free mobile life, one that I dont need crutches to keep me upright, being able just to pop to town without having to plan the route, arrange mobility scooters, have all my pain relief...

    it must be so nice to be perfect.

    I used to post on the Reading Forum but was banned for being too right wing, I upset too many lefties, and hunt sabs.

    I am surprised that you have not found a picture of my hice CM, it's on Zoopla.

    As for scrabble I am average, but play a decent game of bridge.

    Fight wing - is that your Freudian slip of the day?!

    "Right wing" would never have guessed that.

    TD we have a blue badge for my mother in law, she is 88 needs help walking, and doesn't know what day of the week it is but she's has a good sense of humour.
    But she loves sitting outside B&Q watching people coming and going.
    You can borrow her and the badge any time you like, you must be prepared for her to mess on your seats though!

    TD - a man of your means would surely not be waiting on the NHS to perform such surgery, using gas masks, scalpels and suture needles (hopefully all suitably autoclaved) previously deployed on riff raff. What's wrong with Nuffield/Spire?

    When you get over to Benidorm, don't forget to check out Mel and Madge's mobility scooter shop. I'm sure there'd be discount for extended hire.
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
