where do you park ??
« on: 18 December 2006, 19:41:31 »

a quick guide to see where you all park in a car park?

as near to the exit/destination as possible but having to squeeze into a space with lots of other cars,
or further away from exit/destination so not to be next to too many cars ie less car door denting??

me- i am an "end of row, furthest away from other cars parker, sick to death of the fat cow too busy on her mobile while swinging on her car door brigade! tone.

The only advantage to being crippled with arthritus is that I get to park in the much bigger disabled bays.
Mind you, it is the only advantage. :(

I park as far away from everyone else as I can, doesn't matter about the weather or having to walk a few extra yards.

Tell you what I've noticed....people who have, like, £40,000 mercs and beamers, dont seem to care! They park them all skew-wiff and in the tiniest gaps. Makes me cringe with fear.

its as though some peoples cars get lonely on their own, scares me when the grannie is revving at 6500 rpm while trying to reverse into a space.
i have even been asked by a total stranger to park their car for them!!

I do it for a laugh, I prefer to park clear of other cars any way, but i park in top carpark at ASDA in Sittingbourne where no one else parks and when i come park despite the rest of the car park being clear there is a few cars parked around mine. Must the collie dogs rounding them up into a herd. ;D
