Parking

Why is it that 'normal' everyday people decide that when it suits them, they can park in the most ridiculous way, so that to a complete annoyance and danger to anyone that dares be in the facinity of their car. PRIME SUSPECTS..... Parents picking their kids up from school. Not all of them, mind you, but some of them cannot park a car to save their lives. There a few types of these drivers. Those that see the smallest of spaces then try to park whatever car their husband bought them by fiddling the company expenses, you know the type, small or old woman in massive car that she cannot honestly, hand on heart need but has it to rub in peoples faces that 'she is considerably richer that yow'( in the voice of Harry Enfields character). She then procedes to leave the back end of the car sticking out into the road. I swear I would love a huge truck to come along and whip the end of the car off. Yes there are proberly men that do this as well but in my experience, its mostly women. Another type of driver is that type that sees a massive gap large enough to berth a very large ocean liner in and manages to manouvure to a point where theres just not enough space for another car in front or back. Another type is the type that parks on corners making it hard and dangerous for everyone else to pull out of a junction or other drivers coming the other way. Finally theres the idiots that think yellow lines and those pretty zig zag markings outside the school gate are there for decoration or somewhere in their head the misunderstand them and think they atually say ' reserved for 'Mrs Jones' or whatever their name is.
Shopping center car parks is another pet hate of mine. Whey is it, no matter where I park, someone takes it upon themselves to park so close to my car that I have to squeeze in some ridiculoous mannor between the cars to get into my own car. On one occasion, I had to get in via the passenger door.
I cannot say the words I have for all these people apart from they are all inconsiderate tossers!!!
