A man pulled up in our overcrowded parking street near the train station. And parked smack in the middle of two spaces. I asked him (very kindly) if he could pull forward or backward so that another car might be able to park...and...he said "No, I have to get to the train". With the overcrowded and controversial parking on streets near the station, could people please think of others when they park?


Fuming.

The Council's calculation of 507 residents' parking spaces within the proposed CPZ with no individually marked parking spaces is predicated on considerate parking and each car "occupying" no more than 5.5 metres.


In the real world there will be less than 507 available spaces.

That sort of selfish behaviour really gets my goat! All it takes is a little bit of consideration for others...sigh...


Bet he was a parent with a sense of entitlement! ;-)


ETA: the last statement was a joke, really just a joke (see the winking, smiley face), it may not be very funny but please don't start a debate over it!

What sort of lazy @#$%& drives to the bloody train station anyway


One who lives a number of miles away and wants to use a cheaper zone, one who has just delivered their handicapped relative/ neighbour somewhere and has to get to work, one who has to rush off somewhere this evening and doesn't have the time to get home and pick up their car, one who is going to pick up a very heavy package in town and will need the car to get it home...


Doesn't excuse selfish parking, of course.

Surely that will cost more in petrol?

That seems very unlikely from such a selfish twat, and where is their blue badge?


Anyway, couldn't the OP just accidently fall over near the car, and put their hands out to break their fall, whilst holding their keys...

    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
