I would imagine home delivery is a god send for those worried about car parking dings.

I leave the wife in the car and photo it- the photo is for the Crown Court appearance for "before and after" evidence, I tried leaving my Dads old false teeth on the dash but that didn't seem to work. Chris S.

That takes me back a bit. I once worked with someone who used to leave a plastic dog NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- on the driver's seat as an anti-theft device - he couldn't afford a proper dog lol.

From looking at that large tatty well used towing hitch on the back of the VW...
I reckon they would have parked like that with a trailer or even a caravan in tow, being a bank holiday weekend.

Perhaps he had one when he went into the shops. Imagine having a go about his parking, and his reply "Never mind about my parking, where's me bleedin caravan gone?"

Whats the problem with parking like that ? Is it in your way ? Is it preventing anyone else from parking ? There are at least 4 empty spaces availabe for normal parkers .
The driver would soon learn a lesson if the park were to fill up , and he'd be blocked in . , Maybe someone has sometime parked too close to him and prevented him from opening his doors .
So obvoiusly if there are limited number of spaces, its very stupid, but when theres many vacant spaces, no problem . Its like driving in the middle lane when there's no other traffic in sight . AH but thats another can of worms ! ( Rushes out to
