Tell me about it mate.....until now I count 2 dents, one on each side and a trolley dent at the boot. When I came out of ASDA and show the trolley parked on my scooby I almost cried.

I hate car parks, i saw someone the other day just swing there door open and it hit a smart car, when we walked back to the car we went pass the smart car and there was a nice dent there :S
Some people have no respect even when it comes to "rubbish" cars!!!!!

A bit selfish I know, but I always take up two parking spaces so that any "lesser vehicle" equipped with a "steering monkey" does not open their door directly onto mine. Worked ok so far, but a few angry exchanges !!

Question: Is it wrong to love your car more than your wife ?

Cheers,
Graeme.

Why is it if you park at the other end of the car park where its empty, when you come out from shopping, someone has still parked next to you.
What do they think your scoob's lonely on its own

I parked in the local asda and when i came out someone had hit my back bumper and it didnt have another car anywhere near it.

I was putting air in my tyre's the other night in my local BP and some old git drove straight into me hitting my legs, when i shouted at him he didnt have a clue why i was annoyed

The wife copied me in Asda the other week by taking up 2 parking spaces (she's only got an N reg passat, would'nt of bothered !). Came back after 1 hour (buying make-up or whatever it is they do in there !!) and had a ticket slapped on the windscreen. Asda are now fining people £30 for inconsiderate parking where I live.

A quick word with the Manager soon saw the fine recinded, but if it happens again we won't be so lucky.

Cheers,
Graeme.
