well as you waiting here goes .... how about you read my reply without thinking that every woman that has an "arsey, snappy" view and that it's her "time of the month" (oh, and no it isnt by the way )

I was mearly pointing out that i, like many others and i'm sure yourself at some point in life, will do whatever I deem necessary to keep my property in good condition

I did pmsl @ "mardy tart" - 1st time i've ever been called a tart so for that i thank you

i used to think it was cheeky (just as i implied in my post) - before i realised no one gives a toss about my property so why should I give a toss about what they think of my parking habits ... and i dont So yes your right I do now deem it ok to park in 2!

sorry i've had to read your post quoteing "I've parked in a car park before, and NOT had anyone dent my car" again and again and well done for wording it as you have done

oh, and i'm sure you will be coming back with a "arsey, snappy reponse" but i can assure you I wont be waiting for it, because basically I dont care whether you do or dont tbh!

Listen to that! That is the sound of an unsatisfied woman Can you HEAR the frustration?

As for the rest of your waffle....... no-one gives a toss about your property? Oh really? So EVERY single time you've parked in a car park, you've come back to find a dent? What are you - the unluckiest woman in the world?

Well considering we're never gonna agree (and I wouldn't on principle, even if you were right ), let's just agree that you should par across two spaces, and I'll agree that I can say "I told you so", when someone keys your car, or damages it in some way as a direct result.

Still, if it's the saff, then keying it should provide a nice edge to pull those stickers off, doing the general public and yourself a favour in the process

As for you Mike... window lickers? Saw plenty of them when I was in Norwich. Most of them were your relatives weren't they....... See that's what happens when cousins marry!

Mr Whippy - currently at home studying, and looking after my mentally disabled and very sick relative during the day (see, like how I played the guilt trip on you Davey ) which is actually more work than I could possibly have imagined!

I have previously put my van inches away from the drivers door of someone who has taken up 2 spaces, just so they have to struggle straddling seats, suppose that could make me as much of an arse as the 2 space hogger

Spoil sport! What's not t like about my sig? You're just being silly now!

Why have you got someone else's car in your sig then? Seems a bit strange You think I argue on EVERY post on this forum? I don't think so, although I do argue with a lot of people. Still, at least I'm opinionated, and not like a lot of goons on this site whose sole reply to a post is just a smilie or some other such shit.

I disagree, so I make my point. You disagree, so run off crying..... and there's no insults on people's taste - there is NO taste there

Okay, I win by default..... again!

oh dear - you men are obsessed with winning arent you!?

I dont make my opinion heard to win anything richard - but if you feel the necessity to "win competitions" then feel free!!!!

the reason I have a car thats not mine in my sig - i sold mine to get a house and havent got my new one home yet to do a new sig!

now i really am going because I want to go home, not running away crying, but if yuo want to live in that little world then go ahead!

Ah Trace - you sound all sad now. I thought you'd do better than that!

You'll have to forgive my competitive streak - that's just force of habit - doesn't mean I'm wrong though!

Come on - let's be friends again.......... as long as you don't tiger stripe your new car!

What a knobber!

You need to get a couple of big signs and put them up in your side windows after parking. Something along the lines of "LOOK TOSSER! CAN YOU SEE I'M PARKED HERE?? PLEASE TRY NOT TO OPEN YOUR DOORS INTO MY CAR!!"

Would love to see his face when he pulls up and reads them

If I'm in the 4i I'll use two spaces usually in a quiet pay carpark and I buy two tickets and display them clearly so people can see that.

I wouldn't compromise other peoples options to park though, especially at work, hence why I drive to work in a shonky Astra and cram in with the rest. I'd never take a car I really care about anywhere busy, it's asking for trouble.

I agree with RichPON - jsut because you were unlucky enough to park next to someone who perhaps inadvertently dented your car door doesnt mean you should be cowed into thinking that you have the right to be inconsiderate to everyone.

Faster Fords and MWF took a more sensible approach if you ask me.
People parking across 2 spaces are just asking to get their cars key'd by some of society. They sought to avoid any damage to their car and end up being the architects of their own disaster - Campbell would love it!

On a sensible note, I have no problem with peope taking up two spaces. I do sometimes do it myself. But then I do park RIGHT at the back of the carpark, where no one else does dude to the length of the walk to the shop. If it's a Saturday and the whole car park is rammed except for the gloriously desolate outskirts, what's the problem

You're entitled to your opinion mate, but read my post. It wasn't just the one dent once. It was a number of dents, down both doors and then a badly dented front wing, without so much as a note left.

Funny how people are quick to leave a note when it's them that are wronged though....

you can tell all the people who think its ok to park over 2 spaces have never been to fookin london

i don't care why you take up 2 spaces, if you do it ina busy area you are being SELFISH

the rest of us legally parking have to put up with the risks of inconsiderate "carpark ding women" so why the fuck shouldnt you?

imho if you park over 2 spaces in a busy carpark you deserve to get your car clamped

Quite simple really i think your telling fibs as no one in there right mind would do that

Also if you was to do that how many people who needed a space and couldnt find one except the half of the one you had taken up would think Oh thats ok he's paid for 2 tickets he's entitled to 2 spaces for one car

PS i would take up 2 spaces without hesitation but im far to sensible and just send the wife shopping on the bus

Well I'm not telling fibs. I'd rather pay for two tickets than get fined for not using one space.

And as mentioned I would never park the 4i in a car park that was busy and hence would never cause problems.

Read posts properly in future

att PON!
are you missing something from your life?the reason racey has another persons car in her sig is cos its mine,and as im her other half seems fine for her to do that to me. so as for you calling har a mardy tart? do you always sink to personal insults in an arguement?and before you say it no tracey doesnt need me to fight her battles for her she can hold her own.
as for the slating of my car,think what you like. alot of people like it and alot dont,i couldnt care less,i own it and its my choice.
as for having an opinion,im all for it but at least im diplomatic about it.if it aint for me i say that but i dont say something is shit to someone!
and no its not due to being afraid cos i aint!

He's here, don't worry!

NIL - first off, and it might sound like a cop out, take a joke FFS. Everyone on here knows I always banter and wind people up, and if you don't get that, then I really don't give a fuck.

Anyway, you call THAT personal insults? I thought I was being quite tame actually If you want proper personal insults, that's easy enough!

Anyway, seeing as this has just degenerated into an argument as opposed to what I thought was quite light hearted piss taking, suppose we must say goodbye.........Miserable bastards the pair of ya

As for the car, not to worry about that. Most people wont even see it parked across two spaces because of the "urban camouflage"!
