What weird out of that whole story is the Hovis biscuits. I thought they just did bread?The trouble with those car ports is some shoppers use them for thoughtlessly dumping their trolleys. So I cut my losses and avoid parking anywhere near car ports incase a trolley rolls off in the wind, gets knocked etc and bumps the car.
I do often take up 2 spaces if the car park is free enough. But I check the sign. If it says park only in marked bays then as it's plural it must be okay. If it says park only in a single marked bay I'll just park in the empty part further away
I was minding my own business working on the Zeds the other day when someone ran up the culdesac in a panic. His car had broken down and he was asking for a lift a mile away to pick his young daughter up by a deadline. Not really my sort of thing risking giving a complete stranger a lift but it was awkward to say no especially as it crosses my mind it could be an access to his kids issue if he got there late.
The nearest car to hand was my brother's Z3. So I told him to hop in. Stupid sh*t smashed the door straight into the breaker (which itself has decent doors)...
So you can't even risk parking too close on your own drive way!
Then he made things worse by promising me he wasn't casing the joint. I just took my chances and said that's just as well as I'll break any **ckers legs who turns me or my family over.
Anyway, all ended okay although bizarrely he left a half eaten pack of Hovis biscuits behind. Weirder and weirder.
Did they taste good
