Moody old cunt by me old dentist's
A few years ago I was working some weird shift pattern with work (6am until 4pm I believe), wasn't that bad for early finishes. Me mam had asked me one afternoon to pick up m,y younger sister from her dentist, which was right besides her school and on the way home from work for me. No probs says I, so I get there at about 4.30 ish but I have a small problem. Nowhere to park at all. This dentist was situated on a narrow and incredibly busy road, so I drive into a nearby elderly housing area about 20 yards up from the dentists and park in the corner, out of the way of the other cars there.

I call in the dentist's, meet up with my sister and we go back to the car. To find that someone has parked bumper to bumper behind my car blocking me in. 2 elderly people were there, looking on.
As we approach, one of them says "What's happened there then, someone blocked you in?"
"Yeah...." says I, eye'ing the old cunt suspiciously.
"Shouldn't have parked there then shouldn't you."
Politely I say "Sorry, I could only park here as my sister was stranded at the dentist's otherwise mate. I'm on my way now."
"Did you read the sign?" He points at some "Only residents can park here" message.
"Move the car please" I say in monotone.
After 15 minutes of this he moves his car and I promptly "say goodbye" in the appropriate manner.

So apparently I parked "inappropriately", while he blocked me in inappropriately to "give me a message".

I gave him one back the next morning. I turned up outside his house at 5am while on the way to work with a council sticker saying "PLEASE MOVE YOUR VEHICLE; PARKING HERE IS A VIOLATION" and super-glued it to his windscreen. Irritating old cunt that he was.

Grrr, parking.
One of the primary reasons I don't live in the UK anymore.

Wait
You left an entire country partly because of the parking!?

Camel parking...
Not really so easy - I can see why you moved away.

What?

When I worked at a supermarket
Some twat decided to park in a disabled space (when there was at least half the car park free) and when I went to confront him, he looked at his mate, laughed, and pretended to hobble into the shop.

I went to get one of the "Don't park here you able-bodied person" stickers and stuck it to his wet windscreen, right in his field of view.

It was a paper based sticker, so he spent the next 30 mins trying to scrape the sticky bits of soggy paper off his screen!
