M6 toll, good news

Park there if you want lots of space. Also if you park further out you are less likely to have your car bashed and scratched by trolleys. |

like they were saying : I've never known a supermarket car park where the areas further out (although not much further out) from the shop aren't almost completely empty. Park there if you want lots of space. I had to stop in at Tescos a while back, driving a LWB Sprinter with a car trailer on the back. WAY down at the far end, I finally found sufficient spaces to tuck the bloody thing in, roughly straight (well, taking up three spaces and quarter of an aisle). I came out, to find cars parked in ALL the spaces next to me! Aaaagh! Oh, and many empty spaces all around. Yes, I did get it out without touching anything. Just |

OAPs often get concessions, do they take up less room? I believe we get shorter as we get older, so the answer is probably yes. |

No problem then. I just got the impression from your post that it was giving you alot of grief and you would be entitled. But seeing as you're pretty much OK then there's no point. nah, it's fine now. But when it happened, my god. agony. Just about the only time it was OK was ironically driving, because my legs are stretched out in front. Work was tolerable, as I sit all day, but walking, or even just standing was absolute agony. You'll probably still be up for a free dedicated parking space outside your front door though ;-) |

In article ,
says... Try Tesco in Gateshead. If it is any approaching peak hours.. forget it. You will not find a space. Asda Cockhedge Warrington, on a Sunday. the only day that the car park is completley free, instead of getting your ticket stamped at Asda (no other shops on the park can stamp it). Can't get a space on there after 11.30, until about 3.30. You see legions of lost souls driving round waiting for someone to move. -- The poster formerly known as Skodapilot. http://www.bouncing-czechs.com |

It actually would (in this instance) because we've put the baby seat in the back, because there's no convenient place to store it in the house. If we'd been in my car, the seat wouldn't have been in the back. Intriguing... How does the presence (or absence) of a baby seat in a car indicate a pregnant driver or passenger? Anticipation? |
