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 ;-)

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.


Also if you park further out you are less likely to have your car bashed

and
scratched by trolleys.


Have a small, crappy car.
Both problems solved.

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.

Assuming you'd parked there, would your car have had any visible
sign of your wife being pregnant?


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?
