They are just novelty items these days mate.

I had cheeky monkey on board but it was a gift I would never have bothered buying one myself

Cheeky monkey = brat

Little Princess = spoilt brat

Mum's taxi = doesn't even make sense as it's the kid's taxi so at least get it logically correct

Mommy's Angel = just a brag that they've taken their spoilt brat to the States and got the stupid sign.

My mate Jack has a sign in the back of his fiesta that says "making babies on board". Its in the style of the normal yellow sign but has a picture of a pair of feet with another pair in between them the other way up.

 

Stick man families. What they hell is that all on about?

Most people think mobility cars are free but they are not, my sister buys her own car but does get a small disability living allowance, its nowhere near enough to buy a suitable car but at least she isnt tied in to paying the top up on a similar mobility car.

Love this thread!

It started off about parking, and now we're complaining about all manner of things!

It is a really good banter thread.

 

Really good for taking out your rage on and writing about things that have annoyed you!

 

We should have it pinned and renamed 'the Rant thread'

The Vent your Spleen thread. My other hate is why taxis are allowed to use bus lanes, even if they're not carrying passengers. Why should they get to work quicker than me? Or they might not even be working. Just tooling along using the bus lane to get to the supermarket to park in a parent/child/disabled space. We don't know.

well keeping with the theme then, I'm going to have a moan about the two person car lanes around Leeds that never have any cars in them..............whats the point. 

 

A63, dual carriage way, 40 mph speed limit, empty inside lane every morning and the rest of us queuing in the outside lane, I would write to some one to complain if it wasn't for the fact that would make me one of those people who find the time to write letters like that.

 

But don't park in my parent and child space just because you have a car seat but somehow seem to have forgotten your child.

I wonder how many people do what Hugh grant did in that film and buy a child seat and squash crisps and stuff into it to fool people into thinking you have a toddler?

 

Love it.

 

I hate people who don't understand the concept of a filter lane. They come to the entrance of the filter and just stop and wait for the traffic to clear. Why not just drive down the filter lane and filter in with the traffic.

 

The name is a dead giveaway really!
