Rude parking-row man was wrong
Rude parking-row man was wrong
I WOULD like to take issue with the gentleman who was extremely rude to me and my friend outside the Cafe Columbus on Saturday afternoon. There are several points to make.
First, it is not illegal to stop on double yellow lines to pick up a passenger, particularly when the car has disabled badges on the dashboard.
Secondly, it was not a pram-way as you call it. The drop kerb is there to allow two cars to access a parking place. At the time we were there both cars were parked up and obviously had no intention of moving for some time.
If the man had bothered to look at me he would have realised I was very ill and unable to walk any further from the cafe to where my friend had parked the car.
My friend had very kindly picked me up from home in the car, dropped me outside the cafe, parked the car and came to join me for a cup of tea. Then she picked me up from the cafe and took me home where I went straight back to bed to recover.
I hope no one is ever as rude and thoughtless to you, if you are ever seriously ill.
I would hate the man to think I had something really wrong with me, although I don't suppose in the least he is bothered that I am battling cancer.
