Got an 'information only' ticket for parking over two bays. The reason? There was a lamp with a large concrete base on one of the bays, a 4 X 4 on the bay next to the two I was in. As a Focus and lamp-post do not fit in the one, I had to straddle the end of the bay to fit in my car to allow me to fill Mr Waitrose's till with their wages.
None too impressed at the lunacy I sought out the manager - got to a Section Manager who gave me a telling off for parking illegally (I took a photo on my camera phone). I said I would complain online, and asked for section mgr's name, he refused. Store Manager really apologetic, but, I was now on a mission with the section manager for being argumentative and refusing to give his name for a complaint.
There is a good outcome - the manager agreed to hatch off the concrete post bays so this will not happen again.
Personally I think that a word with the parking company to use their uneducated noddles would more than suffice!
Will be interesting to hear the complaint reply....
Think I am turning into Victor Meldrew in my middle age......
