I then began to get a bit frustrated and ended up getting narky and he eventually moved his car but if they get that confused and forgetful they shouldnt be bludy driving!!!
I used to have an old Beetle and not long after I moved to Hyndburn a little old fella reversed quite hard into my car as I was waiting to park. For those who are unfamiliar with how solid VWs are, Micra vs Beetle is only ever going to go one way but the most startling thing was that he was completely unaware that anything had even happened and drove away with a mangled back end.

There was a thread ages ago about what age people should give up driving and I personally am in favour of some sort of retesting after a certain age. My father-in-law was a driver and gave up of his own accord at 70 because he felt his own response times were getting dangerous.

The thing that really winds me up at Asda (and indeed amazes me in equal measure) is how one person can manage to take up an entire aisle whilst shopping aimlessly. Also, to those who insist on holding their conversations in doorways and by the bay ends, just have a bit of thought for the other shoppers.

Oh, and if you can't afford that box of ice creams then at least have the decency to put it back in the freezer instead of dumping it by the soap powder.

I like Asda and have shopped there all my life but the thoughtlessness of some customers is appalling.
