    17 people 'thanked' the post with the pic of the clamped Traffic Solutions Ltd van. Why do you think that is?;)

    I get the picture alright, dont get the link to this article on suspected paedophiles. :confused:
    Doctor driven out of home by vigilantes

    Special report: child protection


    Self-styled vigilantes attacked the home of a hospital paediatrician after apparently confusing her professional title with the word "paedophile", it emerged yesterday.

    Well, you already explained it on the page previously.
    Lets call it a case of mistaken identity :rolleyes:
    I had to look again myself. :D

    You have to admit though, at first glance, it does look like a clamper van.

    Absolutely, it was the first thought that crossed my mind too. The point is that too much assuming and too little observing & reasoning will make a fool out of anyone. I mean, people are still thanking it, FFS.:D

    Personally, I think that people are scanning the pages for pics of OP's and ignoring all the comments thereafter.
    I'm also guilty of that when I'm at work or just busy. I do it on the HWIST pages also. :o

    OK I understand it now. I never mistook that van for a clamper, I know the company and what they do, I thought the photo was irionic with "Traffic Solutions" on it. ;)

    I was in Tesco Coonagh Cross at 10pm on Sunday and 90% of the cars were parked in disabled spots and no visible cards.

    There didn't seem to be any disabled folk on the shop either ( very empty ).

    The car park was built to accomadate the unfinished shopping centre hence all the disabled parking spaces. It is crazy how many people abuse parking at Tesco especially the layabout scumbags who just abandon the car at the door.

    I parked right in front of the wooden gate into the construction yard. 2 spaces for the price of one :D and a lad says to me "You're blocking the gate".................Yeah buddy they are going to start work on the new shopping centre any day now. :rolleyes:

    I can't believe I'm considering defending a BMW, but I'm not sure what you'd fit in the space closest to the wall, other than a motor bike. Maybe I'm just looking at it funny, but to me it look like in order to be the same size as the space beside it, it would need to extend to the metal join in the road.

    There is a space in Tesco Nenagh where the furthest left space was made by monkeys. They clearly didn't measure the car park before embarking on their line painting. IF I can get the space next to it I straddle both of them.
