Default Wasp nest

The message
from T i m contains these words:

The Missus was talking about some 'scum' that were occupying a
disabled space in a hospital (and still sitting in the car, parked
over the crosshatching) while she was waiting to park with her
disabled Mum. Eventually she ended up parking next to them and
mentioned that 'their disabled badge seems to have fallen down" and
was told to "shut up" or "leave it" by one of them. If it wasn't for
her old Mum calling her back I'm afraid she might of dragged them out
the car .. and who knows what would happen next .. ;-(


When my wife worked in Harrow Town Hall (or Civic Centre or whatnot)
someone used to leave snide notes on her windscreen about her parking in
a disabled drivers' space. What we couldn't understand was why they kept
doing it despite putting the note within inches of her (then) orange
badge. Eventually we caught the silly cow because she'd written the note
on the back of an old memo. She reckoned that Julie must be abusing the
badge because she parked there every day.
"But you can't use a disabled badge if you're working here".

She simply couldn't understand that a disabled person actually worked
all day, as it happened only about fifty yards away in the same
building.

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.
