I choose not to apply for a badge, but I often have problems managing
shopping, so frequently use the disabled spaces at the supermarket.
Should
I
have to spend hours trying to get my window clean for daring not to give
the
civil service even more paperwork?

No, you should bloody well apply for a badge and stop being lazy.

I agree.

Many years ago I did use a disabled parking space for a time-sensitive but
very short appointment when I couldn't park near my appointment. Full of
guilt I left a note saying that I was temporarily disabled by a broken leg
and when I would be back.

On my return a meter officer was standing observing my progress which was on
crutches with a pot on my leg. She didn't approach, I was grateful for her
attitude as well as her vigilance.
