I've done that before, but only because when I use a blue badge, it's
for my
mother-in-law who has lost both legs. The extra space afforded by the
disabled space allows me to open the door fully so I can lift her into her
wheel chair, and guarantees that I can do the same in reverse when we come
back out of the shop.

Ha! If only it did guarantee it. We parked in a blue badge space in
France and some (non bagde displaying) berk shoved his/her car between
ours and the one next to it 'cos the gap was just big enough. Sadly his
wing mirror fell off while getting the wife into the car.



of course, you could have reversed out of the space and helped her in
with plenty of space.

So what you are saying, is that everyone will have the same solution to
a problem that can be solved by common sense?
I very much doubt that.


How did someone so stupid and narrow minded get a job in aerospace?
Mind you, you could be the teaboy.

Common sense..like knowing that sticking your hand in a fire isn't a
bright idea.

And as for the problem solving, there aren't that many things which
only have a single approach to achieve the same aim.



I am glad the aerospace industry does not have your faint heart, or all
those that get on a flight would be risking death, much more than when
they cross a road. The aerospace industry never gives up.


What does a teaboy get paid at BAe nowadays?

Don't know, I was granted early retirment with a good pension in 1999 :-)

However, I need not try to discredit you, your claim that "the
population is actually shrinking slightly", as a botched conclusion
from the birth-rate

Tell you what, let's call it a draw. I was wrong about the population
shrinking and you were wrong about it exploding.

We wasted hours pointlessly discussing matters which are no concern of ours
and, as this is Usenet, isn't that the important thing?

Another inaccurate generalisation, which devalues your argument.

This mother's children were babies only until the next one came. The last
one is still called 'Baby' in fun but in fact his name was used from when
his siblings started using it, when he was a year old. I suspect they
expected that another would be along shortly so he wasn't a baby any more.

It was more fun removing his mirror with my fat arse. Anyway - the wife
actually finds it easier with another car next to her to hang on to -
but she's usually to polite to actually do it.

nuggets or crisps. They soon get hungry and the penny drops.
