Parking..

[Scrumpy]

Just after Sam died I had to pop into town.. Parking was a pain..
I confess.. I used Sam's sticker..  I am not proud..

Don't know if it is universal but around here Blue Badges park free in council parks, but not in private ones which charge. I can't now remember the precise wording of the Kent sign, but the basis of it was that they tried to claim a Blue Badge could only park free for an hour, when the sign actually said nothing of the sort'

Blue Badge holders have to pay in the local authority car parks where we live & I've never seen why they shouldn't have to pay.

Possibly because it encourages them to use car parks rather than exercise their right to park on yellow lines so long as no obstruction is caused.

Yep, I agree Phil. The badge is about disability not poverty.

there are those who will abuse anything. We only used the badge when Veronica was in the car - coming out of the Perth park and paying the attendant looked at the badge and said that I don't have to pay - I explained that was only when Veronica was in the car
