And on e again another thread descends into abuse, which is quite typical for this site nowadays. I think I need to update my ignore list.

We need fewer cars on the road and indeed, we should ban people from keeping cars if they don't have a private parking space* to keep them on. Cars SHOULD NOT be parked on the road, or the pavement. These are places for the public to use and not for selfish people to leave several tons of their own junk on.


*And no, paving over your front garden should not be permitted.
So people with cars aren't the public? Roads & pavements are for the public's use, but car owners aren't the public? Utter tosh. Some people have no choice.

Not just that, you aren't even allowed to turn your private land into off road parking for one, which is a bit weird really as potentially everyones drive was at one point just grass. I'm assuming he/she/it means that they have land that is already turned into a drive and that is OK but nobody else should ever be allowed to do the same as they have?

We're lucky, we managed to turn our front garden into a drive (gravel drive @ proactive ) better for the environment than paved driveway, but we still can't afford a dropped kerb, so bump our cars up. Minime now has a car, and has had to ask a neighbour further up the rd' to park Infront of his house as we have no way of accomodating 3 cars.

Still don't follow but I have had what some might consider to be an excess of red wine...
Ditto, not wine.... Gravel drives better than a paved drive? For the environment.


Apparently it posted some random crap, instead of my post....
