Tory Councilor Took a short Sited And Selfish View.
Tory Councilor Gareth Davis) made a comment at a Council meeting saying that most normal people would use the toilet before leaving home and going shopping.

His Comments Made My Blood Boil.
The Councillors comments were partly correct, however, the Councilor was very short sited not to take into account: families with young children, the elderly and disabled, and it is obvious the Councilor is un-aware aware of an Illness called Crohn's Disease?

Local Thurrock Driving Instructor Blows His Top.
As a busy local driving instructor I have not got the time to sit in the B&Q Car park for 4 hours twiddling my thumbs.

I Visited The B&Q DIY store on two occasions on the 15/06/2007
As I am doing a bit of DIY in-between driving lessons I paid the B&Q store two visits on the above date, my first visit was at 07:36:19, I would not have stayed at the store for no longer than 30 Minutes as I wanted to get back before the school run started, that's why I visited the store early.

My Wife Says Its A Man Thing.
Having the materials for the job but not being able to reach my Conservatory roof I had to go back to the store to purchase a ladder, this would have been about 12:15, on this occasion my wife accompanied me to the store, we would not have stayed at the store for more than half an hour.

They Say That Cameras Don't Lie! (Theirs Do - What Is Going On)

Question.
What happened to my image of me leaving the B&Q car Park on my first visit!

Question
What happened to my image entering the Car Park on my second visit!

PS. I have the receipts of my two visits to the store, and I am a very angry B&Q customer.

Update.
ParkingEye did NOT reply to my email regarding my request for the photographic evidence, it is now nearly ten weeks since they sent me a parking fine that I never did pay.
It looks like we have an inefficient Company operating this B&Q Car Park.

PakingEye never had the courtesy to reply to me, I Wonder Why!
