Langenhoven Drive Oncology Centre – Illegal Parking

1 March 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Langenhoven Oncology

Dear Alan, I am writing to you about the 'parking problem' outside the Langenhoven Drive Oncology Centre, which is situated on the corner of CJ Langenhoven Drive and Mangold Street, Newton Park. While there is a large parking area available behind the hospital, people see fit to park in Mangold Street in front of the hospital. They do so, without any regard for other road users. To exacerbate the problem, they park directly opposite the entrance to the office complex across the road. It is … [Read more...] about Langenhoven Drive Oncology Centre – Illegal Parking

Peep into the world of the Disabled

Disabled Parking Warnings

Ja, ja, ja - here he goes with the speech again I can hear you say............ Those people who park in disabled parking spaces really get my knickers in a knot - they are probably the same ones that drive 1 kilometre to the gym and get highly irritated when they cannot park at the entrance. My young niece, Emily has also joined in the cause and sent me two images that she found on the internet. One image came from a blog by Katie called, Hedgehog Blog. Katie says; "Welcome to the chaos … [Read more...] about Peep into the world of the Disabled

How I got Caught

31 July 2012 By Alan Straton

Disabled Parking

One of my more idiot savant tendencies is to stand up for the disabled by preventing people not authorised to do so from parking in spots reserved for disabled people. Today I am still kicking myself for realising that I am a bleeding heart liberal prejudiced white male - although I am not too sure which word I should place my 'ist' at the end of. On occasion the Longhair, her Apprentice and I like to stroll to the shops with the hairy four legged monsters in tow. Last night we popped … [Read more...] about How I got Caught

I get my revenge on selfish able bodied disabled parker

26 February 2012 By Alan Straton

Disabled Parking

We live in a wonderful country with a wonderful constitution and incredibly friendly people who have overcome racism and prejudice in what other countries term a miracle. I am sorry to say, though, that to this day there are still people who continue to cling to a racist and prejudical past and none more so than those able bodied people who insist on parking in the disabled parking bays. This past Friday I observed a woman park her silver double cab in the disabled parking close to the … [Read more...] about I get my revenge on selfish able bodied disabled parker
