I am that rare male that likes shopping and, in particular, visiting supermarkets. They are nearly always pleasant experiences spoilt by the business of parking the vehicle, loading up the groceries and driving away. It became so irritating that a year or so ago I mounted a campaign to see the introduction of herringbone style parking in all the large supermarkets. I wrote to all the major superstores and other organisations and newspapers (including the DT) but received polite but negative replies saying that the present system is preferable.
