While I went to pick up my parcel from my local Post Office. I signalled to reverse into a parking space, when a car totally ignored  me and drove straight into the space I was trying to park in!
I park further up the road. While waiting to collect my parcel, the couple (who nicked my parking space) try to push the queue I was in.They got the hint from me to get to the back of the queue!.
I wonder what was in the parcel?
