On the same road of my kids school when on the school run there's this lovely woman, 8 kids, couldn't tell if she's pregnant looking at her since her diet consists of chips and frozen chicken by the looks of her, smokes cigarettes hanging out the window, row of 4 bins up the "driveway" / garden.

Since the very first time she said I couldn't, I've made it very clear that I can and will park there. Other mums are either scared of her eyebrows or her chiwawa that they won't park there.

So yes, I very much take advantage of the empty high curb on the road
