Are you a matt parker?

I hope not. Matt Parker is not a real person. It’s how I describe people who are either blissfully unaware or selfish (probably the latter) and will park a car at the side of the road, leaving half a space in front of them and half a space behind. If they’d just go a couple of yards forward or back, another car could slot in too. This infuriating mode of parking is named after Matt, my neighbour. He’s done it again. His car is currently right outside his front door with a half space in front of it, and half a space behind. So I’ve had to park miles away. I’m blasting this out right now in the hope that he’ll “tighten up” the way he parks. But I doubt it. He’s blissfully unaware. And selfish.
