There are playing fields on the side of the road that leads up to Grange Road, near Marley Park - the road that ends in a T junction with Lidl on the right-hand side. I drive up that road on a Tuesday evening to go to yoga. There are always lots of cars parked on the cycle path on the side of the road, forcing traffic over the line. That's bad enough, but last week must have been a particularly busy evening - maybe it was the last night before the little darlings go on their holidays. One car was double parked - yes, double parked so that cars had to drive completely on the wrong side of the road to get by him, and another car was parked at such an angle that she was sticking out onto the road, just before the roundabout. In both cases, the drivers were in their cars - the woman was actually reading her newspaper. She obviously wasn't that interested in Little Johnny's game.
But the worst bit, wait for it, there is a small car park on the other side of the road, just beyond the roundabout - and it was half empty. These 2 drivers could not be bothered driving another 50 meters to park safely. I should have called the guards in Dundrum, but I know they would not have come out for this. The last time I complained to a guard from Dundrum station about people parking on the footpath, he did absolutely nothing about it.
