Scorchio!

It was 29 degrees C in Milton Keynes today when I went to the supermarket.  Someone had lost or discarded their shoes in one of the parking spaces.  I popped back and forth between the different shops in the area and my car, and at no time did anyone park in that space.  Perhaps their first thought was like mine: "What if the owner of these shoes comes back for them and can't find them if they're under my car..."

This could be the secret of how to save a parking space.  Like putting a towel on a sun lounger, maybe throwing an old pair of shoes onto a parking space deters others from parking themselves there.
