Marina Fowler attended the "baby on board" movie session at St Lukes on Wednesday and got a right telling off by some busybody. "I parked in a Parents with Prams parking space and took my 13-week-old son into the movies in his removable carseat. I do not have a 'baby on board' sign, nor do I leave his stuff across the back seat. This note was left under my windscreen wiper: 'How rude and inconsiderate to park in a space reserved for those of us with young children. Perhaps next time you will think of others rather than yourself and park somewhere else. It just shows a lack of thought and politeness'. I challenge the author to come forward and apologise since he/she was too gutless to sign the note."
