Enforcement is widely ignored, pedestrians are left to struggle around these obstructions and drivers care only about their own convenience. What's needed is something like the Catclaw:

Yes, it has obvious drawbacks but something that turns the tables on selfish drivers is long overdue.
(And don't have a heart attack, it's just a concept to provoke discussions on pavement parking, not a real product.)

Please dont do that. The guys manager has responded positively, assures me the driver is going to get a good bollarding, and Im happy with that. I don't want to be seen to be an arse just for the sake of it, so I'd be grateful if you could take that down from Faecesbook please @mjr.
I do appreciate the solidarity though.

I must admit, I do like the look of their product.

I am getting worried about you @Drago, that could almost be a plus for Facebook (ie making you aware of those products), and, if I am not mistaken, up thread you were talking of taking photographs of offending pavement parkers, could a smartphone with camera be on the cards?

Thought so too. I've bought a few as well when I've been visiting my eldest in Lincoln; they do make decent cakes
. No PR is bad PR and all that stuff 
Not quite as good as Cooplands' Danish's but decent all the same.

Are you sure? y/n
After all, it's brought this topic to a nicer conclusion and now there's a link to their products. I'll remove it if you like, nonetheless.

If you could remove it @mjr I'd be grateful. Id emailed the firm early am and they responded pretty quickly, but I didn't see my emails until some time later. By the time id seen their already several hour old reply youd posted your FB bit.
Its not a problem chum, you werent to know, but they did respond quickly and positively and that being the case it wouldn't be fair to hassle them further.

Heck,that's a bit extreme. Have they thought about how long that obstructive vehicle will be there while the owner gets someone to come out to repair/replace the popped tyres?🤔

Indeed. Dynamiting is better.
