Has anyone else noticed...
that it doesn't matter where you park you car in any given parking lot, some berk will always park right next to you!
Whenever I use a parking lot, I tend to make sure I park my truck on its own, preferably not near any other vehicle or lone shopping cart - it always amazes me that upon return to said truck, there will, 99% of the time, be someone parked right next to me.
I am not one to be vying for a space close to the door, in fact because of my parking quirk, I tend to end up in the spot furthest from the entrance.
I never noticed this sheep like behaviour in the UK - what's going on???????

Another theory I have is that the other person saw you park and took a fancy to you. When you were out of site he/she parked next to your truck in the hope that when you went back to it he/she would be there to chat you up.

That must definitely be what's going on 
- maybe they took a shine to me because I was the only person out and about this morning who wasn't wearing socks with my sandals!
