I am asking this question because a few years ago i went with my friend to a dentist in colchester, there were no spaces in the actual dentists carpark, but to our luck just next door there was a large carpark with plenty of spaces.
We nipped into a space and went to her appoinment, about an hour later we have gone to get the car to find the gates of the carpark closed, we rang the buzzer and a soldier came out to meet us, he asked my friend if she had her M.O.D card, my friend is deaf in one ear and her reply was of course i have an mot, i have tax insurance and everything else.
He then went on to tell us she was lucky she still had a car to come back to, yes we had parked in a ministry of defence carpark, i blame the person in front who left the gate open we still laugh about it now.

i was bit "under the weather" and parked very very close to a cliff backed into a tree which in the morning realised it had actually saved me!

Great story, I once parked near a beach in Bridlington. North Yorkshire. Me and a few friends went for a day out. Anyway we wandered along a quiet cliff top walk but had to leg it back to the car an hour later due to a down pour. We sat in the car eating sarnies, drinking tea and drying off when we all fell into absolute silence at the site in front of us. Three men and two women got into the VW caravette parked ahead of us, everyone of them was stark naked! Unbeknown to us, we had parked near a little known nudist beach!

I parked at a restaurant once. That wasn't so unusual, but what was, when I returned, I found my VW bug sitting on 4 beer cans, one standing upright under each tire. It has been some years and the beer cans were a lot harder then.
The place was a hang out for high school kids and some college people too. My friends were the curlpits.

I went on a backpack with friends in the Anza-Borego Desert one spring. I drove us up a dry stream bed for miles in my Saab 99LE.
Finally, late in the day the canyon got too rough and narrow, so I drove up onto a hump of sand in the middle of the stream bed and parked.
We camped there for the night, and as we were cooking our dinners over our camp stoves and doing the usual camp gathering 'round the campfire, a few backpackers hiked up the way we had come, and there was my car sitting on an island in the dry stream bed. I had just had it detailed, and the stream bed was just damp enough so that it didn't get dusty, so it looked for all the world like it was on a display stand in a car show.
