"I was invited out for Saturday cream tea to celebrate a colleagues wedding at Skelton Mills but was barred by their extremely unpleasant and socially stunted owner before I even got inside! There was hardly any car parking spaces and I was required to find a space outside of it next to a badly fenced off barn, basically the venue didn’t have enough parking room it wasn 't a car park just a space that was already packed with cars . So I parked my car by the fence and proceeded to the "mill ' for afternoon tea. As I walked to catch up with my friend Louise the owner shouted after me telling me I 'd covered 3 parking spaces it was just a muddy bit of land and I needed to move it . He wasn’t remotely polite or accommodating as you might expect a business owner and host to be , in fact he shouted at me from a distance, his attitude was ridiculously poor ! And when I responded with’ there 's nowhere else to park’ he kept it rude and mansplained, talking down to me . He had to have the last word and never once spoke in a pleasant or conciliatory way about what was essentially a non incident that was easily fixable. He just upped the anti and became ruder and shouted and this with a garden hoe in his hand! And even if he did own the joint it wasn 't as if the patch of mud people had to cram their cars into was even a car park ! So I stood up for myself and he barred me! I’m now having a latte and scone at M&S Haha! What a come down Not !!! WTch out for grumpy trashy barons with farm implements!"
