Customers at the Tesco store, Coldfield Drive, may have noticed the relocation of the parent and child parking spaces to the far end, posing a serious safety risk when having to transport our children across a busy car park.

Having been completely stunned by their decision to move these much-needed spaces, I have spoken to their head office, who gave me the following advice.

If enough people complete a ''Comment Card'' (available in the store) to complain about this action then Tesco may consider moving the spaces back again.

So if, like me, you are dreading the prospect of carting your kids across a gauntlet of cars in the pouring rain, please ask for a comment card.

Let's see if we can persuade them this idea was perhaps not one of their best. If we don't act now then nothing will be done.
