AIBU?

There is a strange car parked in front of my house

Literally facing into my lounge, my private parking area not on street. I’ve no idea who it belongs too, must’ve arrived whilst I was putting the baby to bed so in the last 15 minutes. Doesn’t belong to any of my neighbours that I’m aware of (been here a long time, know most of them well). I think it’s cheeky to leave your car on a random parking spot or Aibu?

If it’s your privately owned parking space how could
It not be cheeky?

They probably don't realise it's a private drive. If it looks a bit like a road.

Do you have a golf club near you, OP? Grin

Or a riding hat?

Definitely doesn’t look like a road Ophelia, definitely private drive to front of my house, similar to the others on my very suburban estate.

No yawning, not seen the other thread, off to check it out now though!

Did a nice doctor live in your house previously?

On a serious note though is it in your designated spot or just in the spot you normally use?

If it's the second one then it's not actually yours so you'll just have to wait until they go while silently seething

Come on, you know about 100 posters will be along telling you to block it in so off you go, move your car/OH's car/nice friend or neighbour's car to block it in 😂

Yeah, go out, then block them in when you get back.

Park your DH’s car on the road, blocking it in.

CF. You have to park in the pavement and block them in. It’s MN law

Colours are fine. But what do the pink diagonals designate exactly, is it all hardcore parking? If not, why's the dropped kerb not aligned with the parking area?

Do you have anyone willing to read a book outside to keep an eye on the car?
