To decorate my neighbour’s new ‘no parking outside my door’ signs with a bit of tinsel?

The sign glows in the dark. It is rather large and looks awful.

Just in case you need it AnneTwackie...

Neighbor came out and he caught me red handed
Pimping his no parking sign
Picture this I was in my pjs
Stringing fairy lights from it
How could I forget that he has
Installed cctv
All the time he was standing there
He never took his eyes off me

But he caught me with the Santa (it wasn't me)
Saw me hanging up the tinsel (it wasn't me)
I even made cotton wool snow drifts (it wasn't me)
He even caught me on camera (it wasn't me)

This is amazing!! I'm in tears 😂

I went delivering cards and dodgy jars of burnt nuts round our village and there’s a house with 2 gargantuan piercing white light reindeers. So badly want to go and leave carrots after reading this. OP, MARRY ME, your fun copper doesn’t deserve you.

Parping would be very immature.

Totally do it!!!!

Rubytinsleslippers · 21/12/2018 19:51

Epic!! And totally mint!!

I've only just come to this thread and I'm already invested.

I have my popcorn.

As you were.

Waiting for fun police husband to go out, trying to behave normally- downing sherry, talking about socks- stealthily gathering supplies... I will break him and we will link and sing carols in the street Xmas Smile

So what’s the plan for tonight? Grin

Jiminybikkit · 21/12/2018 18:35

Shamelessly placemarking

CanuckBC · 21/12/2018 18:13

This is the best parking thread ever! Can’t wait to see tonight’s addition🎅🤶🎄

C00lio · 21/12/2018 18:01

I like to think of all the neighbours sneaking out one by one on different nights to add to the festive No Parking display.

Bringing the whole community together in the spirit of Christmas except weird No Parking man .

Bishops Move use to give away promotional miniature skips. How about a small row of them filled with pebbles and shreds of paper, make a sign saying building works in progress or similar
