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.

thanks, for some reason I couldn't make sense of it.

Boney - Yes, you're missing something. The OP stated that the sign is indicating "no parking allowed" on a stretch of public road that's outside their neighbours' house, but that they have designated parking bays elsewhere, and no right to dictate who can/can't park on the road.

Just back from pub ( I retired today ) and I am greeted with a parking thread ! Does life get much better?

BoneyBackJefferson · 20/12/2018 23:44

Just so that we have the full information.

Your neighbour has their designated parking bays outside their house/flat, and have put a sign up to stop people parking there, and because you don't like the sign you are going to wind your neighbour up?

Or am I missing something?

Brilliant! You win my vote for best parking thread of the year, looking forward to seeing what other plans you come up with Xmas Grin

You need an elf with a tow truck for tomorrow Xmas Grin
I'd love to see the reaction this gets with NDN

HoneysuckIejasmine · 20/12/2018 23:05

Oh fab! Ha ha! I don't have any of this bollocks near me, mores the pity. All the houses in my cul de sac have sufficient driveway and no-one is a wanker.

You have just won the internet 😂

Santa's car looks brilliant op. If only you could set something up to catch your neighbours reaction

cheesywotnots · 20/12/2018 22:54

Brilliant, are you going to put the cotton wool snow down

TestingTestingWonTooFree · 20/12/2018 22:52

Surely we don’t have to wait until morning for the reaction?!

WhyDontYouComeOnOver · 20/12/2018 22:50

Shame this didn't start on December 1st - you could have added a little more every day, like an advent calendar.

UhYeahISureHopeItDoes · 20/12/2018 22:50

Amazing. This is something I'd do although I wouldn't have the balls to post it online Grin

StoneofDestiny · 20/12/2018 22:47

This has made my day 🤣

sch1968 · 20/12/2018 22:41

If there is no dropped kerb or private bay, I would park there,just to be awkward
