Maybe someone should suggest 1 of these to M 🐧

It didn't seem so, it led to a massive bitching session in the street. Maybe when it was a one off she wasn't so bothered. Now it looks like she will just park there all the time, she's not so happy?

Did M mind when B parked there a few weeks ago?

It means B is almost at the junction of the road.
M has lived here forever.
B just quietly did what she was told. Very very odd.

I want to say I'd feel mortified if someone who has community nurses coming in so clearly isn't well ( or anyone for that matter) knocked on my door because I'd parked on their drive. But I wouldn't park on their driveway in the first place anyway so it's a mute point how I'd feel.

Was B best mates with the previous M who allowed her to park there so b thinks the arrangement is still on

Does 'behind strange car' mean she is blocking strange car in?

HelloBambinos · 10/03/2020 09:10

Good for M.. I would be royally cheesed off too.. Why does B think its acceptable? The thing is because M was quiet about it the first time and joined B in ranting about others parking B now feels entitled to her driveway.. Good on M for putting her in ehr place.. But we will see if it happens again tonight when hopefully there are no other spaces available.. What was Bs reaction when M told her to move.. Did she have a rant about how ridiculous the parking is or just quietly do as she was told.. Which I would be surprised at.. Also more importantly.. Was she wearing her pink dressing gown?

Interesting how there was no massive joint rant about all the neighbours meaning there's nowhere to park. All over very quick. I feel M isn't happy.

She's got some brass neck parking on M's drive Shock

LargeGinOnTap · 10/03/2020 08:34

🤣 this is getting ridiculous

M has just been across knocking on Bs door. Assume she told her very quickly and in no uncertain terms to move now. C has returned and parked in 3 and D is still in 1. B is now allllllll the way down the road behind Strange Car next to X Grin

I think F may be on holiday. There's too little drama for the frequent use of her space for it to be otherwise!

I hope M's carers go and knock on Bs door and make her move.

Tandia · 10/03/2020 07:41

Did C and F both stay out all night?!

TeetotalKoala · 10/03/2020 07:24

I couldn't agree more @themueslicamel

themueslicamel · 09/03/2020 23:36

I wish there was a way B could, without compromising @Originalcatlady find out that several thousand people from many countries on multiple continents globally, think that she is a monumentally entitled bell end.

WatchOutLurkerAbout · 09/03/2020 22:49

Have the cars magically moved? Has a space suddenly appeared? Should B now be renamed Madame B of Parkings school of witchcraft and wizardry?

Sorry I'm tired and had the shittest day so my brain is in stupid mode.

TeetotalKoala · 09/03/2020 22:48

This is ridiculous. It can't go on like this! Have you seen this?

Oh, she's so entitled. M has to be getting pissy now.

M is in bed (I can hear their house alarm setting, I'm not a total stalker.)

Poor just in time to check for today! I hope M comes out and tells her to move or will M be in bed by now?

givemebooks · 09/03/2020 21:55

Thank the parking karma gods!! Hope M gives her hell if they need the space for medical visits

Mr B is now out. I'll let you all write the conversation, I'm sure you know all the words now.

B is now standing in the middle of the road. Yes the middle. Looking up and down at the cars and the houses, as if this will magically make people come out and own up to parking in her precious space.

She can however, manage to park in Ms drive on the first attempt.

Which will be interesting in the morning, as they have been having carers/district nurses park on the drive first thing every day.

Apparently it takes four drives up and down the street in first gear to establish that it's ALL FULL UP!!!
