Angry neighbours

Hi all, this is my first post but I really need some advice. So one of my neighbours has parked in my parking space whilst he has work done to his house. He said I allowed him to park there but myself and a neighbour has said we definitely have not. I sent a polite message saying he should of reminded us of any work and the use of our spaces and he came round swearing at me in front of my kid. I was flabbergasted to say the least! I'm now to worried to say anything. Any advice?

Depends - what do you mean exactly by your space? Is it LEGALLY yours?

I would tell him straight he is not to park there again and keep telling him. He knows he is in the wrong hence the over reaction. People do shit like this because they dont like it pointed out to them.

Tell him he misunderstood but just to clarify he is not to use your parking space as you need it yourself. Is he trying to pinch the other neighbours space too?

Well that’s any bridge he once had burnt - you need to be very clear to him he is not to use your parking space and you will not allow him to speak to you like that. I would happily inform police if he did. I can imagine it was quite scary for you. Do you have support around?

If it’s legal yours, warn him once and if he refuses to listen, have his car towed away.
And call the police if he harasses you again. You’ve put up with it once, in front of your child even, from now on every time he thinks he can intimidate you, you report him.

Your message isn’t clear because you say you didn’t say he could use your space

Then you say he should text to remind you if he’s having work done and using your space?

Where have you parked at the moment?

Thank you for your responses. I never said he could park there and he has since moved his car but slagged ne off to neighbours. Bridge definitely burnt.

Please tell me how you would have the car towed away?

I spoke to the police this morning and have been made away that it is classed as a public nuisance and not a criminal offence. It becomes a criminal offence, if after he is warned, that he should do it again
