Sorry, it’s a DMail link.

Neighbour keeps parking his campervan in her space, so she puts a bollard there to stop him.

Bollard gets pushed over, so she installs CCTV, with a sign saying she has.

This is a description of what the CCTV “captures.”

That's so bizarre!!

justmyluck1234 · 04/03/2023 12:36

I briefly see this article when scrolling through dailymail this morning... I seriously don't understand people's logic 🤷‍♀️😂

QuillBill · 04/03/2023 12:43

I wasn't expecting that! What sort of Ballard was it that he could push over all the time but also...

CanofCant · 04/03/2023 12:55

Good on her. What an arsehole. Of course he was trying to intimate her.

Rainbowshit · 04/03/2023 13:00

He sounds absolutely vile. Glad he's got his comeuppance.

NoSquirrels · 04/03/2023 13:05

Hahaha! Love the bloke’s solicitor saying ‘he’s just a guy trying to work and bring up his family’ (not ‘wank in public and then shag his wife on a parking bollard’). He ‘didn’t do it to humiliate’ and now he’s ‘very embarrassed’. Aww, diddums.

OldEvilOwl · 04/03/2023 13:06

I can't see a link Hmm

Alphabet1spaghetti2 · 04/03/2023 13:12

He knew exactly what she was doing and why. Of course he knew the cameras were there. Kind of personifies exactly why I think mankind is becoming less
civilised with each passing day.
Humans never fail to disappoint me.

@OldEvilOwl it’s where the OP has written ‘This is a description’ - the word This is a link and shows up as blue

'Intimate' her 😂😂😂😂Brilliant and apt typo!

Ah yes thankyou, was on the app on my phone as was difficult to see. I was wondering how everyone else was seeing it Grin

Agreed.

What is wrong with people?!

😂 Oh shit, I missed that.

dapsnotplimsolls · 04/03/2023 13:28

I immediately thought of the parking threads when I saw this earlier :)

dapsnotplimsolls · 04/03/2023 13:31

But was it a penguin bollard?!

SirChenjins · 04/03/2023 13:41

Of all the ways to wind up your neighbour that’s a fairly extreme method - most people would just plant a leylandii or something.

Rogue1001MNer · 04/03/2023 13:52

Hilarious!

Glad they're not prosecuting the wife. Poor woman married to an absolute twat is punishment enough

camelCase · 04/03/2023 13:56

I had to read the title twice, I thought it said "man had sex with his wife's bollard in protest"...it was only when I got to the "erected by neighbour" I read it again and realised my mistake😆

Suspect they thought sex on a bollard was punishment enough - imagine trying to stop that from going places you don’t want it to, whilst a twat of a man is attempting to get his jollies. 😵‍💫

SinnerBoy · 04/03/2023 14:09

I've just read it and posted it to mrsflanders thread...

Maggiesgirl · 04/03/2023 14:14

I used to live in the town in question. That cul de sac is tiny. Anyone looking out if any if the houses woukd have seen them !

Mumoftwoinprimary · 04/03/2023 14:21

The bloke still has his linked in profile up. He used to be a car park attendant! 😂

SirSamVimesCityWatch · 04/03/2023 14:21

What a total fucking wanker. I hope every time he applies for a job and they Google his name, this comes up.

pasta4metonight · 04/03/2023 14:47

Why on earth did his wife agree to do it though?
