Ultra soothing parking thread

Hi,

For anyone who is in need of a soothing parking thread, I wondered if you would like to share our Saturday afternoon joy?

Someone has blocked our drive with a very nice little red car and we can't get our car back in.

I have put a note under their windsceen wiper and started the clock to see how long it is before they come back.

There is literally nothing else to it. We have our feet up in the garden and are enjoying a lovely sunny day. It is sunny, but not too sunny. Pretty good really.

I have attached a digram.

Clock started at 3.30pm.

There is a prize for anyone who acheives total tranquility before the car goes.

Thank you for joining us.

It's one of the things I love about MN. The OP can be quite inocuous and then you skip straight to the last page and find that people are in a rolling fight on some entirely different topic. Classic MN.

Like the butterfly in the net thread 🤦‍♀️

In 2012 I fancied buying a Suzuki swift. I had to put £100 deposit to get one transferred to the Suzuki garage in Ackworth West Yorkshire. The car didn't come they messed me around so I bought a ford focus from another garage and never got the deposit back.
They were very horrible salesmen.

Have to say I would never have the audacity/CF ery to park across a driveway.

And the receipt thread feels like a school holiday attrition thread!
