To be considering this re neighbour's parking

My neighbour is one of those types obsessed with his parking 'space' outside his own house (ordinary public road, you never have to park that far away). He once moaned/ shouted at me in the morning for parking in 'his' spot. Just arrogant, told me to 'watch my car'. I laughed as he drives a new 4x4 Merc whereas I have a 18 yr old wreck so playing that game is daft. Really went out to intimidate me as he saw the easy target of a youngish mum with a baby (I'm not though).

Now he's taken to leaving his bin/ recycling bins in 'his' spot when he goes out. He's just gone out. I have a huge urge to move my car, park there, and place the bins in the same spots on my parcel shelf/ back seat/ front seat.

Tee hee.

oh oh oh no, do a Green Wing on him!!!

fill his "space" with sand, and all sit out there in deckchairs drinking cocktails.

thank him for helpfully cordoning it off for you

Pop all your recycling in his bins, he must be offering a public service leaving them there, very thoughtful of him.

Mess with his mind, swap the bins in "his" parking space for some other bins.

Invite a contingent of bikers to tea , they could all park in the reserved spot.

If he's putting the bins out and it's not collection day he can get fined, so report him.

I seem to be saying this a lot recently but you could report him on fixmystreet.com (with photo's) and they will tell the council on your behalf. You can report anonymously but do need an email address to confirm your report.

I like the superglue and body outline ideas though.
