To be fuming over parking

[Whatalotofpiffle]

I suspect I am dipping into the realms of the grumpy old women, and am fully prepared to he flamed, but..,,

We live in a small drive, dead end, allocated parking and extra spaces possibly on corners, grass, enough room for 5 or 6 cars outside of bays. Neighbour 2 doors up is going away on a bank holiday trip I think with around 10 friends who have just turned up and parked cars all over the drive. All space has been taken by these cars and the street looks jam packed, and they have all just got in a mini bus with trailer, suitcases etc and are going away. We are 200m from an empty street which all other streets lead from where visitors normally park as this road is so chocca

AIBU to think this us really selfish?

(Puts on fire proud suit and holds on to judgey pants)

They are selfish yanbu!

Yeehaaa, thank you

YANBU, I'd be fuming.

Very selfish and un-neighbourly. I woukd spend the weekend mental,y plotting (but not actually doing anything)

If they've parked in other people's allocated parking then that's totally unreasonable. I'd be leaving angry notes on windscreens- oh and phone or email the local PCSO, they may well pop over or contact the neighbour. There will be a non emergency number or on line reporting system.

How inconsiderate, half pound of bird feed on each roof could you leave a sticky note on all of the windscreens.

Cunts. Key their cars.

Have they parked in other residents alloted spaces? Have they blocked any drives or access points? Have they done anything actually wrong or are you just one of those bored, curtain-twitcher types?

I would be fuming. How inconsiderate. Put sun cream hand prints on their cars. Apparently this never comes out of paint work and will drive them mad trying to buff them out

Have they parked and then left their cars to go on holiday? That would really get the proverbial goat

Mortified, no, they haven't blocked anywhere or parked in allocated spaces but have filled up the whole street, verges, corners, all grass, with cars then buggered off on holiday. I am not a bored curtain twitcher but there is now no space for anyone to park outside of bays, so no room for visitors, delivery trucks as the street is so tight, turning etc etc

Oh, actually, just looked out window and neighbour furious as there are 2 cars in allocated parking! He has just returned from work to find his space filled!

Ah right. Inconsiderate of the neighbour because she could have told her friends to park further away, knowing the street and that it makes deliveries etc tricky . But they are as entitled to park there as anyone else so im afraid there's nothing you can do really

Think boyfriend is home so may have a rant later ha ha

X posts there. Complain then if they are in allocated spaces

That's so inconsiderate. Get neighbour to go round.

Yeah I know there isn't, I'm just pissed off as this street is tight enough as it is and there are 5 abandoned vehicles around now turning it into a maze to get out of

I know IABU as they have done nothing illegal, but seriously, parking shit loads of cars where other people drive, park, kids play etc then going away..., grrrr

Got my goat, and yes, today I do feel like a grumpy old woman

Oh, and also, I have a few friends coming over later who will now have to park 200m away

Hope the cars in allocated spaces turn out not to be holiday cars or we may have street wars when they get back! Will have to see.., an not 100%

God, I do sound like a whinge bag but feel a bit better having a rant

I would feel the same what. other people being inconsiderate turns me into Victor Meldrew too.

Monkeying someone has done this to my car, it is a bloody irritant... Yes OP you must do this!!!

Are they not all going off on this trip soon or have they left them there and gone on the trip?

They have naffed off in a minibus Tig.

With a trailer on the back to hold tons if suitcases... God knows his long for!!

Is it a hen night/weekend/week do you think?
