To be tired of turning the other cheek and want to get revenge on my neighbours

Back story we share a drive and despite not wanting to use the drive themselves neighbours do not want us to park in it even to unload shopping and the latest complaint means we can't even leave our wheelie bin in the drive .
so the drive sits empty and despite having space for two cars on their front they like to park one of their cars outside our house I know they have every right to do this but yet again this afternoon as soon as I went to pick the kids up from school he moved his car to outside ours meaning I had to carry a sleeping baby ,toddlers bags and kids half a mile up the road .
Am I being unreasonable to sit here planning ways to get back at them?

Give them written notice that as of Jan 1st, you will be exercising your prerogative to park on your part of the shared drive.

We, too, have a shared drive. The deeds are quite specific: we are not allowed to park on the shared section, it must be kept free for either household to access.

What that means is that, while we cannot park there, we can use that section to load and unload the car, as long as we then move the car off the shared section.

AFAIK there is no specific restriction against having things on the driveway, eg wheeliebins, as long as we do not obstruct the neighbour's vehicular access to their property.

If your drive is shared up to the point at which it splits to the individual garages, then I don't see why you shouldn't be able to put your wheeliebin on your unshared section. You need to check whether the whole of the drive is shared or only part of it.

Do not do this.. You must check the deeds. If they say that you must allow access over the whole of the shared drive then you do not have the right to park on your part of the shared drive.

It's a bummer having such pissy neighbours, though.

I'm sure people must sit and think how they can fuck with people today. They must get off on it.
