To block this car in...

I'm at my mum's. she lives on a a fairly narrow hill, you can park on the road but it's best if you park half on the pavement. I'm going camping for the weekend with friends who are coming to pick me up in an hour. I've just popped to the shops for supplies of crisps and wine and some cheeky bugger has parked on my mum's drive.

I've text all my family and no one has any knowledge of this car. Would I be a total arse to just reverse onto the drive right upto their bumper and leave my car there for the weekend? I really don't want to leave my car half on the pavement for a whole weekend. A few of the NDNs have double buggies and there won't be enough room for them to pass. I also don't want to leave my shiny lovely car under the tree on the road cos it will be covered in bird poo and tree sap when I get back.

Mum is also away this weekend too so I can't even leave the keys. Grrrrrr.

It'd better be Lord Lucan with shergar in the boot.

Ok. So we have major parking issues where we live. I call my husband the Rottweiler when it gets bad.

It is actually illegal for someone to block your driveway so you cannot get out.

If you are parked out of your drive. The police don't care.

If it definitely isn't your car and any family members, block the fucker in. Cheeky bastard.

Stayingclassy - did you count the place marking posts?! How long did that take?? But yes I agree it is daft.

Can you all just shut up till OP gets back if at all? Cheers.

Hey, has there ever been a bunfight just amongst the place markers before? Imagine OP coming back to that! Grin

Imagine the shit that the 1000th poster will get for filling up the thread if she still hasn't updated!:)

"Imagine the shit that the 1000th poster will get for filling up the thread if she still hasn't updated"

Well stop filling it up then!

SisterMoonshine · 17/08/2014 22:20

I don't wish to state the obvious ADishBestEatenCold, but.....

ClashCityRocker · 17/08/2014 22:24

Can we all just agree that if/when it gets to 999 messages, no-one posts? Other wise we will never know and some things are just too sad to think about.

ADishBestEatenCold · 17/08/2014 22:24

"I don't wish to state the obvious ADishBestEatenCold, but....."

See! Now someone else has filled it even more!

SoonToBeSix · 17/08/2014 22:26

Exactly stop filling it up then.
[ misses point]

allisgood1 · 17/08/2014 22:27

I cannot believe I just wasted 15 minutes of my life reading this thread and there is still no update!!!

PlushSuppie · 17/08/2014 22:27

Is it possible it was a wind up?
Cos surely the op would've been back by now?
Did she say when she was due back?

BoneyBackJefferson · 17/08/2014 22:35
