NAR appreciation and crazy parking lady thread 2

Just thought I'd start another thread as the other one looks like it will fill up soon! NDN has knocked again at NAR's house with no reply. I think she may be getting the message!

Can someone link the old thread as not sure how to do it.

Thanks

I can just imagine NDN moaning at her friends (if she has any) that her car is blocked in. (Well, the drivers side.)
When her friends express outrage that someone parked in her spot she'd have to reveal she was parked across two of her neighbours spaces.

EhricLovesTheBhrothers · 20/02/2015 12:30

Surely all NDN has to do is apologise and promise not to park in other people's spaces again and her car will be released? No reason to break the stand off before she does so.

I smiled at NAR's Wife turning up Grin

Don't feel guilty. She selfishly prevented you and NAR from using your own spaces. Not just one, but both, FGS! Dismissed you off hand, and didn't answer the door to you either
and was rude and confrontational on top of everything.
I don't know about being depressed but she's certainly full of bullying tactics.

bloodyteenagers · 20/02/2015 12:54

I think she will be back parking on ops space and will when empty be back on the nar's space.

I have no sympathy for her. She was asked nicely to shift her car. She was rude and then refused to answer the door. She has recieved a letter telling her where to park. She
Parked on someone else's spot and sworn, slamming the door in his face. A note was left on her windscreen and she ignored this. Nar took action and blocked her in. The note possibly warned her this would happen if her car was still there.

This is all her own doing. She could have prevented all of this by not parking in someone else's spot.

Can you parallel park across your spaces OP, to stop her using them?

DinosaursStillExist · 20/02/2015 13:07

I would personally be looking to ensure that your spaces are taken by 5.30 op, preferably by you parking in the centre of the 2

ICantDecideOnAUsername · 20/02/2015 13:07

We're onto a second thread already? Nice one.

This site may give you some ideas OP!.

Looking forward to the updates.

I've got Peppermint tea and Wispas, if anyone wants to share (pg and can't stomach tea atm). Shall I bring my deckchair or are you providing bleacher type seating in your car park OP?

TheReluctantCountess · 20/02/2015 13:10

I don't feel sorry for her at all.

EponasWildDaughter · 20/02/2015 13:15

I think i would've answered the door to her by now. She may well have wanted to apologise face to face. Or at least be civil.

If the door was answered and she was neither of these things then - different kettle of fish.

She may be having an awful time at the moment for any reason. We don't know. One thing is true though - the moral high ground is lost, IMO, if the chance to apologise is removed. Waiting for her to apologise in writing, aka waiting for a note from her, is a bit OTT.

''I'm finding NAR's elevation to Sex God fascinating in what it tells us about what the average woman finds very attractive.''

this too, as it happens.

SirChenjin · 20/02/2015 13:20

If she was so determined to reclaim the moral high ground she could have put an apologetic note through NAR's door and apologised in person to the OP for her earlier rudeness. I note she has done neither of those things - which makes me think she doesn't have any other ishoos apart from her innate cuntness.

No sympathy is required for this woman. Karma is a wunnerful thing.

TheOneWiththeNicestSmile · 20/02/2015 13:23

I think she forfeited any 'right' to a face-to-face discussion/chance to apologise when she was so unspeakably rude to 2 perfectly polite & pleasant people before.

They were reduced to written communication with her. She can't really think they want to chance another volley of abuse from her until after she has proved she's willing to cooperate by writing to say so.

ColdJerseySpud · 20/02/2015 13:24

Speaking as someone who quite often has to boot people out of her parking spaces, Ndn is just reaping what she sowed. She thought she could do what she wanted and bully people into accepting that she did what she wanted.

Now shes met her match and realised that life doesn't work like that.

FyreFly · 20/02/2015 13:30

Thing is though, even if she has had the most terrible life imaginable... WHY doesn't she just use the spaces that she owns round the back of her garage? Doesn't matter how tough you have it, you don't use someone elses property without permission. It's even more obnoxious to do so when you have the exact same facility but just cant be bothered.

You wouldn't park on someone elses drive (well, MOST people wouldn't....), so you shouldn't park in their space. And I mean when it's actually their space that they own, as outlined by the OP. Not some pseudo-ownership-by-proxy of the patch of road that you like to have outside your window.

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 20/02/2015 13:31

Just noticed there's a NARswife!

surely that should be WONAR (wife of NAR)

Lweji · 20/02/2015 13:41

At worst, she could have parked in ONE of the spaces, not both.

The first time OP approached NDN, to ask her to move her car to the side, she offered to NDN the use of one of her spaces when she had no visitors. You can't be more reasonable that that.

AcrossthePond55 · 20/02/2015 13:43

There is nothing that justifies rudeness and entitlement. Even a child knows that they need to 'play nice'. If she had some type of true 'need' for those particular spaces, she could have talked to OP and NAR and explained politely why she felt she needed to park there.

var123 · 20/02/2015 13:44

NDN won't change. There's no way she's been a sweet thoughtful person all her life and just suddenly transformed into a selfish cow with attitude.
She will have been behaving selfishly her whole life and she will have met people before who tried to teach her a lesson.
All that she'll learn this time is that NAR is not worth messing with and look around for an easier target. Someone who will blink first. Sorry, Nanny, but I think that will be you.

Manic3mum · 20/02/2015 13:47

It is irelevant how hard NDN's life is or how tough she has it - good manners cost nothing and a simple apology for parking in wrong space and a promise not to do it again and none of this would have been necessary.
secretly quite glad NDN did not do this
Eagerly awaiting next update, is it 5.30 yet??

EponasWildDaughter · 20/02/2015 13:48

Oh don't get me wrong. No one is as territorial as me when it comes to cars parked in my space, or over my dropped curb. I have and will happily charge out of the house like a thing possessed bung a snotty note on a windscreen or go out and challenge face to face. This woman ... the height of bad manners to inconvenience a neighbor AND actually swear at them when they knock!

I suppose i just feel care should be taken with respect to not sinking as far as she has, with regards to ... 'doing the right thing'. What ever that might be. Just thinking out loud.
