Ive stuck a shitty nappy on her windscreen.

So our flats are opposite a Tesco Express. I will admit, parking is limited. But it isnt my fucking problem.

People continously park outside our gates- so we cant get in, and we cant get out. There is a woman who does it continously- a couple of times a week. At least 3 times- and its always the same sort of time. You can set your watch by her.

A few times in the last month she has blocked the exit so I cant get out.

This evening, ive been babysitting my goddaughter and her cousin. GD has been unwell and was feeling worse, so got in the car to take her to A+E. Pulled up to the gate to leave only to find this fucking pain in the arse parking in front of the gate. She refused to move, told me she would only be 10 minutes.

Raging, I got a dirty nappy out of the wheelie bin and stuck it on her windscreen.

AIBU?

Mumsnet is weird tonight.

MamaLazarou · 28/12/2015 23:34

Looking after two children. Where were the children while you were rummaging around in bins?

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 28/12/2015 23:34

So what did she do when she came back?

Justaboy · 28/12/2015 23:34

The only thing you have done wrong is to have used babe poo that does smell rather nice:) Next time if you want something stronger there is something else i can recommend its a very sound my recipe curry, but she might have to get the bomb squad out to remove it its rather unstable it however it might learn her!

A LOT of people like that they need teaching very hard lessons!

FlatOnTheHill · 28/12/2015 23:34

Good for you. Please tell us it was a big ole packet.

LaurieFairyCake · 28/12/2015 23:35

There is no way you told her you had to
take a sick kid to A and E and she said no.

If I had to take a sick kid to the hospital
And someone refused to move I would have moved her car by driving into it while calling the police.

ChristmasBeary · 28/12/2015 23:36

Maybe OP hasn't replied because she's spending a night in the cells for her bull shit escapades.

Takeparacetamolandstopmoaning · 28/12/2015 23:37

What sort of person doesn't double bag their nappies? How much did you have to go through to find a fresh shitty nappy? in my house shit is dried into Nappies hours after they're removed which could be days before hitting the dustbin.

But the police wouldn't be able to do anything about a blocked car in a fake Emerency even if they did turn up before the fake driver came back

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 28/12/2015 23:38

Did you wash your hands afterwards?

Or just return to moping poorly child's brow?

And who's looking after the cousin??!

Am I allowed to say Cobblers ?

ElizabethG81 · 28/12/2015 23:39

If this story is true, then you're both being unreasonable. The parking situation sounds shit, but delving around in bins to find shitty nappies to put on people's cars is disgusting. Honestly, if you have done that then that is horrendous.

If there was a genuine health emergency then I hope the child is OK.

NancyDroop · 28/12/2015 23:40

OP didn't specify that she told the lady that she was headed to A&E. All we have is: wanting to drive out of gate (fair enough), told to wait (U) and shit on window (U and probably not very helpful).

And then just a short outraged MN post due to the haste in getting to A&E of course.

abbsismyhero · 28/12/2015 23:42

there are actually a lot of nasty people out there i had a sick child who was rushed to a&e by us in the middle of the night we had no change for the hospital carpark and he hadn't been seen in the free thirty minutes we were told in no uncertain terms to move our car or get some money from somewhere this was early hours with a 9 week old so yes i can believe someone was entitled enough to say im only going to be 10 minutes

(dp took the car 20 miles home to collect my purse and drove all the way back to collect us so no real drama but the thing is the staff can ask to waive the ticket and raise the barrier in situations like ours and if dp had been there alone he would have been stuck till the following day when i could have caught a bus and we would have paid around £20 to park the car by that point)

hownottofuckup · 28/12/2015 23:43

I don't even single bag my nappies, I just lob them straight in the outside bin

hopelessadventure · 28/12/2015 23:43

Bloody hell OP. Can't say I blame you but you're braver than me!

lorelei9 · 28/12/2015 23:43

Madame, what tune is that please?

Seriously, hope poorly one is okay.

MamaLazarou · 28/12/2015 23:44

So the woman returns after the 10 (or more) minutes, sees the shitty nappy on her car and... What? Realises the error of her ways and moves her car without hesitation? Or could this imaginary nappy on the imaginary car only serve to hold up the imaginary emergency further?

theycallmemellojello · 28/12/2015 23:44

Yeah, come on OP, talk us through it.

You come down, with two small children, one of them sick and presumably crying.

The woman is at her car - presumably just having parked or just getting out.

You ask her to move, holding the sick child (presumably?), telling her you have to take the sick child to A&E.

She says no, I'll only be 10 minutes.

She goes off, leaving you and the crying child.

You put the child down. You go over to the bin, and start looking through it for a nappy. You have to reach fairly low into the wheely bin to do this? You have to open a bin bag that's been bagged up to do this? You have to pick through other rubbish? Sick crying child is sitting next to you by the wheely bins while this is happening. Anyway, you pick out the nappy, and put it on the windscreen.

Then I HOPE in this absolutely true story what definitely just happened you went inside and had a good wash of your hands and arms. And you washed the kids too as you presumably had to touch them and pick the sick one up to get her back inside.

And then you come on mumsnet.

No, OP, you're right, absolutely nothing unreasonable here, it's what anyone would have done in that situation. Hmm

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 28/12/2015 23:45

Wash your dirty hands, wash your dirty hands, with a rub-a-dub-dub, scrub scrub scrub, wash your dirty hands!

Pinkandbluemcdonald5 · 28/12/2015 23:47

In a true emergency I would hope the baby sitter called an ambulance. Not got into a parking rage, rummaging through bins and smearing a nappy over a car window. And then post about it on Mumsnet.

ilovesooty · 28/12/2015 23:48

lorelei I think it's "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" Smile

LookingForwardto2016 · 28/12/2015 23:50

How did she react when you did that?!

Takeparacetamolandstopmoaning · 28/12/2015 23:50

Abbsismyhero the OP wasn't stuck for parking at the hospital, someone apparently blocked her in at her house. So it's not the same

QOD · 28/12/2015 23:53

Ah jeez stop the troll hunting - report if you're antsy

I don't blame you, people are often utter fuckers with parking and it drives me.insane! !

amazingtracy · 28/12/2015 23:53

funny you should post this- I just popped out to grab some essentials for my elderly nan. Some bint ran out of her house brandishing a shitty nappy in a very threatening manner.
I have to be honest- I ran in terror, it was a very shitty nappy!

Care to guess what sight greeted me on my return?
