8 months pregnant with twins and I'm huge, our drive way has 2 side by side spaces on a really steep slope and not a lot of width. Up until not I've had no problem getting in and out mine / dps cars but I've gained whale status this last week or so and started finding it a lot harder to get in and out of our cars on the drive as I can't open the doors very wide and the slope makes it a bit trickier . There's a space on the road in between mine and neighbours house, they have a large drive with 1 white van and 3 cars on. They often have visitors who use this space, no problem - until they blocked me in twice this weekend so I had to reverse up the slope onto my grass to get out.
I didn't say anything so not to be a naggy neighbour. Today I parked on the road space as I really didn't fancy the squeeze between mine and dps cars or trying to get out on the sloped drive.
I've just received a note through the door which reads in capitals
PLEASE CAN YOU PARK ON YOUR DRIVE, PARKING IS DIFFICULTY ENOUGH ON THE CUL-DE-SAC ALREADY!!!!!!
There's not a parking problem round here and plenty of road spaces around other people's houses.
Not sure if I'm being hormonal and unreasonable to park there (albeit once in the 6 months I've lived here), or if this is a bit rude of them?
AIBU?
Another Parking Thread..

What a cheeky fucker! I'd have been telling at them after this! 
its public highway. You are entitled to park there!
We've had similar issues with the twunt over the road.
Stick to your guns, and don't engage with the bully.
On a positive note he no longer speaks to us 
Or you could be pedantic and get your hubby to park in the street instead while you use the drive? at least you're doing what he asks?
Sorry that's not much help, but in my experience with people like this, you give an inch, they take a mile xx
I would definitely be parking there as much as possible from now on! He doesn't own the road, silly man.
I'm still parking there and he's got a sulk on and ignores me, which is fine by me
Oh no I went to the hosp for a scan on my own and got back and he's reclaimed the space, I'm sitting in the car crying haha I'm a bit hormonal today

Is it mean of me to be hoping your houses are terraces or semi detached with very thin walls and that in about 1 months time he will be woken each time your babies wake?
I call that Karma.
