Sod a parking dispute - I bring you a fucking wheelie bin dispute.....

[Babyiwantabump]

Absolutely fucking livid . Probably disproportionately so as I am hormonal but I don't care .

Background description :
House then back garden then garage then fenced area then entryway . All my boundary up to where my back fence meets the entryway. I am end terraced so entry runs down left hand side of garden and house too.

Have lived here many years . Not close with any neighbors . One on the left killed my cat other across the entry is pleasant . Say good morning and exchange pleasantries but no more than that .

Have been finding bins on my bit of land behind my house for a while - thought it may have been a mistake that neighbors might have thought it was my bin and put it there all nice as you do.

Today I have just watched several of my neighbors take the bins of people who are out at work or not in off the street and put them on my land! Like the area behind my garage is a fucking neighborhood bin store ! It's not !

It's my fucking land and AIBU to tell them to get the fuck to fucking fuck and fuck off some more!!!

And breathe .

I would probably put letters through their doors saying "from now I'm charging rent - £20/week".
As for the cat murderer, I would be watering his flowers with salt water every night.

Upend bins in cat murderer's garden and superglue them down by the lid to the path.

Love it Pipi!!

And collection is Friday - I will be sure to update !

If anyone killed any of my cats I's smash all their windows in with a baseball bat and then go after them what the hell? Unless it was totally an accident. Why haven't you called the police?

Why don't you just move them back into the street all in front of the neighbours house

I would not leave them on my land until they're collected

If anyone killed any of my cats I's smash all their windows in with a baseball bat and then go after them what the hell? Unless it was totally an accident. Why haven't you called the police?

OP's already said that they couldn't prove it - the police wouldn't give a toss without hard evidence, and it'd be easy enough for the neighbour to claim ignorance (when we've put harsh weed killer down we keep our dog in, but we've not told any of the neighbours - never really thought about it :/).

It's fairly obvious from the neighbour's behaviour that it was intentional, but that's not how the police work - even cases with a lot of evidence sometimes don't get investigated fully or prosecuted, because it's not deemed worthwhile.

Sad (((Hugs)) on your poor cat :'(

It was 2 years ago that my cat was killed . I did enquirer with the vet and the police if there was anything I could do at the time but they said no as I had no proof and I would have to prove he had intended to harm my cat.

Liking the lie in wait for the idiot who puts the bins there. Be all ragey and hormonal and tell them to fuck off putting the bins there. Could you please film this too?!

I just parked my car in one of their spaces .

This has made me happy. I hope it doesn't get nasty, but a bit of passive aggressive parking-space theivery sounds very therapeutic.

If you have assigned parking (or do they all just like their 'own' space where they habitually park?) then you could use some white gloss to paint a sad cat face in bastard cat-killer's space.

It's not assigned parking no it's "on the road outside your house If you don't have a drive" parking. But there is the unspoken rule and they all get very uppity about it because if one person parks wrong it puts the whole street off .

So I decided to park in the wrong place today 🤓

I think the great thing about wheelie bins is their size. You can easily get in those fuckers.

I was initially thinking that you hide in the each bin in turn (this will need a few weeks of surveillance, to establish the usual bin-pick-up order) , then when the bin-owners come to pick them up, jump out, in the style of Ali Baba, or a Jack in the Box.

BUT actually, the people to blame here are the initial bin-movers more than the bin-owners, imho. So you an accomplice to create a distraction at bin-man time (of a neighbour-tempting variety. A friend with an ambulance would probably be ideal) then hop into a bin (NB position bin near low neighbouring fence - i imagine your street has those), and jump out at them when they come to move it. Ideally, wear a mask. They will never ever do it again.

Cut a hole in the bottom of the bin so when filled in location all will seem fine, but when wheeled to the kerb...bingo.

When's the next bin day?

Serves them right, parking in the wrong space. I think you should do it every day.

Tomorrow I might park over two spaces evil cackle

LOL are you on the vino, OP?! Dutch courage I say - over two spaces!

OP, you rebel!

We'll need a diagram of the parking spaces, with highlighters if possible.

Where do you live OP? I have a huge van that would fill two spaces

Oh, a friend with an old banger parked on your street (legally). And you breezily announce he's moving overseas for 6 months and you'll be keeping an eye on his car for him. Have to run it occasionally, so of course you'll be moving in around a bit.

Marvellous! Love the parking space thievery. Well done OP!

You do realise your car is likely to get keyed?

If my cars was keyed, I would make sure that it was just the first in an oegy of car-keying gn the street, by person or persons unknown.

A neighbour of ours keeps putting her bins on our drive way. I really don't understand why. There's our bin, next doors and then hers but she lives round the corner . If it wasn't so full and I was pregnant I would drag it round to her house. My dh comes home from work at gone midnight and she's blocked our drive off. Even if our car is on the drive she puts her bin behind it.

Is it a comment on my pathetic little life that I am inordinately happy that tomorrow if Friday? aka BIN DAY!
