Blocking neighbour's car with bins

[Summerisdone]

I know I'm being petty and passive aggressive but am I being that U?
I live in a row of 6 flats and we have a small car park in front of homes just for us as all spaces are numbered. The neighbour who lives in the house opposite has her own drive yet she still takes it upon herself to park in our car park, and not even in an actual space, just a very awkward position so she is next to her drive but not on it. Over the two years we have all been here (new build so all moved in similar times) myself and at least 2 other neighbours have asked her nicely if she cannot park there as it's awkward for many of us getting in and out. She stopped for quite a few months, but last night my mum popped round to drop some bits off and couldn't stay as she said she can't park without hitting neighbours car, I've not had chance to see neighbour today but tonight when I was putting bins out for our 6 flats, she was parked there again. By now I was feeling rather angry, and quite petty so I barricaded her car in with all the bins and recycle boxes; was that really pathetic of me because now I've thought about it I'm feeling it was perhaps too far, but I can't be arsed going back out to move them so I guess I'd like someone to tell me I should leave them where they are to make me feel better

We can't adjudicate without a diagram I'm afraid. Them's the rules

Parking here to see diagram and inconsiderate parker's reaction!

I'm luckily not blocked in as I don't have a car, but neighbours 2&3 have been many times and DM is around at least a few times a week and often found that she either gets blocked in or can't get into the parking space, dependent on if neighbour arrives before or after her. We thought everything was fine as she hadn't parked there since late august when we last spoke to her, but then this the past two nights shows she is doing it again... perhaps she thought we'd have forgotten about it so safe to do so again?

Ewe I have posted a diagram (albeit a very poorly drawn one) just above

That's really inconsiderate as she's blocking 3 people. She should be parking further along the road so she doesn't block anyone imo. It seems like the kind of situation where you should be able to get someone to help sort it but I've no idea if you can.

So she's blocking the way in and out of the spaces belonging to 4 houses/flats?

I hope them bins are heavy.

Parked here for updates now. Love a parking thread- sadly it's the reason I found mn in the first place! Both my neighbours have driveways but refuse to use them, preferring to use up the road instead so parking issues get me going!!

Diagram isn't showing for me.

No diagram OP

Use stealth and the camera flash.

I can't see the diagram!!

Is the car park private land. If it is HA flats then does it belong to the HA?

I can't see it either

I need a diagram 😢

so I guess I'd like someone to tell me I should leave them where they are to make me feel better

I'm happy to oblige. I think you should leave the bins where they are and I hope you feel better.

Yanbu. Sounds like she needed a reminder.

Can any of you see it now?

You're fine. I would've stuck one of DS's joke penalty notices on the windscreen! may have done that to one car that kept consistently parking over the whole pavement once

I still can't see the picture. Are you on the app or not? Can you preview your message.

nope sorry

Where's the diagram pls?

Hahahahahaaaaa, brilliant. Well played OP.

Def park on her drive!

I can see both diagrams.

I can't see the diagram either

I'm on the app, don't know if that's why you can't see it but it shows up for me as posted both times?

PickAChew yep 5 bins and 10 recycling boxes are all rather heavy after Christmas and new year
