Parking situation on my new road.

I have just completed on a new house. When I viewed it I spent time on different days popping by the road at different times of day to checkout the parking situation and all was fine. My house and the one opposite have a drive for 1 car odd road and the others have space for 2. I only have one car.

The house opposite was for sale at the same time and the new occupants have just moved in a couple of weeks after me.
They have 6 cars!!!! (Green)

I have tried my best on the diagram to illustrate where everyone tends to park - each house has a coloured for above and then their cars are the same colour lines.
I only have one car so my driveway is ample however with green house wankers parking their cars all over the place - mainly at the end of the cul de sac - it's really hard to get out of my drive with cars also parked on the road in between my house (red) and my nice NDN (blue)

I've popped round and introduced myself and explained asking them politely not to park the three cars at the the end of the cul de sac (which is a dropped kerb. But they closed the door in my face and I haven't seen them since. Tonight they've got all of their cars all over the road as per the diagram.

What's my best course of action here?

Call 101

I love the fact they thought it through and the solution was to double park and block emergency services from reaching your property. Grin

I'm away until Friday but my mum is due anytime as she's staying here with my little ones. God knows where she is going to park. I've spoken with NNDN and we are going to be calling 101.

Looks like it’s made access to,your drive worse not better!

KitKat1985 · 17/07/2018 21:57

They really are batshit.

Can you get your Mum to do updates on your behalf whilst you are away? Don't think I can cope without an update until Friday! Grin

I didn't think they could park more in considerately than in your original diagram, but I was wrong

TheMonkeyMummy · 17/07/2018 22:00

DH says park in the 6th position if their 5 on the road, if that makes sense. You could completely block all of them in.

itchyknees · 17/07/2018 22:01

You need to give your mum your MN login.

YEAH do that then leave tomorrow. Take your keys with you!

imnotreally · 17/07/2018 22:04

Or your mum needs to take in depth pictures and forward them to you so you can make diagrams while doing this important work thing.

Absolute tw@ts! I would be parking in ‘space 6’ and waltzing off . Absolutely unbelievable.

MoorMummy · 17/07/2018 22:09

I’ve just seen that picture and I’m in shock . No way could I get off the drive.

imnotreally · 17/07/2018 22:09

Er, no.

SubtitlesOn · 17/07/2018 22:09

imnotreally · 17/07/2018 22:10

Is she supposed to squeeze out between the blue and grey car?

JennaTools · 17/07/2018 22:10

@imnotreally fuck knows, she had to wait for them to move it. She's good at photos though so I will be sure to update you all.

Oh I didn’t realise they have BMW’s! Did you not know that gives them the right to park where they like? Even on a tidal beach because the sea will stop for them and won’t flood their car while they’re out on their jet skies. (They’re wrong btw)

SteamTrainsRealAleandOpenFires · 17/07/2018 22:12

How well do you & NNDN get on with the other people in the street? Maybe you all could work together and make it hard for the scum to park all cars in the street?

TwoBlueShoes · 17/07/2018 22:12

Have a good trip!

I think at this stage 101 is the best course of action. Hopefully the police will have a word.

JennaTools · 17/07/2018 22:12

Haha 2 BMWs between them, I won't tell you what the others are.. Grin

LadyFidgetAndHerHandbag · 17/07/2018 22:17

Oh, they've got BMWs? Why didn't you say earlier? Obviously you are now being completely unreasonable. And if they also own a merc that makes you very unreasonable.

Sedona123 · 17/07/2018 22:18

Audis?

LifeofClimb · 17/07/2018 22:18

Oh go on.... Grin
