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?

Hello old friends, and new.
All is good in the hood and peace is well and truly restored among the neighbours - although cunty chops doesn't talk to anyone, ever.
It's bliss.

A happy new year to you all Grin

This was a fantastic thread! The diagrams were the best😁

YANBU! They should've bought a house a bigger drive with that fleet of vehicles!

Do one last (nice!) note about not being able to park. Give them one last chance at being decent neighbours.

If they continue to do act like selfish wankers, then start parking at the end of the cul de sac too. Preferably lengthways and right in the middle! Grin

@JennaTools how did you manage peace? At what point did they stop parking like cunts? Did yellow lines ever go down?

We've just moved into a flat and we have an allocated space so all was good as soon as the other flats realised someone had moved in and needed their space.
