Came home from a day out to find a van has parked across both mine and my neighbours parking spots! So i blocked him in!

We live in a block of 6 privately owned flats with designated parking spots and next door to us is a mix of council and private owned flats with parking on the street and two small car parks that anyone has access too. We did try to find the owner but short of knocking on all the flats (over 30) we didn't have much hope. So we blocked him in and have informed the neighbours.

There is also a fence panel missing between the gardens!

Oooh I love a good parking thread.

Settles in with popcorn.

YANBU. I would have done the same. Parking across two parking spaces is clearly twatish.

fairiedemon · 04/11/2018 17:10

Are you sure that one of your neighbours is not being burgled?!

HildaZelda · 04/11/2018 17:11

Nope. YANBU. Would like to see his face when he returns!

agedknees · 04/11/2018 17:12

Here is a picture of the lay out the large rectangle with 6 squares either side is my block of flats there are two spaces in front and 4 behind which you access by driving under the building. There is a car in one of the spots (in red) and the van (red) over my spot and neighbour's. My car also red empty square is blocking him in.

I don't understand the fence panel bit. A diagram would be helpful! Grin

Update: the vans door have been opened we think someone is moving out. As it is crammed with stuff. I presume it's a lazy person moving who thought it would be easier to take stuff out the back (lifting the panel) and use my spot.

Moving out or being burgled!

Dollymixture22 · 04/11/2018 17:40

Have you gone out to speak to them? Did they damage the fence?

So he came back, and looked puzzled. He pointed at my car a few times Confused

I then informed him he was parked on private property and he asked me to move. It was all rather amicable but i did have a go at him Blush
