AIBU to park in MY OWN bloody allocated space!!

Fuming and even more angry I looked at phone before I went too sleep, now wide awake.

My neighbors (we live in a private rented development, two allocated spaces each) the past 10days I have had two cars as one will be sold or go to scrap after Christmas. For the first time I’m using both my spaces, since they moved in, in February I regularly don’t have even one space because they spread, really far taking up so much room I can’t park one car let alone two! It’s been really tough, i finish work later than everyone else, it’s dark and I can’t park in spaces so have to find somewhere else, tonight she has tracked me down on FB 🤦🏼‍♀️ and messaged asking me to be ‘a more considerate neighbour’ shes only had a problem since I’ve had two cars but me using both my spaces has made it difficult....for her! Her and her housemate are parked in their two spaces tonight with plenty of space, it can be done (how on earth do they park in car parks?) She just wants the convenience of my spaces too. she’s asked for me to move my car up partly in to another neighbors space because ‘they don’t use it much’

Please help me find grown up words that don’t include ‘WTF you OED!’ to tell her to go, but nicely I do need to live next to her but, wow, just WOW...unless IABU 😏

I would sorn the car and leave it there too 😂

But I think the idea to take it to the estate agent/letting company is best. Get in there before she does

I'm usually quick to 'demand😜' Diagrams, But Op described this very well. 😎💐

I think it's very important for me to add at this point that I asked for a diagram on page 2. Grin [Proud follower of Mumsnet parking threads]

So you did @Kitkat...as did @HolidayShopping so I was coming to that 'tantrum' quite late after all Grin

I’d still quite like a diagram though.

Set up some fake accounts and rent her spaces out op.

AHEM... I believe I was first to ask for a diagram Grin (despite the fact that yes, the OP described the situation perfectly well).

I wasn't having a tantrum, but may well do on the next parking thread though.

WhatchaMaCalllit · 13/12/2018 16:19

@trulybadlydeeply - LOL!!! Sorry I didn't see your request for a diagram in the plethora of requests for a diagram Xmas Grin

Off to find another parking thread where we can all throw a tantrum! Goody!!!
