AIBU - To feel I have started a Parking war!
We have a parking bay for 2 cars (lined by the council as one long parking space but can fit 1 small and 1 large car) in between our house and neighbour. We both have driveways as well as the parking bay in front. The problem is my NDN has 3 big cars and always park 1 of their cars in the middle of the parking bay when they take the other cars out. When they come back in the evening, they will move the car further up in front of our house and park another car behind so basically hogging both spaces for their car while leaving the front of their driveway free to drive in and out. Us on the other hand have 2 cars in our household so while 1 car is in the driveway, we park the other car across the driveway but this is not always possible depending on how they park, we can't fit the car without blocking NDN on other side. I have asked them politely to give us a bit of space to park car in front to no avail. Last week, I dropped a note asking them again if they can allow us to share the parking bay by parking a car each but they still parked in the middle. A few days ago, ( I admit I was angry), I parked my dd's car at their end of the parking bay and left it for 3 days while we parked the other 2 cars at ease. But just yesterday, as ds went to move dd's car, they came out of their house and started shouting at him. I have now moved the car and they have parked in the middle of the bay again. AIBU to feel so upset about this. I hate confrontations.
