Come home from school run to someone parked on my private parking.

I've blocked them in as there's nowhere else for me to park and left a note to say I next plan to move my car tomorrow AM.

Cheeky fucker hasn't returned yet.

I would try to leave my car there all week to teach them a lesson

superhappymagicforest · 25/09/2021 07:35

Still no update???? Confused

Guacamole001 · 25/09/2021 07:45

Wind up?

WB205020 · 25/09/2021 08:05

Any update OP?

Wind up?
That's my bet.
SaltedCaramelIcedLatte · 25/09/2021 09:16

How disappointing 🙄

Window1 · 25/09/2021 09:18

Op knows how these things go. She'll be enjoying watching us squirm without an update, which was likely the intention all along.

Move aside nothing to see here.

6demandingchildren · 25/09/2021 09:19

Omg unless the op has been held to ransom then there is no excuse for not coming back to update us.

@TopBlogger

It's a visitor to the house a couple down with no less than 6 vehicles. Cheeky fuckers

How do you know this?

🕵️‍♀️!

They've just rung the doorbell and I am actually sat next to my 4 year old in his bath. No chance I'm answering at the moment.

How do you know that if you didn't answer the door?

OP did say she was watching through her ring doorbell. I presumed she looked at her phone and recognised the neighbour.

Well yes but she also said she was bathing her child when the doorbell went.

@pinkyredrose you can see on your phone a video of who is at your front door with a ring doorbell

Lockheart · 25/09/2021 10:03

@79Beastie

Well this thread was a load of bollocks. Wasted my night waiting for an update like a lot of us i bet and nothing. What could have been a good one is now ruined. Boring, please don't start a parking one and then not update, this makes us all mad.
Why the fuck would you waste your night waiting for an update on a forum thread?

All these salivating posters just desperate for an update... Can't you go and read a book or something if you need entertaining that badly?

It's people like these that make MN a haven for hairy-handed posters.

Oh I didn't know! Sounds cool, I want one now!

QuestionEverythingBaby · 25/09/2021 10:32

Op not returned? Well I did wonder how that diagram worked when she says on another thread that she lives in a terrace house and has neighbours either side 🧐

REP22 · 25/09/2021 10:39

Guess the Dick dicked off... Alas. Have a good weekend anyway (all except Mr C*ckwomble himself, of course).

FuzzyPuffling · 25/09/2021 12:10

Badly done, Emma.
This is a phrase I often use and is perfect for this situation.

You can speak to someone at your door using the smartphone app too. I've done that a few times. You can also get alerts on your phone when the ring doorbell camera picks up someone approaching the door.

We have the whole ring alarm system with the doorbell cam and two floodlight cameras that cover the driveway. It's all really nicely integrated.

Shock You mean you can speak to someone at your door even when you're not in!?

Unless they were pulling people's plonker as well and just saying it for shit and giggles.

Let's face it, parking in front of a car to block them in is hardly the event of the millennium is it.

Clomid1 · 25/09/2021 13:16

Didn’t the OP say it was her sons birthday today? They might come back later? 🍿
