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.

@PlonkyWillyWonky

Take the note off and crack open a beer
"Sorry I've had a drink so it'll be at least 12 hours before I can move the car safely" Smile

FanFckingTastic · 24/09/2021 17:30

Oooo, this one sounds like it could be spicy!! Placemarking, and settling in with wine and nibbles!

"knobchariot" made me Grin and im sure i shall have occasion to use this word in the future.

MiloAndEddie · 24/09/2021 17:32

I love that you’re spying through your ring doorbell

SweetBabyCheeses99 · 24/09/2021 17:33

Awesome! Same happened to me once and the Dick in question got in his blocked car and just kept honking the horn to demand to be let out! He kept insisting that he knew my “landlord” - didn’t consider that a woman might own a property! I told him I couldn’t possibly move until the next morning as I’d had a drink so couldn’t drink & drive!

@AlCalavicci

It really was the stuff of utter legend.

I'm still very sad for the lovely OP of that one that her particular CF never really had the comeuppance he so richly deserved.

This one, however... excellent diagrams @Threearm - best wishes to you Wine

Place marking! Love a good friday night parking thread.

LST · 24/09/2021 17:36

Shamelessly marking my place

Geriatric1234 · 24/09/2021 17:37

YASSSS parking thread! puts the popcorn on

Robyn101 · 24/09/2021 17:38

Oh delightful. Parking my bum to check in later Grin

SunshineCake1 · 24/09/2021 17:38

@ivykaty44

when they come to the door

look at surprised and say

who the fuck are these two cars parked on my drive?

ask which there car is.
and then say

serves you right someones blocked you in....

turn tell them to sort it out with the driver and storm off back in the house and slam the door

Best suggestion ever. On any parking thread.
thefirstmrsrochester · 24/09/2021 17:40

Ooooh that’s my nights entertainment sorted Grin
Takes a super cheeky bastard to park on someone else’s driveway. Hope both you and your neighbour have glasses of Wine in hand and so over the limit to take your car into the public highway to let the fekker out.

kitkatsky · 24/09/2021 17:40

Lostmarbles2021 · 24/09/2021 17:41

TheChild · 24/09/2021 17:41
