I don't think I am.... but "D"H (hereafter referred to as H) has just accused me of having a strop over this so maybe I am?
H is going away with work tomorrow for 2 days. It's a training course, staying overnight.
He has just told me he is car sharing with a woman from his company who lives in the next town over. Fine. Then he says "she is going to park her car on our driveway so I want to put hers tight up against the garage..." I interrupted at this point to say no way.
We have a shared drive with 5 neighbours total, but 3 of us in the "bottom" area. Theres just about space for 2 in front of our garage, next to the neighbours 2 cars. It's always very tight/busy - but it just about works.
I've said no because I don't want to be responsible for any damage that might happen to her car parked on our drive, if the neighbours need the cars moving for any reason I won't be insured to drive hers, if I need to get into the garage (unlikely to be fair) I won't be able to, and it means our family car is at the front of the cars, where it's more likely to get hit by another car attempting to reverse in/out (next door have had delivery drivers hit their car multiple times on the drive). It's just generally a pain in the arse.
I think she should park it on the road, or in the car park over the road that virtually no-one uses. Or get the train to us. Not quite sure why she's driving here for him to be the one to drive... other than H being sexist and always insisting on driving over a woman driving.
Anyway, am I being unreasonable to say no to this and that she should find somewhere else to park? Or is he for telling me this is what's happening without any consideration of any of the above or even asking me?
If you need a diagram I'll try to draw one after work - I'm rubbish at drawing!
