Aibu over lady using my parking spaces.

We live in a housing estate and each house or flat has one or two spaces allocated to them. Most of the spaces are directly outside our houses except a few that are round the side that have garages. The spaces aren't numbered but everyone seems to know who's is whose. There's a new neighbour that has moved in next door to me (a corner house) and has a garage parking space round the back of her house, however she uses both my spaces as she parks in the middle of them. It's quite annoying when there's nowhere else to park as you have to park further down the road.

I went over today and introduced myself and poilitley told her the spaces were mine and hers was round the back but she was welcome to use our other space when we don't have guests but could she park to one side so I can fit my car next to hers. She looked at me with a blank expression, said no and shut the door on me! What do I do now!? I just stood there for a moment open mouthed and then went home.

Now I'm not sure if she has mobility problems as she's not exactly nimble anymore (about 65) but I am shocked at her one word reply!

OP fingers crossed she has learned her lesson and doesn't just move back to your spaces now she knows NAR isn't to be trifled with.

This is the best parking thread ever, wish we had photos Grin

So I get maximum enjoyment of the visual here, will someone confirm where she is parked? Is it in the middle of NAR's two spaces?

Jbck · 19/02/2015 20:27

Took so long to read thread I missed NAR update, fantastic!

WireCat · 19/02/2015 20:29

This is the best thread ever.

Well along with the elderly Korean lady thread.

PlumpingUpPartridge · 19/02/2015 20:30

This is the best comeuppance thread ever Grin

On a more serious note, I have been told to warn you op that this lady is clearly not that predictable in terms of social niceties and that she may well turn aggressive, so please be careful!

forago · 19/02/2015 20:32

I LOVE NAR!!!

Pleeease ask him to record the conversation tommorow ......

Nannyplum2015 · 19/02/2015 20:37

Excellent! I think NAR should set up a business for solving neighbour disputes!
Really hope parking cunt learns her lesson but I kind of think she won't, she'll just move on to someone else.
