I know I'm not being unreasonable about this parking!!! (with diagram)

But I thought I'd share anyway.

This happens on our street a LOT and I just don't understand how people can be so inconsiderate, the gap between the wing mirror and wall isn't big enough for a child to slip through and the car is so huge it blocks pedestrians from seeing whats coming without stepping into the road.
Not to mention that he's parked on a T-junction.

GRR!

There MUST be a Mumsnetter close to OP who can go and take over surveillance?! I need to find out what happens here!

DH has agreed to go to the later showing at the cinema so I don’t need to LTB !

Can you get your friend to video if you have to leave? Can someone else pick up prescription for you?

bummymummy77 · 13/01/2018 15:35

Excellent work OP. Placemarking for tow truck update.

minesapintofwine · 13/01/2018 15:37

Op you are my hero Star

Nottheduchessofcambridge · 13/01/2018 15:40

Wow, I am well impressed at the police timing, I’m moving near you! This whole thread has been very satisfying, from the excellent 5* diagram, photo evidence, to the police arrival and updates. You should be awarded a Top Mumsnetter award.

My amazing Mother has come to the rescue and is picking up prescription for me. I told her the reason why and she fully understood! Grin

Re your prescription... can you walk there? Thereby engaging police in long conversation about missing driver. What a shame they're both female, let's hope they have to call for reinforcements when handsome police officer will turn up undoubtedly..

bummymummy77 · 13/01/2018 15:41

Wtf? Last time I posted a bunch of snow pictures (last week) it wouldn't let me do more than 6! Am I a demoted member or something?! AngryEnvy

Ooogetyooo · 13/01/2018 15:41

Your mother clearly understands what is important here.

Roussette · 13/01/2018 15:42

Your Mother is a class act!

bummymummy77 · 13/01/2018 15:42

And now there's a helpful relative. Maybe she has some kind of drink recipe for us. (Like sangria/ span gran.)

TheSassyAssassin · 13/01/2018 15:42

Yay well done Unsuspected's lovely DM Star

TheMaddHugger · 13/01/2018 15:42

Waves Hi and Thanks to OP's Mum 🌸💙🌺💚🌸💛🌷💜

Roussette · 13/01/2018 15:42

I'm up to 30 a day

MadMags · 13/01/2018 15:43

When your legendary mother comes with the prescription you must meet her outside (she can come in later, don't worry) so you can get a proper look!

And make sure you look ravishing in case CF is actual Colin Firth-y.

brizzledrizzle · 13/01/2018 15:44

When you are securing your fence be sure not to drop any large nails.

Errrmmmm.... Colin Firth would not let his car tax lapse, absolutely not

CaveMum · 13/01/2018 15:44

Shameless placemark.

Keep going OP, DS (9 months) is napping and DD (4) is watching crap on Netflix, so I’ve plenty of time Grin

LakieLady · 13/01/2018 15:45

short of going outside and gawping or scaling the house and ninja-ing over the roof, I can't get a better view.

Bah, where's your commitment, OP? Slip into your Spiderwoman suit and get scaling!
