My first parking thread!

[SharronNeedles]

So, I'm off work on annual leave with DS. Just been out for the day and just got home to find that it's school run time. We live near a first school so obviously the streets are lined with cars. Someone has parked on my drive and someone else is blocking them in!
Now I imagine that as no one is ever here during the day, these people have been doing this for some time (we've only lived here 3 months and the house was emtpy for a year before that). I've squeezed in beside the car blocking the drive so they won't be able to get our (remember the scene from Friends with Ross's sports car?) and therefore the car on my drive can't escape either.
AIBU to just sit here with a cuppa and watch this all play out while pretending not to be in?

My God, I am enjoying this thread.

I think I had a mini orgasm 😮 when OP said she wouldn’t be intimidated!
But I deffo had one when she said she lived in the north east!
Sharron - I think you a bloody super- ive been sniggering muchly at the thought of you hiding in your sons bedroom listening!
I personally wouldn’t move the car and on behalf of women I beg you not to move it unless you want to - you don’t HAVE to move it just because your DH says..........

I wouldn't move my car. All weekend. And I'd be phoning police to report that someone has parked on my drive - and another car is parked across the back of it.

1. Thank you OP for such a fun thread

2. I want your neighbour to be my neighbour. She is awesome.

3. Hope you are enjoying a nice glass of wine ( or two!)

Love this! No way should you move your car until you’ve made them grovel!

Placemarking! Hurrah for op and neighbour!! 😁

This thread is joyous and has really made my day

Can you please swap your and your neighbours car and when they come back and point it out make out that they are crazy. Please. That would make me so happy.

This is spectacular. Hopefully as it's over the weekend you can go out in DH's car over the weekend then drive your car to work as normal on Monday. Obviously your neighbour got the days mixed up and she meant you'd nipped away for a couple of days not weeks.

But hey don't block that drive again!!!

Oh and your neighbour is a great sport by the way!!

Hoping Carzilla doesn't know any rugby players.....

I'm so invested in this Thread

Well, in about 45 minutes I will be opening the wine so they have 45 mins to get here, get our attention (bath night for DS and that is a noisy affair) if they expect me to move my car tonight.

Good for you OP.

Really all it takes is a knock at the door and a heartfelt apology!!

I'm pretty sure they are learning a valuable lesson.
Has your DH chilled and realised that they are actually CFs?

I LOVE the campervan covered in post it notes and am imagining using a 'YOU PARK LIKE A CUNT' stamp on each one all over 2 cars

DO
NOT
MOVE

How hard would it be to find out who the CF in the drive is and where they stay? Move your car to their drive, I mean there must be space

I can't believe the cheek of the letter that they posted in your door when they are clearly wrong.

Banana in each exhaust....

Placemarkinf for updates

Snap and Fart.....OMG...I'm dying & placemarking :) MN no1fan :)

How’s the wine going down OP? I’m drinking in solidarity! There are Facebook pages for most areas called ‘parking like a twat in .......’. You must find your local one. I can’t wait to hear the outcome! Awful day exam marking topped off with a parking thread! Hooray for mumsnet and twatty Parking!

DHs are the worst, they always want to sort things out. Fuckers.

grumble

I wonder if they've gone to get a rugby team to lift the cars out.

Such a good thread!

Hope you are enjoying that

This is pure genius 😁
