My first parking thread!

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?

SoupDragon · 15/06/2018 20:26

DH said, very deadpan, "I suggest you don't park in people's drive ways in future. We'll move the car tomorrow at 10"

He’s redeemed himself from his earlier suggestion that you move the car!

Nanasueathome · 15/06/2018 20:26

Oh, that update is wonderful

LadyChatterlysLoofah · 15/06/2018 20:26

Did they not apologise at ALL?? Shock Well done, OP.

jpclarke · 15/06/2018 20:26

That is unbelievable, they see no wrong in what they have done. You are dead right to leave them waiting.

TimeIhadaNameChange · 15/06/2018 20:26

Ok, your DP is forgiven.

Well played, the both of you!

May I suggest inviting your neighbour in for a drink? She deserves it!

DianaPrincessOfThemyscira · 15/06/2018 20:26

Oh you absolute CAHHHH posting that then not updating! Grin

Nanasueathome · 15/06/2018 20:27

You need to let your neighbour know what’s going on too so that she does not make any mistakes..

crimsonlake · 15/06/2018 20:27

Marvellous!!
