To decorate my neighbour’s new ‘no parking outside my door’ signs with a bit of tinsel?

The sign glows in the dark. It is rather large and looks awful.

Oh fab! Ha ha! I don't have any of this bollocks near me, mores the pity. All the houses in my cul de sac have sufficient driveway and no-one is a wanker.

I'd love to see the reaction this gets with NDN

Just so that we have the full information.

Your neighbour has their designated parking bays outside their house/flat, and have put a sign up to stop people parking there, and because you don't like the sign you are going to wind your neighbour up?

Or am I missing something?

Just back from pub ( I retired today ) and I am greeted with a parking thread ! Does life get much better?

Boney - Yes, you're missing something. The OP stated that the sign is indicating "no parking allowed" on a stretch of public road that's outside their neighbours' house, but that they have designated parking bays elsewhere, and no right to dictate who can/can't park on the road.

Oh the sheer glee and joy at this parking thread. Xmas Grin Please make a couple of fairy doors out of lollipop sticks or similar to put in front of the sign to represent the doors you can’t park in front of.

You should get a policeman puppet from Punch & Judy and lean it against the sign. Grin

The lack of diagram is more than compensated for by the photos!

I think you need to block the elf in with penguin bollards!
