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

Hilarious well done!
Yes to 'parking
Also like the idea of changing no to now as your finale when they think it's all over after Christmas.

Is the no parking sign to stop people parking in front of it or in the parking bay, does parking stop people getting in and out of the parking bays.

No parping auto correct and wear gloves finger prints and all that.

This is amazing, looking forward to tonight's installation!

This thread makes me so happy. Can you stick a Christmas tree on the top of santas car tonight? Maybe fashion a confused looking reindeer...

You could draw a tiny hopscotch game and put a tiny figured on it.

Then a turn it into a tiny disabled parking space complete with a little badge over the NO part on the sign.

Complete with Lego mobility scooter. 😁

Oops. Sorry about all the spelling mistakes.

BeautifulPossibilities · 21/12/2018 17:02

Parping obviously

Iamtheoneandonly2018 · 21/12/2018 17:23

Wow! At the Lego mobility scooter! Looking forward to the updates. Great thread!

Iamtheoneandonly2018 · 21/12/2018 17:24

What about an elf with a placard saying 'not all disabilities are visible'
Would love to see your neighbours reaction / be a fly on the wall!

Anniegetyourgun · 21/12/2018 17:25

I'm going to be a bit of a misery guts and suggest you don't escalate the sign decoration at this point. You got away with it free and clear first time, but every stealth outing increases the risk of discovery. Maybe others in the street will be inspired to follow the example, though, that would be excellent Smile

PositivelyPERF · 21/12/2018 17:31

If you’re amazed at that Iamtheoneandonly2018, they also do boy and girl characters in a wheelchair.

Or you can have these.

Not if she goes in disguise. Santa, the grinch, Santa dressed as the grinch, balaclava.

Bishops Move use to give away promotional miniature skips. How about a small row of them filled with pebbles and shreds of paper, make a sign saying building works in progress or similar

I like to think of all the neighbours sneaking out one by one on different nights to add to the festive No Parking display.

Bringing the whole community together in the spirit of Christmas except weird No Parking man .

CanuckBC · 21/12/2018 18:13

This is the best parking thread ever! Can’t wait to see tonight’s addition🎅🤶🎄

Jiminybikkit · 21/12/2018 18:35

Shamelessly placemarking

whatsleep · 21/12/2018 19:00

So what’s the plan for tonight? Grin

AnneTwackie · 21/12/2018 19:37

Waiting for fun police husband to go out, trying to behave normally- downing sherry, talking about socks- stealthily gathering supplies... I will break him and we will link and sing carols in the street Xmas Smile
