It’s a parking one!

[OhCaptain]

Get on fine with house next door. Kids play etc.

About a year ago, her sister started coming to visit every single day. Weekends too. Fine. None of my business.

So we both have double drives and both have two cars. DH also has a motorbike but there’s space to keep it on our drive.

I work from home so I’m out to drop the dc to school then pretty much back for the whole morning. DH is gone in his car from maybe 7am. Motorbike stays on drive until weekends really.

So next door’s sister has a big 7-seater. But she’s taken to partially blocking our drive with it so next door’s car can get in and out.

So she parks up in the morning, partially blocks my drive. And then sometimes they’ll head out in next door’s car and my drive will be blocked.

I can (with ball-achey manoeuvring) get my car on. But if anyone was to visit, or DH was to come home, they couldn’t park on the drive. And they can’t park in front of my house without then blocking other next door’s.

It gives me the fucking rage! It’s so inconsiderate! I’ve said it to next door’s and her answer has been to knock in if I ever need her to move.

DH is so laid back he’s horizontal so he doesn’t see it as a big deal. But it’s just so selfish and irritating.

I’ve come back and parked up right behind her, as in touching the bumper, so I haven’t blocked other next door’s.

WIBU to roll the motorbike out and block her car?? If I put it sideways it won’t block the drive I don’t think.

I hope I’m explaining properly. I need to try to figure out how to post a diagram!

@Highonpotandused is it perhaps that there was not enough to munch on in this thread? try a twix. It may cheer you up.

Well done, @OhCaptain. You are my kind of woman. I aspire to be more like you.

Brilliant just read the whole thing. Team Captain & Olaf ftw.

Tremendous work OhCaptain. Ingenuity with a perfect ratio of childishness. I salute you! (And am bookmarking ready for 9am....)

Q

Phenomenal 🎉

I meant to have an early night.

Then I discovered this thread.

Damn you OP

🤣🤣🤣

Hi-vis Olaf (HOPS - head of parking security) and trusty sidekick Dino (DICOSBF - deputy in charge of soggy bin forts) should not become complacent. I fear this is far from over and that Bull will not give up that easily. NN is a twonk of the highest order for allowing Bull to create neighbourly chaos and for bowing to the (supposed) superiority of the problem solving penis

DICOSBF - deputy in charge of soggy bin forts

I read this as "soggy bin farts".

What an excellent update and congratulations on making Classics!

I do believe you should leave the bins in situ for the rest of the week though.

@BruceAndNosh
Thank you - just sent that to my 23yo ds who's contemplating buying a car. One of the most traumatic days of his life was trying to climb into such a car and being too big.

Sorry to be a party pooper, but I don't get the fuss about this thread and I don't think it's a classic

Sorry to keep you waiting. This thread is really busy at the moment. Your opinion really matters to us. Sorry to keep you waiting.

dodgy on-hold music

I have just discovered this thread from the breadbin and cake one and I have to say I have been thoroughly entertained on my commute in this morning.
OhCaptain my captain... you’re bloody brilliant!

Sorry to be a party pooper, but I don't get the fuss about this thread and I don't think it's a classic.

You don’t drive a giant 7 seater and park outside peoples houses do you?!

I’m kidding! I don’t think I’m all that funny either. Just very petty and immature!

So OP, what's the plan for today?
Leave the space in front of your drive empty and DARE her to park there? (with Garda Olaf glowering from the front window?)

Have pulled in at Costa just so I can update! *can you be over invested in your own thread?

So, the soggy bin fort was retired sadly.

And I did take Sgt Olaf and Garda Dino off duty.

However, I did leave them both hanging out the top window I hope they haven’t plummeted to their death but if they have, they’ll get a state funeral with all pomp and circumstance for dying in the line of duty.

I did try to tie a cucumber penis to Sgt Olaf’s arm. I envisioned an angry and intimidating member thrust proudly toward the skies, ready to unleash hell and send Raging Bull back to the hell from whence she came.

Sadly, his little twiglet arm couldn’t hold the weight and it just sort of desolately flopped southwards.

Not the message I was sending.

Will 100% freeze my ass off with the windows open. However, tomorrow is bin day so this is only really necessary for today.

I don’t think she’ll have the balls to block my drive today! If she does I am definitely going to police tape her car. That’s an absolutely certainty.

Op, I aspire to be you!
My NDN told me not to throw bread to the birds cause I’d bring rats to his home and I backed down without a shred of backbone..
I might need a cucumber penis to thrust his way next time we bump heads 😂

@pawpatrol cut the bread into tiny penis shapes and go for it!

Full disclosure: the cucumber penis was just a cucumber. I just didn’t have time to include an angry purple tip!

Bull is blocking neighbour’s drive!!!

I do believe I’ve won. Also that I have hypothermia. Am confident that I can close the windows now.

Just checking in to see if OP is home from school run yet.

Thrilled that the Dynamic Duo are still on duty from the window, I felt they were retired a little early. Bulls can be unpredictable.

OMG OP! You won!!! (Tell the boys not to remove their hi-vis yet, it’s only Day One...)

She’s won. She’s won! And without need for a Mighty penis! Although I’m disappointed no female equivalent has been suggested. POV - power of the vag maybe??

In fairness I do think the power of my vag compelled PSP to crawl back under his 1950s rock.

Does that count?!

Pics of the fort or it didn’t happen. And don’t plead privacy - I think the Olaf has put paid to that

But the fort has disintegrated into a soggy mess! I can’t photograph it now

I can post a photo of wet cardboard if that helps!

Harumpf. A few of us asked you for photos at the time.

I did explain that my bin has distinctive stickers and I couldn’t get the angle right to take in the gloriousness of Garda Olaf AND the fort without getting identifiable stuff in.

I figured Garda Olaf was the important bit. You have my sincere apologies!
