They party Hardy on your Laurel?

Neighbours who park in our parking space. And when you ask them very politely to move, refuse because they think it's communal. This woman is so determinedly stupid that even the production of the photocopy of the deeds with the boundaries of our property clearly outlined in red showing that the parking space is ours only met with "our deeds are different". It doesn't matter what your deeds say. They relate to a different piece of land!
Quietly sobbing Riley is going for a little lie down. Later Riley will phone the tame solicitor and get him to write a gentle letter explaining the law of trespass for dummies.

Won't that incur an expense? Surely it's cheaper to pay the local thugs to trash the neighbour's car?

No. The lawyer is a mate and will knock something up on headed notepaper for a bottle of red. Can't go down the thug route as this is a terribly genteel area - and our cars are parked on the drive so equally available to said thugs.

...perhaps I should have added a ;)

I've sent round Spouse. Everyone take cover!

Tee hee! It's us women that sort things out.

No. Spouse has returned beaten by the stupidity. This woman has got it fixed in her head that because the developer said that there were parking spaces marked on the plans then this is one of them. The developers could have put mermaids and unicorns on the plans. Itvwouldn't have any legal effect. I think I may have a chat with the lawyer as ths could blow into something nasty because she won't back down.

God, how irritating!
I'm annoyed and it's not even my parking space.

I'm going to be annoying and say how thankful I am that I've got off-street parking. But I am in the suburbs, so I'm practically a yokel.

Oh this would just enrage the crap out of me. To the point of eruption. Destroy her. Destroy her. Detroy her.

TTPYO: Everyone who rode the Tube today, all of them, every man / woman jack of them. They should all die - but not on the Tube, as that would cause delays.

Why can't people respect my personal 'bubble'? What is it about boudaries that is so difficult to understand? All you have to do is stand a few inches away and not look at me, is that so difficult.

We're hitting tourist season and my local station Victoria is fast becoming a living hell. Unless someone offers to ferry me around in an Olympic Limo, I ain't going nowheres.

Oooo arrr.

This is in addition to the drive! We did pay extra for the land and I' m. Bit put out that she thinks she has a right to trespass when ever she feels like it.
The bigger problem is that it's a cul de sac and tends to become a bit of a car park anyway. We try not to use the space during the day in case the people next to us have deliveries or it's bin day. But what has wound me up is that the car has been parked there since this afternoon and will doubtless be there all tomorrow as the husband is out drinking tonight and probably won't have time to shift it in the morning.

Must say I'm tempted tomorrow when I go out rather than struggle with getting round it (it's a large Volvo 4x4) I'll just leave my car on their drive as I have things to do. ;)
