Idiots who leave messages on windscreens

This was my initial reaction, I was thinking there must be a better way than parking across both but without knowing what it's like there it's hard to judge.

For example, is there no way you could let someone park there on the agreement that they move when you need to get two cars in?

Not if I don't know anyone in the area really no :)
 
I'm with Eulogy. It's his property - he can do as he likes.

Now if it was on-street parking then that would be a different matter...

I'm sick to the back teeth of eejits refusing to pay for parking and blocking access to my garage while waiting for people visiting the local job centre. I also doubt most of the cars have valid insurance, tax or MOT.
 
You are technically in the right, they are your spaces to do with as you please, but why not just be nice to your neighbours? and let them borrow your empty space while you don't need it.

If it becomes a problem or you need the space back politely ask them to move.

One day you might need to ask something from them, and they will be more inclined to give if they don't see you as being selfish.

As stated I don't know them, so unless I want to go around asking people if they need a parking space, i'm not really able to do this!
 
Idiots who make stupid threads, more like. I mean, come on. You actually are so bothered by a note by some random that you've spent your time trying to find supporters to your view on this event. Someone probably thought you were crap at parking, or found it amusing and left a sarcastic note.

In other words, why do you care so much?
 
Lived in a house with 2 allocated spaces for 4 years and I'm with Eulogy all the way.

I tried the unselfish approach and let neighbors use one of them but people just started royally taking the ****, seriously you give them an inch etc etc. It went from people being right arses when you ask them to move because you have visitors, cars being parked there seemingly 24/7, others parking god damn massive camper vans in it so I could barley fit my car in, and then people stealing both spaces as they can't seem to remember what my car looks like. Then I'm sure more of the close started to think it was a visitor bay and it turned into a massive free for all.

In the end I just took to parking in the middle of both spaces as I couldn't be doing with it anymore. But, if someone came and asked me to use one for a few days as they had visitors that was fine.

No. Are you serious? I meant 'please can I park in your space good sir'.

My neighbours ask that to each other all the time. E.g. 'My mother is visiting for the weekend, can I park my second car on your driveway?', 'Sure, no problem'.

Without permission = no deal.

Edit - you posted the same again with a wink, so either you realised you were being a retard or you were joking first time round also :p.
 
Personally, I'd say it's down to who is parking there.
If it's an area where you've got randoms using it as a place to park so they can go elsewhere, or avoid paying to park somewhere nearby, then I can see why you would get annoyed.

However, if it's one of your neighbors that has done it and you aren't really ever using both spaces, it's a bit petty. Say for example, your neighbor has a friend over or such and they need somewhere to park, then they can use your space as it's not being used. Like wise, if you ever had people over and needed three parking spaces you could just ask your neighbors if it was alright to use their spaces for a bit.

When you do stuff like park over both spaces, you've blown any chance of doing anything such as that.

If his neighbours want the space they can knock and ask can't they?


How are his neghbours to know there's only 1 car?

Jusrt because there's an empty space it could mean the toher guy is in work, I'd be a bit annoyed if my neighbours parked in my space whenever it didn't have a car in, would mean you'd have to park up elsewhere then track down whoever owns the car (hard if you don't know neighbours) and ask them to mvoe it.

I beg to differ if you have allocated spots you need to nip it in the bud straight away or stop it from happening in the first place. Otherwise they park there when you only have one car, and then carry on parking there when you have two.

I agree with this.
People take without asking and then suddenly expect.
None of his business how you park, clearly you hit a nerve parking that way.
 
The same happened to me in our under ground car pack. Funny thing is its a private car park for the owners of the flat and each space is owned by someone.

After paying over 25k for a couple of parking spaces I will take a dump on my parking spaces if I want

Think it was a woman because of the handwriting/the exclamation mark at the end had a circle instead of a dot. Probably she had a lot of those kinds of messages herself about her parking and thought she was being clever!
 
Well some people here sure are pretty dumb when it comes to reading an Op and then following a logical thought process before replying!

Haha, I love you Tefal. :D

I'm slightly worried that you either a) remembered it or b) bothered to look it up. :P
