Sorry guys but I need to Vent some anger here.
I live in a cul de sac and the road is quite narrow, so parking is always a problem. Anyway went out in the car to pick Lily up from nursery this morning and there was a car parked further up the street, now as our street is very narrow most people park partly on the path and the road, but this morning there was this car which I've never seen before parked fully on the road. When I came back with Lily the D*CK, who lives across the road from where this car was parked decided to park his mondeo alongside it on the opposite side of the road leaving a very narrow gap, granted he parked part road and part path but still blocked the road so no-one could get up or down the street. So as I approached realised I wasn't going to get through I beeped my horn, the owner of either didn't come out so I sat with my hand on the horn for about 3 minutes solid and guess what still no-one came out . Not knowing which house the other car belonged to I knocked on the door of the guy with the Mondeo, ( to me it was him that was in the wrong as he parked after the other one) any he didn't open the door . So in the end I jusked parked up and had to walk the rest of the way down to my house.
I was watching out of the window most of the time and one of my neighbours had problems getting out of the street, he also knocked on the guys door but he still didn't come out so we were still standing chatting about 10 mins later and the bloke who owns the mondeo came out my neighbour asked him to move his car and he started saying that he didn't know who the other car belonged to but it was them that was in the wrong as he was parked fully on the road, so I corrected him and said he parked alongside it so it was HIM to blame. Well he came out with "I live here I have every right to park outside my own front door". Well it was like a red rag to a bull to me, I went ballistic ar*ehole blocked the whole street so he could park outside HIS front door and us who live at the bottom of the cul de sac couldn't get in or out of the street or park on our own driveways. I shouted that much I've hurt my throat and I'm shaking like a leaf. My other neighbour just stood there don't think he could believe what was coming out my mouth, we've lived here nearly 14 years and no-one has heard me shout like that.
I'm so MAD he was in the house all the time must've heard the horn and us knocking on the door but wouldn't come out and move his car . Anyway he moved it eventually so the street is clear once again. My hubby says he's gonna let his tyres down later.
Sorry for the rant but I do feel better I've got that off my chest.
Hope it makes sense, reading it back I seem to have rambled a bit.
