Park the scoob on the waste ground with a sticker saying "Police Aware". :D I wish we could just put the van there. The space is wasted as it is. :brickwall |

If its the van they object to, surely for a quiet life you can park it outside your house and have the Scoob in front of their house?
Edit: the sane person that's got hold of F1 Fans login tonight beat me to it. ;) These people are not normal! |

These people are not normal! You park the Subaru where the van is (i.e. outside their house but a smaller visual obstruction) and Micky's big ass van outside your gaff. Then if the neighbours wants to complain, who do they do it too? Can't complain if the van isn't there, free right to park cars anywhere where there is no restriction. I'd do the above and then if they complain about the Subaru, pass them a Yellow Pages and tell them to find someone who gives a toss :thumb: |

In the neighbours defence It bugs the pants out of me when the neighbour parks their car right outside my house. Yes I have a drive but it means visitors have to park down the road and my neighbour has 3 cars.
Sadly there is nothing I can do about it so I live with it. Pm me you van details and I'll send yur managing director a very polite letter saying how you took a minute to help my elderly mother when she fell over... ;) Yours,your wifes and fayes. |

They have lived there for around 20 years, it's council btw. In that time, neither of them have worked a single day. If anything, they should be grateful to us workers for the fact, we have in part paid for them to do the grand sum of **** all for all that time. :thumb: |
Emmaroids. I had 2 cars, the carisma is now gone and the work car is on the drive every night. We are currently requesting the council to move the light from outside my house so we can make our drive twice as wide .. Stops people parking outside the house some what, and visitors can parkon the drive :) - around here the streets are very congested with parked cars.

Well I knew Mickys' parking was 5hite but I didn't realise Micky and Lisa were an item. Dumb as f*ck me :D

Have to say if i had a van parked outside my house like that every night i wouldn;t be very happy.
As sugested above i'd switch the van in front of yours and scoob behind. It removed the work's van element so they can only complain to you direct, not your work. Also reduces the visual impact of the view from the property, shift them both up as much as possible and then if worst comes to the worst you can demonstrait you have tried to accomodate them. The risk is they go to the council and the council put a disabled space there so you will be shafted. |

The neighbour (the house the van is outside of) was the person to complain. Well, he says it was his daughter, as I have found out since Micky posted this thread. To make things clearer for you, as you won't have known, Micky is my partner.

These people are not normal! Or another option Lisa, seen as you are very good with your words and manor of speaking, surely you can come to a compromise with them if anything:thumb: |
We had a similar problem with some of our neighbours a few years ago. They used to complain about us parking in front of their property because of access but none of them even had a car. The truth was they were just nosey barstewards and when someone parked outside their house it restricted their ability to snoop on the rest of the street.
|
Good job they don't live in London, where my mate lives you are lucky to be able to park in the same feckin street, let alone outside your house, many a time had to park 3 streets away & schlep it round the corner!
There is no right to be able to park 'your' car outside 'your' house..... it simply doesnt exist. yes they may not be happy, but there is sweet FA they can do about it. Life sucks at times, deal with it or move - simples. |
Park the van outside your own house. It would piss me off too. Why park it outside there house. Move ya scooby outside there house and you look at the horrible green a yellow ?
|
Have you not considered knocking your wall down and having off road parking? you could then park the car off road and have the van on the road outside the house blocking the car in for security :)
Neighbour sounds to be jelous of you for having a car and van when he has neither? |

I reckon the problem is more a big van being parked outside the house,just swap the vehicles around and see if it helps.

Some interesting, and fair points I suppose. Quite a bit of taking the piss out of my parking though. I'm sure pedestrians round here prefer my parking to his daughters that visits sporadically;

Micky neighbourly disputes are best resolved mate. Much as you may not like them and wish to avoid them it will only exacerbate things. Have a polite word with them and see if you can find some middle ground. Life's too short to be fratching with someone next door to you.

I can only agree there, nice friendly chat, cuppa tea etc and come to a resolution,as it can go on for years or till you/they move.
Someone asked, why don't I not take the van home and use the car to go to work? Why the hell should I? Taking the van home is the only perk we get at work. In fact new starters have different contract's stating that they can't, I believe. Besides, if I was to do that, want to take a guess at the next complaint? Don't think they, or any of our other neighbours would take to kindly to me starting the car just after 6am everyday. |

So why don't you park the van outside your house?

If that's the case then mate take all your photos and evidence to your boss at work and get them to forward the info to the mds, there's not much more you can do fella, think your neighbours are just being sad tw@ts

She's seen the photo in the OP, and used Google Street View to make her decision, which I assume will be relay back to who ever is dealing with the complaint at head office. |
Don't worry about it then fella, it's just sad when people do this to each other. (get a life)

I still say put a brick through their window..

Why would you want that outside your own house when you can p!ss off the neighbours? :cuckoo: Jesus. Just park the van outside your own house and see how they feel. It's not rocket surgery. I think your neighbours must be well fed up. If it was me you'd be coming out to a flat tyre every morning. You'd move it then. |
