    Ha - the old guy opposite me!

    I am parking my Alfa outside my OWN house. The old guy opposite just been beating down my door getting very animated complaining that this is blocking him from leaving his house for hospital appointments. I think that the Italian loon with all of his cars and vans in the street is getting to him as they are living next door to each other.

    There is something about seeing an old guy going ballistic - I was worried that he was going to die on the spot!

    I did move it up another 4 foot, but, even that has not appeased him. He can swing his car out to the left, or the right, and, insists on swinging only one way when he can swing both ways.

    Maybe a bit of swinging may be just what he needs!

        Maybe you should have peed on his shoes?

          Wilmslow, any time I ask for details about all this you ignore the question. I have therefore concluded you are a Walter Mitty character, if indeed you exist at all. What happened to that other car you claimed to have bought specifically to annoy your neighbours?

            Hang on, if you moved, does that mean he was being blocked ?

                I wish you luck - he never answers any questions I ask about his arrant nonsense postings.

                    No, he was not blocked at all. I have a van parked on the road opposite my house, giving me the same access. He can reverse out to the left with complete ease, and, also swing out to the right, although a little more tight. He just wants the entire road around his house to be 100% clear which ain't going to happen as his neighbour has 3 cars and vans and only one parking space!

                    Me - I either have a van outside my house, or my Alfa. I know what I would rather look at. The old guy is not twigging that if I am not there, somebody else will be, and dealing with it very badly.
