Got a message on me car windscreen today from a neighbour who said 'Your car is parked on my land and is blocking access to my garage. In future can you not park so access is restricted'. Thing is i parked, a bit further along from the place that i usually park cos some numpty had parked where i always do. Plus the car park is communal for the residents of the houses around so it's technically not his land, unless he owns the entire car park. I moved my car so he could get his ridiculously wide Lotus out of the garage. Haven't seen him, and he doesnt know that i am the owner of the car. I thought his message was quite rude, there is a politer way to ask for a favour. Should i ignore it or write something witty back in response. Answers and suggestions on a postcard please!! (furious)
Not worth getting upset about My nieghbours complained about the colour I painted my fence. The thing is, it's my fence and I can paint any colour I like. I got really wound up for a few weeks and then though **** em they aren't worth it. If you think this guy has been rude and you're absolutely sure there's nothing legal that puts you in the wrong, ignore the note. Maybe he'll learn to write more polite notes. You could always politely ask him to 'learn some f@ckin manners'
mine told me off for parking my firms van in the street in front of his house so now i park it in front of mine and the way our houses are situated i cant see it and it blocks is view.m mind you this is a silly old Barsteward who once said to me when my kids where little " i know they are only kids and should be allowed to play for 10 minutes but tell em to be quiet" i told him to f*** off as he as had his childhood so dont try and stop my kids from having theirs.
RE: What is so wrong with that note? what you mean him saying kids should be allowed to play for 10 minutes??
We had something similar recently Staying at my uncles' whilst working, and his next door neighbour was celebrating his 51st or 52nd birthday. They don't get on with each other due to a few differences in the past. He put a note through the door saying "please keep the dogs inside tomorrow afternoon between 3pm and 6pm as I am having a party and do not want to upset the dogs" Fair enough you can't keep dogs inside for 3 hours, they need to go outside for their business, etc. The note was polite, and just a simple request to keep the dogs happy, and to warn them there will be loud music, etc. Like at most parties. So, my uncle decided to go round and batter the ***** out of him because of this note...which in my eyes was pretty reasonable. Personally, I'd let the note go in question, and the one in my post. Nothing to get worked up about. The same neighbour actually hit my uncle in the face with a hammer a few months back. My uncle was putting a higher fence up so the dogs couldn't jump it, and obviously get out of the garden. After my uncle had built it, his neighbour came out with a hammer and started ripping it down saying it was too high, so obviously a bit of a scrap started out, and he hit my uncle in the face with the hammer...so my uncle turned round and thumped him to the floor...my uncle got done with assault whilst his neighbour got away with it. Madness...can't see why neighbours can't just get on!!
I've got a problem with works vans being parked in the street, it's not an industrial estate. One of them is a bloody council van and they've a fecking great big depot down Smithies!
RE: What is so wrong with that note? Eh? Only just realised what you are talking about when I read further down....look at the indentations on the thread - will give you an idea who people are replying to
RE: What is so wrong with that note? It lacks the word please. Fair enough if it really was his land he can be direct as he likes, but the bloke says it's a communal land, so if that's the case please and thank you are the order of the day. As I said, it ain't worth getting wound up about but, I'm guessing the note writer will get arsey if it happens again. If he'd taken the time to be a bit less direct from the start, none of us would be talking about it
