    I hear ya mate , its a mad situation , I think we will just need to have a chat with him and sort it out
    Thanks for the advice , i appreciate it

    He's doing nothing wrong so I'd be very careful about having too many chats.

    Where I live the parking disc is specific to a road (Harolds cross in dublin). So I can't park 30m from my house on a side road. The disc has the road name printed on it.
    But there could be different schemes in different parts of the country.
    Funny thing is, even with disc parking people tend to park in the same spot so the ownership thing is still there 😂

    With all due respect you aren't coming across like that's what is going to happen. You have said one bully boy has almost come to blows with him. By all means have a conversation but he's in the right and if you persist in approaching him the Guards will warn you for harassment.

    A bully boy approached him??
    The person who knocked on his door asked him why he had his two vehicles parked outside his house and had a further two outside his house
    I guess its common courtesy and abit of respect
    Maybe I have different morals and ideals, were all different
    I have no intention of harrassing noone , im a successful business person and dont have the time or interest

    It's nobody's business where he parks his vehicles on a public road.

    Im not too sure about that being honest , talking to few sources I beg to differ, considering he has 4 vehicles
    Il let you know the outcome!

    True but would they give one resident 4 permits?
    And anyway it's a country town, so not likely to be disc parking...

    If your a successful business person then you have a solicitor. Talk to him or her.
    They will tell you exactly what you've been told here but you might actually believe them instead of getting snotty.
    Just cos you don't agree with what a poster says, it doesn't mean their wrong!

    Are they taxed? Is he parking in a public space and not breaking any law? What's the issue here.
    Sounds like you need to understand that the roads do not belong to you. OP wheter you mean it or not there is a sense of entitlement off you.

    I'd call up to him, tell him thats "your"* spot, youve parked there 25years, you really need it as you've a gammy hip, and have trouble walking far or some sh1t3.

    He might be reasonable.
    Banging on doors at 11pm is a last resort, and is only going to get worse.


    *Which it isnt. Youve zero entitlement to it. Its your neighbours good grace, that its always free.
