Neighbours from hell...

    Need some advice. My crazy next door neighbours have kindly left their gorgeous white transit parked outside MY house. Didn't really mind at all for the first month, or two but now its getting on my t**s! Apparently it's broken but I'm sure if they let the handbrake off they could roll it over to their house. Don't wanna cause any drama but I'm starting to feel that if I don't say anything it's gonna become an even more permanent fixture. Any suggestions?

    Tell them you want it moved! It's their van so they should have it on their property.

    Put it on t'internet; 'Free to the first person that can tow it'.

    You've lost they keys, but they can have it for parts*










    *not really, this post does not advocate crime. I retract it all.

    I have a rather unusual idea

    Ask them to move it

    I believe the standard procedure is to let the license plates fall off (it's very windy right now!) and call the corpo to let them know an abandoned van has been parked in your drive.

    Advertise it for sale in the local rags, or sit in it for an hour when they are in the house, make a fun game out of it.......

    I'd b here all nite wit all the stories but mainly they're v noisy. Wen they're at home they're killing eachother, or the kids. When they leave the house, their alarm goes off til they get back... Sometimes for the whole wknd!

    If they've left it outside that long they could decide to just continue leaving it there which is obviously worrying to you..just say you have friends/relatives coming and want to let them park at your house ask if they need a hand pushing it over................ or alternatively you could get others to park outside theirs see if they realise they're taking up space you need so your family/friends have to resort to abandoning their vechicles outside the neighbours as a result.

    Do they not care or just not realise it's bothering you?

    They're taking the piss. Ask them to move it asap.

    Tried our own awkward parking but they didn't take the hint. Plus I'm a big believer in '2 wrongs don't make a right' so stopped after a couple of days.

    if its parked in a public place it requires the owners to tax it, talk nice to your local choclate soldier.

    They know it's a pain which is y they've abandoned it outside my house instead of their own! Tbh I do hav visitors coming in a couple of weeks which is y I need this resolved. Maybe I'll just tell them that.

    My neighbours used to do that. Its stopped soon after I got a ladder and pair of wire snips. They called the garda station and reported me for criminal damage, but they didn't seem that interested in investigating considering the amount of phone calls they had received about the alarm.
