You do NOT own the parking space outside your residence.

To be honest, i do understand where the OP is coming from. Although, some of the replies, the interpreted mindset and the threat at the end of the first post from said person is questionable to say the least.
Saying that, having lived at my previous flat, i can certainly sympathise. I actually made a post about the local residents "reserving" their spaces with the use of cones, which was obviously annoying. The general consensus, all joking aside, is to just get on with it. Everyone's in the same boat essentially in that situation.
Luckily, i'm glad to be away from that now, having moved to a different flat with my own, numbered parking space. It's brought it's own problems but, generally, it's been plain-sailing in comparison.

Out of interest, if you can't get a permit where should you park?
I was looking at moving to London, specifically renting in Strata SE1. Southwark won't allow people to get a permit to park and there is no parking in the buildings carpark unless you own an apartment, not for leasers.
So if that fits you, where to park exactly?

How do you know Southwark won't issue one? I was looking at moving to London, specifically renting in Strata SE1. Southwark won't allow people to get a permit to park and there is no parking in the buildings carpark unless you own an apartment, not for leasers.

I'm guessing there will be people with flats/houses but without a car who you could rent a parking space from. Or a season ticket from nearest car park.I was looking at moving to London, specifically renting in Strata SE1.

OK I guess you guys all want an update? Well I suspect one of the residents deflated my offside front tire to circa 19 bar so i had to attend the Sainsbury gas station to inflate it back to the recommended maximum of 50 bar with free air. Quite disappointed with this desu but at least they didn't key my shed or slash the tires.
For the record I will not be constructing any more skyscrapers as the money's not worth my troubles. Don't bother with civil engineering kids.

19 bar is quite a lot for a car tyre. 50 bar would be like concrete with added granite. I'm impressed you found a compressor with that sort of output. You could use that sort of pressure to launch into space. For the record I will not be constructing any more skyscrapers as the money's not worth my troubles.

50 bar? A ~700psi tyre? Surely as a fellow engineer you understand how insanely high that is for a flexible rubber pressure vessel, what are you driving? A piece of quarry machinery?

That point asides who deflates a tyre part way down?

Does 50 PSI sound reasonsable? Not bothered either way. I'm an ex-engineer thicky! You current serving engineers are welcome to your pleb pay. ![biggrin](/inc/images/biggrin.gif)

Aye 50psi sounds on the upper end of 'normal' for a car tyre. I'm still a technician/B-eng student actually, should be graduating in 2019. Yet even on my minimum wage +50p part time rate I can feed and home myself so I think I'm going to excel on a nice full time salary of 'pleb pay'. Provided I set yourself as the standard. ![biggrin](/inc/images/biggrin.gif)
