It does sit in front of my garage
so if i replace this with a gazeebo or garage tent do you think i will be able to get rid of them ?
What a load of crap. That looks bloody awful. Is that wood even treated? I hope it isn't still standing when a gale comes, incase it collapses on your car. Then you'll really regret this folly. Have you not even considered your neighbours? How would you feel if they dumped a smelly caravan on their drive and you had to look at it every day?so if i replace this with a gazeebo or garage tent do you think i will be able to get rid of them ?
Black pickup. Check!
Council dog. Check!
Security lights, that probably annoy the neighbours too. Check!
Those type of people don't consider anyone.

Few observations.
This thread is superb, but
1) Lordbenny, I'm with gaz1234 - How is that possible given what we know....?! Brilliant detective work.
2) Love your comments, mp3manager - 'council dog'...I'm still laughing
3) I go with PositronicRay - I think the dog is looking at the neighbours who are pointing at the carport AGAIN
4) I love the car - I very nearly 'pulled the trigger' on getting one a while back - in that colour, too
P/heads at its best....

Although it's not particularly pleasing to the eye I really don't see what the problem is , it is after all situated on the OP's property and the council and his neighbours should mind their own business.
Er, the control of development, including unauthorised development like this, IS the Council's business, it's a statutory duty vested in them. As for the neighbours, they have a right to comment if they feel the structure is affecting their amenity.Escort3500 said:

garage 2260mm wide car 1943mm wide id have to drive in with roof down and climb out ! recipe for disaster the way i reverse.
Right, so you have 150+ mm a side. Park close to the left wall, put carpet on the right hand wall so you don't damage your door and stop being a retard.Unless you're very fat of course.
In fact, even better. Screw some chocks to the floor, push car into garage, chocks behind rear wheels. Problem solved.
