Car being deliberately blocked in when parked on a road

I can see this escalating to vandalism.

Not from me it won't.

I would have just parked outside your own drive in the same fashion as the white suzuki van has done on the grass further up as this is less likely to cause complaint if you are off the path and the main road, if your folks want to get out of your drive you just move your car.

To be fair though you do have a lot of cars, plus expect guests to be able to park, if everyone down your street had four cars and expected guests to park on the road it would be chaos, the same sort of chaos as we have around some of our back roads. Personally I don't like people parking near junctions (or on the road if it can be helped) as even when the junction is clear you never know when you'll be half way through overtaking the parked car/s when another driver is entering the junction at pace.

I do sometimes park outside on the grass but that time there was another car there.

It's even more of a problem in the summer when I want to use the VX as that then occupies the driveway.

Last night I parked on our road outside the old boy's bungalow as the builders who are renovating it will not be in over Xmas.

The Mondeo is continually being parked right in the middle of the spaces, I am sure they are shuffling the cars round every time they go out. However one car is not enough to block the whole section, which means I can get in there are their other car is going to have to park somewhere else. You can fit 3 cars there but they'll just be cutting off their noses to spite their faces if they carry on like that.
