Hi!
A neighbour of mine had his house rented for a long time. There is only one parking space in his drive. When the tenants were there there was always problems with parking but when I asked them to move so I could get into my drive, they were really accommodating and appologetic.
However, the Landlord has moved back into the property. When he parks his car behind his friends, it juts out into the cul de sac, and I can't swing my car in. When I ask him to try and not park there again and explain the situation he gets really angry.
Today, when I came home with my two primary age kids, I couldn't get out into my driveway again. When I asked him to move his car, he started shouting and screaming at me, and telling me to f....ing shut. I stood my ground and told him he was just demonstrating his ignorance. I don't want to encounter this again, especially not in front of my kids. I just want to be able to drive into my driveway and park without any problems at the end of a long day.
I asked the guards for their advice, as though I stood my ground, I felt quite shaken after it. They said they would send up a car, and talk to both of us, but I thought this would inflame the situation with my youngish neighbour.
Would appreciate people's comments/advice how to handle this.
