The word your is ownership, you're, is short for you are, they have completely different meanings as for your spelling of buses instead of bushes its best not be childish
I haven't got to page 2 yet
No need to go that far - the very next post after "correcting" your to you're in "the street outside your house" we get the wonderful "common curtoisy". Not to mention the way "my dad and I were stood on the driveway" as if they were statues placed there by someone, and the repeated curiosity of "non-immediate next door neighbour". That would just be "neighbour", then...
I agree, however, with those who reckon this is just a wind-up thread. Too many key DS buttons are being pressed by the OP.
This is a genuine thread, I haven't made any of the stuff up I've posted. I was seeking some advice from 'helpful' people (Doesn't include people leaving negative or rude comments). As for my spelling, the mispelling of bushes as buses is due to my phone changing the word. My parents feel strongly as I do about the parking and neighbour situation, otherwise I wouldn't bother to post on here. It has caused stress, especially on my mum who suffers from stress-related problems and blood pressure. We don't deserve to be mistreated in the way we are being treated. I had a polite word with the neighbour tonight about the parking and other things I've mentioned in this thread. They were blunt and wouldn't agree to park in their own driveway/ outside their own house (Damn arrogance). My dad has now left his Punto parked outside our house to prevent them from doing it, hopefully this will ease the problem. I am indeed 21, I don't have to be retired or older to be bothered by these things. I suffer from Asperger's Syndrome and certain things affect my anxiety and stress (Especially awkward parking and vandalism to our plants).
I consider their behaviour overall as a form of harrassment, mainly the parking and watching us from the windows (This happened again tonight shortly after I spoke to them). I wish they would just vanish but obviously that isn't going to happen. I hope things improve and they treat us with more respect than currently
I have also forgot to add, the other day we found some of our outdoor Christmas lights lying on the ground (Were wrapped around the bushes) and I doubt the wind had done it as I had wrapped them around to ensure they don't fall off - Also had our tree knocked over (No wind all day or night).
Sadly you get ***** of the anti social variety in every neighbourhood, in London during the week I live in a flat and had some nice lights and a small tree at the front door in the communal stair (nothing in the deeds states I cannot do that) and we got back last night to find the tree broken in half and the lights broken, like you its ***** who have just moved in who have a problem with the block and Christmas. The lecture from the neighbour about my other half's dress sense the other day probably caused the following to happen.
I'd say don't retaliate but I'd be a hypocrite as the other half super glued their front door locks tonight😁
Sorry if I have misjudged you, OP. Unfortunately there isn't a lot you can do if the neighbours are parking within the law. For the vandalism you would need proof before you could take any action, and resolution won't be easy or quick, very probably the opposite.
I suggest looking at this article on the Neighbours From Hell site about parking and posting in the forum with the condensed facts of the whole situation if necessary. In the meantime you must not lose your temper or confront the neighbours as this will only make things worse for you and your parents: http://www.nfh.org.uk/resources/Articles/parking/index.php

Yeah you're so right there mate, I don't understand why they have set out to cause trouble and problems for us. They've only just moved in, they introduced themselves to some other neighbours but not to us. In fact, they ignored us from the very start. Not to sound petty, but just last night we had another guest of theirs decide to park by our house again, a silver X reg Audi (Sighs - It's a different person every day). They don't use their own driveway or parking space which angers me.
That's disgusting you had your Christmas tree and lights broken, is there any CCTV camera systems that may have filmed this incident? That's blantant criminal damage to your property. I know how you feel though, we have to endure this almost every day and we are just worrying what the next thing will be that happens. We have a lovely display of outdoor Christmas lights and decorations (A tree on the porch, a snowman, reindeer, etc) and I worry they might target them next as they've already pulled lights off the bushes and now half the set don't light up from being damaged. We even have dummy CCTV cameras on our house, I was hoping they would deter this from happening but obviously not. I'm wondering if maybe some of it is simply jealously as well, they haven't put any Christmas decorations up yet surprisingly.
I would report that vandalism to your landford or even the police, they can monitor the behaviour. I'm sorry you have to put up with these anti-social people as well mate.

No worries, I understand your reasons for misjudgment. I was just wound up about it this morning when I posted it, and I hadn't slept very well either so I felt worse and couldn't think clearly about it without being calm. I appreciate your help, I will take a look at that website now. Thank you very much. It's so useful to post on here, and get an outside opinion from others. It feels really nasty and almost intimidating in how they're behaving, especially including the sinister parking since I had a word with them about it. I discovered the nose of the snowman outside had oddly come off and was lying on the driveway tonight (It's glued and held on with metal pins). I don't trust them one bit, they leave their net curtains pulled open all evening, so they can see our movements

Btw, brilliant revenge glueing their door locks tonight, good on you mate. I don't blame you one bit, it makes me so angry when people break my stuff - See how they like having their property meddled with. If they don't like it, they shouldn't do it to others.
Anyway, wtf was said about your other half's dress sense?
I think your really over reacting, they aren't blocking your driveway, they have every right to park on the street outside your house. Just be thankful this is all they are doing!
But it is annoying if the neighbours are constantly doing it.
Not sure why people are having a go at the OP, he has already explained what these neighbours are doing and it's not just about the parking but also their unpleasant behaviour.
I'm sure if any one of you lot were in his position, you would be offended by what the neighbours are doing too.
I also forgot to mention that the other night my dad and I were stood on the driveway talking and the woman was peering out of the bedroom window at us and when I glanced up at her she had the nerve to put her middle finger up at me and then shut the curtains (Bearing in mind she was nosing at US). They constantly watch our movements, almost every evening when either me, my mum or dad are going out or have got home they stand by their lounge window and watch us (Their lounge window faces our driveway). I spoke with my next door neighbour about the damage, incidents etc to ask if they had seen anything r.e. plants being damaged and the man next door walked over to our driveway and I showed him the damage and whilst I was showing and discussing it with him, they appeared at the lounge window and were watching until we went back indoors (Somewhat suspicious behaviour am I right?)

They sound like arrogant, idiotic people.
Thanks for defending me here, I feel rest assured to know some people are on my side with this. Whilst I know there is nothing I can as they're not doing anything illegal with the parking, it is becoming a nuisance having to put up with their rude and childish behaviour.
They are indeed arrogant and idiotic people, they have no respect or compassion for us, yet I can bet that if we did the same to them with the parking, they would be the first to have a pop. I am tired of them watching us from their window, It's hugely invading our privacy I feel.
You could try putting dogpoo under the door handles if they are the lift up type might not stop them parking there but it would cheer you up when they are howling with horror

Not sure why you expect respect from them when you seem to spend your time looking down your nose at them because you consider them to not be good enough to live in your area?
They're perfectly entitled to park on a public road and they're perfectly entitled to look out of the windows of their own house. They're doing nothing wrong and the problem is arising because you're making a mountain out of a molehill. Chill out.
Fear of escalating the problem (and it is a problem) is the main worry. I lived in a small cottage with the door going onto the pavement, so no front garden, and my neighbours would always park their jeep right outside my house, blocking light into my house. They were a nasty couple and I never said anything because I knew they knew they were doing it deliberately (they had another small car they parked outside their house, not blocking light).
The stuff with the parcel is enough to know that these neighbours are not "nice" neighbours and unless you grovel to them and become their friend, I doubt whether they will stop. Some people just like winding others up.

Well i think there is another bit of information that does make a big differance, you have said that you suffer from Asperger's Syndrome, which does effect your level of Communication, socialising skills and learning skills,
Hey OP, I see you saying that you think its rude that these new neighbours haven't spoken to you, or introduced themselves.
Have you introduced yourself to them?
After all they are the new neighbours, so a little warm welcome from you at the start may have gone a long way, and you may be on a better keel now going forward to deal with any issues that you have.
I'm failing to understand how these neighbours have been rude to you OP? I can see that having cars parked everywhere in your street is a nuisance, but it's a common problems these days because there tends to be more than one car per household. Saying it's making your life a "living hell" is pathetic, if you've ever lived next to genuinely awful neighbours you would realise what a stupid overreaction you're making.
Postie reckoned they were trying to keep it without giving it back as he said he told her he didn't leave us a card as he assumed we got on with each other.
L)
The lazy postmen really pee me off when they just leave items with neighbours. This is not the 1960s any longer, most people are out at work all day and some hardly know their neighbours - why do they assume they are honest as well. Its a practice I wish the Royal Mail would cease

I attempted to introduce myself to them when I knocked to collect my parcel, only to be ignored twice (There was no logical reason why she ignored me at the door). The day after when the postman went round to collect my parcel from them, I was also accompying him and I was polite and said 'Hi, I am "" and I live at Number 10'. In fact, she was rude and blunt with me and simply said 'I didn't know where Number 10 was' whilst sighting a lot, and shut the door.

No need to go that far - the very next post after "correcting" your to you're in "the street outside your house" we get the wonderful "common curtoisy". Not to mention the way "my dad and I were stood on the driveway" as if they were statues placed there by someone, and the repeated curiosity of "non-immediate next door neighbour". That would just be "neighbour", then...
I agree, however, with those who reckon this is just a wind-up thread. Too many key DS buttons are being pressed by the OP.
Far too obvious.
I reckon dear Sheridan is visiting and has been let loose on Mummy's computer.
Doesn't make much sense to my eyes either, strange thread indeed.

If she gets as worked up as you do about people parking on a piece of road that you don't own, i'm not surprised.
I think you all need to get a bloody grip!
