... now i do know we don't have the right to park outside our own houses but a bit of curtesy shouldn't go amiss
I fell out with my next door neighbour years ago over their lack of courtesy about parking. At the time there were 4 of them living next door, each of 'em had a car, and as soon as I moved a car from the front of my house (particularly at the week end), that was it - one of their cars was parked for the rest of the day. I bit my lip for ages & ages until he came to the door one day to thank me for allegedly marking the back of his car that I'd parked 0.010" from.
That was it ..... he got a couple of years worth of frustration with both barrels!!! I add myself to the list of all the neighbours he's fallen out with! 
My neighbours ain't a problem I know their cars, its the estate opposite mainly i think that are parking, even worse when Millwall are playing, don't go out in the car after 12, gets chokka. I have only had one run in with some idiot over the road that decided to park right up my a**e and the car the other side was the same, but she had parked on the junction e.g., within 12 feet of on the turning almost. i had no way of getting out, found out which house she lived in from another neighbour knocked on her door about 2p.m., the cars been blocked in since morning, she looked out the window, and said don't bother me about that man, was I fuming or what, well, after I said what i said and she moved her car, it has never happenned since
