minor things that make you fume

Quite nice neighbours next door leaving their wheelie bin a bit to close to my driveway. I'm not being pedantic but it causes me to do 3 point turn getting off my driveway, I want to knock on and explain but I'll probably come off aggressive and small minded. If they were horrid neighbours I'd dump the bin on their lawn. Oh the sleepless nights it's causing.

Send them a Xmas card mate.
 
youre one of them aren’t you mate. You’re a tailgater! What’s your problem? I hate tailgaters
But you can only ever find out if the car behind you is a tailgater if you:

a) notice someone clearly wanting to get past you AND

b) deliberately choose to remain in their way.

Remember: if you get out of the way, you won't have to "put up with" being tailgated... because the person trying to get past you will be able to get past you. A real-life, win-win scenario.

Are you one of those delightful relics who sits in lane 3 of the motorway with your cruise control on 70 (with lanes 2 and 1 empty beside you) wondering why you're going hoarse from shouting at all the "irresponsible fools" passing you on the inside?

Jesus Christ. No mate. I can’t believe I’m having to explain this. I’m talking about when you’re driving on a single lane road with no opportunities to overtake yet someone insists on driving up your rear for no reason as they can’t pass.

Anyways. This seems even more stupid and banal than the ‘who is better, gylfi or Ross’ debate that is currently polluting threads in the Everton forum. ....


it’s ross btw

I bet it is too.
It's the old story. You have to be charming and worm your way into their hearts. Then quietly mention it and give them a thank you bottle of wine when they move it.

Failing that, Plan B.

I’d just move the bin mate
 

I’d just move the bin mate
I do, but should I have too? It's a really small thing but it bit thoughtless that their driveway is clear but I'm impinged every bin day with their bin.
It's like the not indicating or leaving the door to slap in peoples faces, not huge things but the precursor to the complete and utter breakdown of civilisation and eventual mundicide.

Throw it through their front window. They'll soon learn.
 
That is an option but one I will have to steer away from given how close it is to Jesus's birthday.

couldn't you leave your bin in a similar position on their driveway...might make them think next time. Plus if they end up throwing it though your window it gives you the green light to follow suit.

I have a similar beef my neighbour, we share a double driveway and I park my car as far on my side as possible while they park their two cars with a massive gap to the wall of their house. Its technically still on their side of the drive but means I cant get my bicycle through the gap without lifting it over the wing mirrors as I pass which annoys me every time...all they got to do is park closer to the wall.
