You don;t have a legal right to reserve any space even one outside yuor
home, my dad tried that years ago puttign out a wheelie bin so a
trademan could deliver some paving slabs, but you DO NOT have the right
to reserve a parking space for ANYONE else not even yourself.

That's why you need a special permit for tradesmen, etc. From the council.
Who do have the rights.

And that relates to a parking zone NOT a persons adresss.


Good to know your dad was as daft as yourself...

Yes a person is daft to think an individual owns the road outside their
house just because they pay council and road tax, they do not own the
road.



Thicko Stokie just been fined for putting an abusive message on an
ambulance which had parked outside her house whilst answering a 999
call. Done for breach of the peace.

The note is moronic in the extreme (including 'van' to replace the
rather long word 'ambulance') but apparently gave the ambulance staff
the benetit of her opinion in (unprepossessing) person too, which is
probably explains the readiness of the police to prosecute.
