Van driver warning
Mr Whippy - 20/2/09 at 08:21 AM

For those van drivers I was told by my neighbours last night were storming through my drive using it as a short cut to avoid the closed road, even though its obviously private and were wrecking my new drive

Be careful of that big puddle thats appeared...after all it is 3ft deep…….hee hee

I’ll be checking for tyre tracks when I get home

ha ha ha so you save a few vans ruining your new drive, you dug a 3ft deep hole in it?

the benefit of owning a JCB

cost me 1k in stones for the drive, I'll fill the hole once I've taken a few vans out

I like it, but beware with this stupid nanny, blame culture, its not my fault, I'm a victim, litigation society, you might end up with some van repair bills on you doorstep.....

there is a sign clearly saying 'Private no through road'...

last one that parked on my drive got dragged behind my digger with a sling and dumped on a lay by. No freeloaders tolerated

sorry got no pics just now as it was dark by the time I'd finished

Get off my land!!!

A neighbour of mine got so fed up of lorries driving over the grass verge outside his garden that he cast some concrete in big flowerpots, painted the lumps white and set them in the ground just on the safe side of the legal requirements (they have to be a minimum distance from the road edge, and under a certain height).

A week or two later he had a lorry driver knocking on his door complaining that one of his tyres had been damaged!

He was then told:

(a) The posts were totally legal and within regulations.
(b) Lorries over a certain weight and length were banned from this particular country lane.

My neighbour then offered to phone the police on behalf of the driver, but the offer was declined...


speedyxjs - 20/2/09 at 03:07 PM

please please take some piccys


omega 24 v6 - 20/2/09 at 04:08 PM

Nice one Scott I love it.
But if my parcel doesn't arrive I hold you responsible.
PICTURES PLEASE.


Danozeman - 20/2/09 at 04:12 PM

I only wanna see a picture if theres a van in it!!

At my old house the bloke i got it from got so fed up with people cutting across the corner of the front garden he concreted some 6ft oak posts in the ground.4 ft under and 2 over ground. He bagged quite a few of the same persons bumpers and it also happened when i owned the house. Good neighbourly relations but You have to teach the sods a lesson.


pocket rocket - 20/2/09 at 05:54 PM

lol, thats so cool, i to would like to see a hole with a van in it!


John Bonnett - 20/2/09 at 06:08 PM

hmm, i think he's a bit too quiet since yesterday. I suspect he was driving home from work and forgot himself


NigeEss - 3/3/09 at 08:06 PM

Did you bag any vans Mr W ?


blakep82 - 3/3/09 at 08:09 PM

Tough poo, as I'd say "It's my house I'll dig a bleeding moat if I want to!"

As an aside how did they find out your drive is a shortcut?


blakep82 - 26/10/09 at 02:11 PM

hmm, still no evidence


mistergrumpy - 26/10/09 at 03:47 PM
