Driveway or Not?
Frankie-Boy:
I've got a drive and its full, there's a caravan, a trailer, my Daihatsu Fourtrak toy, SWMBO's Fiat Punto and my Disco, we have to play musical motors some days depending on who has to go out first.

You might not be aware but by law (1986 Vehicle Lighting regs IIRC) any vehicle weighing more than 1525kg Kerbweight MUST be parked with sidelights on, facing the direction of traffic any time after lighting up, irrespective of the speed limit in force, when on a public road UNLESS parking within a parked parking bay.
Personally I think it's bl***y selfish of people to have cars and dump them on a roadside when they have a perfectly good drive doing nothing.
Not wanting to ruffle any feathers and I know many folks don't have off-road parking, but I got to a lot of trouble to make sure my cars are all off the road, on my property (or space I rent) and not in anyone else's way, so when I come home and can't get onto my drive because some bone idle t****r can't be bothered or hasn't the skill to get onto their drive it seriously p****s me off. You wouldn't guess though would you :wink:

Like Frank, I have to play musical motors with my single width drive. It's 4 cars long with 3 on it most times, but it can get interesting in the single track lane outside :lol:
P.S. I'm not rich.... I've got a damn great mortgage to pay just to have the privelage of bricks and mortar.

Me too, I just opted to swap the grass that I never cut for gravel, it still looks neat and contrasts nicley with the Tarmac driveway, then I covered in in Solihull metal :D
