Neighbours in parking feud swap passive aggressive windscreen notes

<p>Two neighbours in London have been left in a parking feud, which was first started when a passive aggressive note was left on a car windscreen.</p> <p>The driver, who started the angry note exchange, became furious after noticing that his neighbour had parked over two spaces.</p> <p>"Your selfish inconsiderate parking is atrocious," he wrote on the note that was left on the windscreen.</p> <p>He also accused the owner of the car of “wasting space” by parking in the middle of two spots.</p> <p>However, when the car owner saw the note left on their vehicle, they didn’t take it very well and decided to fight back.</p> <p>The owner of the car penned their own passive aggressive note, which has since been shared on Reddit.</p> <p>"To whoever put the note here and the one before that, has it ever occurred to you that I might have parked very considerately behind a car in the only space provided and that subsequently the other cars moved away leaving my a car where it was?" the owner of the parked car wrote.</p> <p>"From now on, please take note: I always park as considerately as I am able to in the space there is.</p> <p>"Kindly stop putting passive aggressive notes on my car.</p> <p>"PS. If you had the courtesy to let me know which house you are in, I could have explained this in person."</p> <p>The owner also wanted to talk to the person face to face, to end the parking feud.</p> <p>"If you would like to have a civilised discussion about this instead of making me feel like I am being harassed by an unseen stranger, please drop by, or at least drop a note in my door letting me know which door I can post a response into, instead of making me feel like I have a primary school feud," he wrote.</p> <p>It is unknown if the pair have since met in person and made amends.</p> <p>Have you ever been involved in a parking feud with a neighbour?
