  We do not have driveways on our block, all the parking is on the street
  as you see in the picture. I just took the only available spot at the 
  time when I parked my car last night.   I've living in my house for almost 
  10 years and own the Spitfire for just as long.  I've always have someone
  coming up and ask me about the car when I'm  working on it so most poeple on
  our block knows is my car.   The people in that house just moved there last
  July.

  When I parked my car last night I left enought space in front for a
  compact car, not a station wagan, but this person made it fit.  I don't
  really mind if people park close to my car, but what bothers me is the hitch
  on the station wagan.  It can cause some serious damage to the bonnet because
  it is situated above the Spit's bumbers.   I was going to walk to work and 
  check on the car later.   I only took the pictures incase there was damge to
  the bonnet by the hitch.

  I was finished taking the pictures when I saw the lady who own the car
  behind the spit.  Here reaction was that "Ohh, is that your car?", I don't
  thing there is any good excuse for boxing someone in for parking in front
  of your house.  But, she did moved her car.  But there was another car 
behind
  her car and she was only able to move the car back about 6 inches.  It took 
  3 tries to wiggle the Spit out.  I'll just make sure the next time I park
  the car to not to leave enought space for someone to squeeze in.
