As an aside... we have alley garages where I live, but does anyone know if there a rule about people parking in front of your house/yard?? Our neighbours across the street have 1) a big extended family that apparently comes to visit all the freakin time, and 2) run some sort of electrolosis/waxing business out of their house.

So all their family/clients park in front of our house for some reason, even though the street in front of their house is wide open for parking. It drives me bonkers. And we're in a cul-de-sac, so all these people are actually driving past their house and turning around before parking in front of our house and walking across the street.

I know it probably shouldn't bug me. But it totally does.
When we ran our landscaping business from our home we researched very carefully the legal restrictions we would need to deal with when running a home based business. One was, you could only have up to 3 deliveries/employees/clients visit your home a week.

If it is causing you grief talk to them about it and explain that while you understand they need to run thier business, you would appreciate it if they would advise their clients to steer clear of in front of your house. There are probably some very solid grounds for you to launch a formal complaint if they don't decide to appease you.
