For context, this is a super short close with only a few houses and no through route. All the kids who live here are super respectful and have clearly been raised to be aware of cars as they always stop playing and stand on the path when I am leaving in my car.
Idk, just glad to hear the people who take care of my street are putting effort into the really important stuff /s

I’ve seen loads of ‘no ball games’ signs over the years but never a ‘no playing’ sign.
Joyless bastards!
Commit no nuisance
How are they damaging brickwork? Does their ballgame involve a trebuchet?!
Surely this isn’t enforceable? They going to get the police round if there’s some bairns playing on bikes?
Wee curtain twitchers spotting an illegal game of kirby taking place?
How fragine are the bricks if a ball game is damage it? Or are the kids playing with wrecking balls?
What is this HOA shit. Some kind of shared ownership of the road in the cul-de-sac, while the houses themselves are freehold? Didn’t know we had that over here. Horrible net-curtain-twitching bollocks.
What the hell is a street management company? How the hell are they going to do about kids playing in the street beyond sending this stupid letter?
Roads and pavements are usually managed by the local authorities aren’t they?
I’ve never heard of a street management company. This feels like bullshit.
tell them to get fucked
this is pure bollocks, call it out.
do not let this just slide.
That company might just be that one neighbour that’s like a real-life Sheldon Cooper
Why are we adopting HOA mentality?
Can we please not end up like the US?
Yes. Let’s blame the children playing and not the people driving too fast. Sensational.
Tell them to fuck off
“Why do kids not play outside anymore?”
“When I was a lad, we were thrown out of the house and told not to come back till the street lights were on”
Your honour, may I present exhibit A.
I love how the bad capitalisation of “parked Cars” implies that they’re damaging the Pixar film, and not the vehicles
Some moany old bastard has complained. Back in my day the moany old bastards stabbed your football and lobbed it back to let you know.
Guess it’s different now.
