Default Street Parking Warning at Thurles

When parking on the street outside Thurles car park, although there are no "Resident Only Parking" signs or yellow lines on the road, one house has decided to enforce it's own policy outside of their house (even though they do not own a car).

This involves slashing one or more of your tyres.

This happened to me twice. The 1st time I thought it was coincidence, but after the 2nd time and seeing at least one other rail user suffer it is more than random vandolism (still vandolism, just not random).

It is about the XXXX house on the right (past the turning into the old gael scoil) after the bridge over the railway as you head out towards Holycross.

I have also seen the resident arguing with someone else who parked in front of their house, so am fairly sure they are also the slasher of tyres.

It seems that many regulars already know this as the space is often left free now. This happened to me towards the end of last year and recently no-one parks there. I didn't bother going to the Garda as without evidence/proof what will can they do...

But I wanted to post a thread for the sake of others peoples tyres.

Yes, I know I should use the train car park, but at €384 (48 weeks @ €8 per week) for a years parking, I simply can't afford it.
