Landlord's apology solves mystery over holidaymaker car that 'had just dropped out of the sky'

An apology from a landlord has finally shed the light over a mysterious car randomly parked on a property. It comes after a a Sheldon mum-of-two woke up to a holidaymaker's vehicle which stayed in her driveway for nearly a week.

Debbie Flynn, who neighbours Birmingham International Airport, was furious to find a silver Vauxhall Mokka mysteriously left next to her garage on Tuesday April 12. The baffled mum has spent seven days wondering why the motorist had gone so far as to unlock gates to her drive off Outmore Road, Garrett's Green, to purposely park there. Now she has found out after a note from her landlord, reports Birmingham Live.

Debbie had suspected fraudsters had sold her drive as a cheap parking spot for the airport after police confirmed the car was not stolen and her landlord said he knew nothing about it. But the mum has now received an email from her landlord, who had forgotten he'd registered for a parking app years ago.
