The disabled space - is it painted white or yellow? Dos it have blue sign saying disabled parking only?

Lweji · 04/03/2020 16:17

Interesting...

Oh, and just because: Daffodil

originalcatlady · 04/03/2020 16:14

No...I did wonder if L did 😉

No chance that A called the Council, then?

I thought D made a comment a couple of days ago but B is too obtuse to realise it was aimed at her.

originalcatlady · 04/03/2020 16:07

Soo this afternoons highlights. B got home and did her usual arm waving complaining. C went out. B moved two feet forward. C returned, parked in X.

A now has visitors, who have had to park in 3, as C wouldn't open the door when everyone knocked on. They are all currently in the street bitching...B has absolutely no realisation that half this is her fault!

Thanks for the Christmas link originalcatlady

You have to make time for the important things, Kath had me wetting myself!

MaggieFS · 04/03/2020 15:15

What happened?

originalcatlady · 04/03/2020 13:26

Yes! we have the new neighbours moving in and then your DD starts driving...many more years of fun. I keep forgetting that you've told us you've been peeping through the blinds for years🤣

originalcatlady · 04/03/2020 06:38

Oh we might have quiet phases but this has been entertaining me for years. I can't see it ending Grin

As soon as I've decided that the AS thread may be coming to a close there is an explosion of activity with new catch phrases to boot!
"It can't carry on" and " They need to be told" and then Mr.D saves the day by pulling no punches with "Well if you didn't park there we could all fit in"
We're gonna have a whole new Spring Collection of Alphabet Street TShirts all with different catch- phrases....TheOriginalCatLady collection...let's see..GiGi Hadid walking the catwalk wearing..."It can't carry on!"
Kendall Jenner in "They need to be told!", Cheryl Tiegs in "Yeah, but am I touching?" (🤣remember her? I couldnt think of a any more new models) and of course, to close out the show...Mrs.B will come flouncing down the runway in her pink dressing gown!

TeetotalKoala · 03/03/2020 22:35

Oooh. I like D. He's quietly pissed off about it all.

originalcatlady · 03/03/2020 22:05

It can't go on. It's ridiculous.

HelloBambinos · 03/03/2020 22:02

Ooo I predict intense revving with a side of 'they need to be told' at 5am 😂

originalcatlady · 03/03/2020 21:30

If C doesn't return, she's safe to rev out of that spot in the morning...

OP posts:
teaandcake19 · 03/03/2020 21:26

Will B be able to get out tomorrow morning?

originalcatlady · 03/03/2020 20:37

B didn't go out today. She's still in "her" spot.

OP posts:
HelloBambinos · 03/03/2020 20:35

Yes the disabled parking angers me. Where is B parked? Has she returned yet?

originalcatlady · 03/03/2020 20:21

Agree - but they all do.

OP posts:
GabsAlot · 03/03/2020 19:18

Theyre all crackers-as much as i agree with d noone shold be parking in the disabled space

originalcatlady · 03/03/2020 19:13

There's only X available now. Mr K has parked outside the empty house down the road. So really they need to stop being selfish and move in now, so we have a new car or two to the mix Grin

OP posts:
HelloBambinos · 03/03/2020 19:09

I Know the K's aren't there but I like how they just rock up and park wherever and close the door in Bs face.. Though saying that they need to be more part of the entertainment and stop having such an active social life to be honest... Wonder what B is up to. Wasn't her space available? Has she returned yet?

originalcatlady · 03/03/2020 18:58

@GabsAlot yeah but no one ever stands up to her in the scary pink dressing gown Grin
