B either didn't go to work or used a taxi...trying to believe there is more to that than saving her space but I wouldn't be surprised 🤣

C waited in her car until D left, and is now in 3.

There is also a Strange White Car in 4...this is going to be the best part of today Grin

It wouldn't surprise me with this lot to be fair

HelloBambinos · 02/03/2020 22:42

D is now home and sitting in his car kind of at the end of my drive, presumably waiting for white van to move.

She waited until C drove off and moved into "her" space!

Then a big white van came and parked in 2/3 and she had the nerve to ask which house he was going to and how long he would be!!!

Just for a bit of light relief, have any of you seen the most recent parking thread? Just the OP's posts are brilliant, but a lot of good commentary, as well! www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3837189-It-s-a-parking-one?pg=1&messages=100

I would say I'm shocked at Bs obvious 'I'm waiting for you to move to steal your space' action but I'm not.. Please give c a lift op ha. I would love for her to get a lift instead or for someone else to drop the kids off.. The look on Bs face would be magical

BigFatLiar · 02/03/2020 14:25

Be neighbours
Neighbourly and ask C if you could give her a lift for the school run

Returned. Sitting in her car...maybe hoping C will go for the school run soon?

B is at work.

She moved her car into "her" space just after 8.30pm even though she was going out to work at 5am

teaandcake19 · 02/03/2020 12:20

Isn't B on earlies this week?

sunshinesupermum · 02/03/2020 12:10

I thought B had parked in her 1/2 spot last night. Has she gone out so that C is now parked there?

originalcatlady · 02/03/2020 10:42

C is home. She's in her passive aggressive 1/2, level with B's door.

Better than me who will be woken by her screeching and revving at 5am!

But just think how much better B will sleep knowing all is right in her world Grin

They keep coming and going. They haven't parked in 4 again yet! Seem to be doing lots of work. I can't wait for this new chapter.

OP posts:
BigFatLiar · 01/03/2020 20:44

Any sign of the new neighbours yet?

originalcatlady · 01/03/2020 20:39

Anywayyyy. C just went out (perfectly normal behaviour if you've not moved for three days Hmm). B was straight out to move her car a few feet so she is back in 1/2. Because that really matters when you go to work at 5am Grin.

Haha. Daily Mail got hold of this story early on and misreported that I was watching from behind my net curtains.

Why? Whats in the fail? Have I missed a bit?
