Haha I was thinking the same when I replied, I'm 40 and I describe myself as old 🤣

BTW - old wasn't meant to be offensive - I'm only in my early 40s, but I'd refer to us as old marrieds!

Hmm yes about that...Mr B is retired so on the balance of probabilities she's got to be approaching 60?

How old is B then? I imagined her as late middle-aged and very cantankerous!

Only B, F, K and M are married/couples and only M is "old".

I know it's wrong, but I want to know which neighbour had an overnight guest!! I was picturing them all as old married couples!

So she finished work late.. Then was up to move to her precious space at 7am even though she is on a late shift and will have to leave again soon... Do you know what profession she works in? Just so I know... I pray its not medical..

She sleeps when she has her space and the world is in equilibrium

Goes without saying that it was moved as soon as Visitor Car left at 7am 🤣

Not that anyone should park in a disabled space but i hope she gets her car written off for parking on a junction

SisterFarAway · 26/02/2020 11:34

Does that constant revving in 1st gear and shouting down the road comparatively late at night not constitute as noise nuisance? Just saying...

She's assessing all the houses. Little bit scared she'll come and ask me since I'm the only one lit up

If she does then invite her in while you 'check the MN site to see if you can help her'! Let her see it too, let her see what a viral star she is!

sunshinesupermum · 26/02/2020 09:23

Shouting down the street to Mr B to ask whose car it is (flailing arms towards Visitor Car).

The best yet. Did you film her originalcatlady?

TinyTear · 26/02/2020 08:24

an anonymous tip off over an illegally parked car near the junction would have been ahem interesting

Frenchw1fe · 26/02/2020 07:26

B didn't go on M's drive? Thought that was her last resort.

Gogolego · 26/02/2020 07:21

GrinGrin who in their right mind stands in the street at 22:30 and shout at their dh about the state of the parking

Sissymate2 · 26/02/2020 04:43

@originalcatlady
I must have missed something! When did Mr.K park in 5? And who read him the riot act?

MsMD · 26/02/2020 00:16

I wonder how late she'll stay awake watching.

I wonder how long I'll stay awake waiting

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 25/02/2020 23:53

This is so much better than eastenders.

Get outta my space

Gooseysgirl · 25/02/2020 23:02

Brilliant 😂 I cannot WAIT for the new neighbours with extra cars!

partofthepeanutgallery · 25/02/2020 22:31

hilarious

i think the next time she complains to someone about their legally parked cars, they should calmly tell her that she clearly needs to improve her parallel parking skills.
