Won't B be home from work soon? She'll have her coveted spot in 1/2 then!

About time! This is a classic thread after all Grin congrats OP.
I've been following since the beginning and always check in to see the goings on, haha.
I too often wonder about Bs work parking situation. Maybe she has a special space that she cones off every day so it's saved for her.
Either that or her work colleagues watch when she arrives to see if she gets "her" spot and have conversations equivalent to this thread if someone else is parked there.

Currently the whole street is vacant. It'll be a free for all later!!!

Oh my word!!!! I've been stalking this thread since it started since the beginning - although Im afraid I haven't invested in diagram and sometimes get a bit confused of who parks where - but it's really hilarious!!!!

I would love to know about B parking at work. Does she have a precious spot there? What happens if she needs to reverse?

TeetotalKoala · 23/02/2020 23:23

B is on earlies this week.

WeeM · 23/02/2020 21:47

I find it slightly worrying that people are so invested they have now learnt B’s shift pattern Grin

You do realise OP this thread could go on for YEARS!

Lweji · 23/02/2020 20:37

No chance of C in 1/X?

PotterHead1985 · 23/02/2020 20:24

Stressedout10 · 23/02/2020 20:06

Ahhh it's a disappointing evening. B is in 1/2, D is in 3 and F is in 4.

@sunshinesupermum I don't know! The poor people may keep having to use the next street while everyone plays their games.

@allthesharks no he didn't. He's just as bad as the others I think.

If the K's have two cars where re they parked? #askingforafriend

allthesharks · 23/02/2020 00:29

I hope D reversed to be fully in 2, leaving 3 for someone else just to prove how it can work if people don't park like arseholes.

olympicsrock · 23/02/2020 00:06

Loving the drama!!

FrostyBamboo · 23/02/2020 00:03

There's a market for 'but is it touching?' bumper stickers.

originalcatlady · 22/02/2020 23:05

I think she's probably just worried about being trapped. I can't imagine the drama stopping after all these years.

(And if it does, I'll be back when DD gets her car GrinGrinGrin!)

Supertrooper98 · 22/02/2020 22:36

Wow. Maybe she has finally learned and all of the problems are suddenly solved and no more parking drama on Alphabet Street. It would be a lovely conclusion but I feel a bit sad for some reason

B has returned and taken an uncharacteristic position in 1; assuming this is to avoid being "trapped" by someone nearly touching her if she was level with her front door 🤔

Gah! Sorry! I must move my pieces off the board promptly..... Blush
