Well this had made my Friday, Amazing work by the K's

RainbowAlicorn · 21/02/2020 21:12

Oh gotta love Mr and Mrs K.

coastergirl · 21/02/2020 21:11

Oh this is fantastic!

My little boy put on his grandma's pink dressing gown this morning and I instantly thought of this thread.

Gogolego · 21/02/2020 21:09

Ahhh ok C has gone AWOL again
In my head B is an old bat but by the sounds of her activities she's much younger than that

TeetotalKoala · 21/02/2020 21:01

What colour is F's dressing gown?

TeetotalKoala · 21/02/2020 21:00

Also, as an aside, this is my first time posting using the app instead of the website. Why have I not used it sooner?!?!

TeetotalKoala · 21/02/2020 20:57

Oh this is a wonderful development! The fact that F has parked in 5 is an absolute game changer. No longer will she be able to scold the K's.

I also love that Mrs. K is in 1/2. That leaves a pissed off F AND a pissed off B. Because if there's one person who won't move for B, it's K

C often doesn't return. She's a little odd.

I'm guessing B is out drinking so her return will be irrelevant Grin

Where is C in all of this
Parking up for the evening with WineWineWine

sunshinesupermum · 21/02/2020 20:34

Bravo Mr and Mrs K! Will B go and knock of Mrs and Mrs K's door when she gets back, I wonder? I'm imagining F twitching her curtains now.

So we have Strange Car and Strange Car next to X.
D in X/1.
Mrs K in 1/2.
Mr K in 3.
B in 4.
F in 5.

We also have a very anxious F watching for movement and an absent B.

Yes Mr and Mrs K have two cars. They are usually very kind and park further along (after their telling off about parking in 5...well that backfired!)

Have Mr and Mrs K got two cars then? Am now confused

sunshinesupermum · 21/02/2020 20:02

Perfect Friday evening 'viewing' popcorn and Wine at the ready

SisterFarAway · 21/02/2020 20:02

Definitely Popcorn, maybe ice cream when it's a bit quiet, of course just short of cinema mark-ups. You'd make a fortune.

@originalcatlady
You did warn us that things could get real interesting on the weekend!

Jojo2wyatr · 21/02/2020 19:59

I've just had to buy another giant bag of popcorn kernals

Jojo2wyatr · 21/02/2020 19:57

Just when you think the shenanigans on Alphabet Street are cooling down things can rev( pun intended) up in an instant...🤣🤣🤣🤣 @originalcatlady we can truly get a glimpse into why this has had you captivated for eons! Can't wait for your DD to be able to drive....maybe Mrs B can offer her some revving- her- way -out -of -parking -places tipsGrin

Cars are passing through ok but I doubt a fire engine could.

BinkySodPlop · 21/02/2020 19:34

So, with cars in 4 and 5, does this mean the street is dangerously narrow, now?? Are they all in a Mexican standoff?

Am I the only one who thinks that this is the best Friday evening for a while? Grin

SisterFarAway · 21/02/2020 19:18

You should put camping or garden chairs on your drive and rent them out for all the entertainment. Grin
