B isn't home yet. Very odd.

Anyway, the visitors have now left and C has been out and moved her car back to 1/2. D is home and in 3. New is in 4.

Sooo F, Mr and Mrs K AND B still to arrive 🍿

This is amazing. Poor Mr. B. He just knew that he was going to get it in the neck. How very dare TWO cars use TWO spaces. That's so much cheekier than B using her ONE car to take up two spaces. What did B do when she came home?

I love that E is getting involved now.

I failed you all. Mr B screwed them up and posted them through A! Even N went across to find out what was going on!

New neighbour is in 4 ( which means you can't use 5). Alphabet Street is all full up Grin

Perhaps Mrs B has tasked Mr B with ensuring there's a space for her, more than his life worth to fail to comply.

She could park in 4 or 5 if they're free .

Imagine if everyone was self-isolating and filled all the places up before her - weeks with no space.

saltysow · 17/03/2020 14:48

Can't remember who E is! Do they have a drive?

Pashazade · 17/03/2020 14:46

I can no longer remember which side of the road you are on in relation to B, would a pair of binoculars work for reading of messages, or would the flash of sunlight on lense give you away! Grin

MaggieFS · 17/03/2020 14:44

Golly - Mr B getting involved! Please do go and read the post it's. You know it's your duty!

Well it's all getting a bit fraught here...

C is in a sensible 2.
E (I know, I know!!!) is in 3.
A has visitors in X and 1.

Mr B has just knocked on As door and from the waving hands at the rest of the street, I think he was saying there are no parking spaces and kicking off a bit about his guests parking outside his house. B is due home.

A went inside, Mr B then started knocking on Cs door - obviously no reply.

Mr B then went inside. Shortly after, A came out and stuck a load of post it notes on Bs door!!

It's absolutely killing me not to go out and read them but A is still standing on his doorstep!

Where does B work? Is she going to have to keep working (supermarket etc) or will she be told to wfh?

C never moved for the rest of the day so poor B has had to manage with her X/1 spot allll day, no moving around here today!

@sunshinesupermum because C parked exactly parallel to it and they were both parked on the road.

It's the same as 4&5 not being able to be used at the same time.

Like i said previous thread i think if u keep starting up the briefly and shutting it off it starts damagin it

PenguinsOnParade · 16/03/2020 19:15

So C could have had her pick of any of the spaces in the street but chose B's coveted spot. Sounds like C is pissed off at her too. Maybe C is a MN lurker. That would be a fun twist.

sunshinesupermum · 16/03/2020 19:04

Alphabet Street must be narrower than I realised originalcatlady if a van outside N's drive blocked the whole street. What was C meant to do?

C is home. She has parked in 1/2. The only other vehicle in the entire street was a workman's van, parked at the end of Ns drive. This resulted in complete block of the street. C ignored the beeping and the door knocking, meaning that workman moved into X/1. Grin

Hard to say her age. Mr B retired years ago but she only seems mid 50s but then her GC are my DC age 🤷‍♀️

Car I think about ten years old.

And you're all hilarious!

@TeetotalKoala
Still keeping up with B's schedule, eh?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@originalcatlady
Just had a thought....if B's work is forced to close then maybe while she has all that time off, she can put it to good use by practicing her parking skills all day for months on end..🤣🤣🤣🤣
Originalcatlady will be like🤪🤯😖🙄 with all Bs revving her way in and out for hours on end🤣🤣
