I can’t believe this has continued until Monday (or now Tuesday really). Any nirmal person would want their car back not CF though he must have another.

I'm heading to the coast tomorrow with a bad data signal 😱

I need to know how this eventually goes down in great detail, accents, body language, what was he wearing etc.

I don't care of it's a troll thread (don't think it is) as we've got a whole TV series out of it.

Ludo with Lund

I really hope that your little bit of forest is Thieves Wood would be so apt. Any other good forest names in the Midlands?

@ShamelessCurtainTwitcher

Thank you, CPF for giving us this gift of another tomorrow to look forward to!

I am grinning like it is Trump’s move out day all over again!

(Cue the fireworks and the brass band🤣)

Oh God no, not fireworks.

Some utter fuckwits are having a party up the road from us this evening, and have been setting off fireworks right next to a field full of horses, who went absolutely frantic. What kind of entitled shit-for-brains does that?

This is the most entertaining thread I've ever read on mumsnet. 😁If you're enjoying it as much as me and haven't already... Report this thread and ask mn to move it to classics.

FenceSplinters · 02/08/2021 22:12

Bloody hell. He is the ultimate CF.

No I can't get it to work on the app.
That was to @polmuggle about watching the thread

Serves the CF right.

Placemarking. Far too invested in this now. It better not turn out to be a troll thread.
Do you understand how 'watch this thread' works?

Very near neighbour is a journalist with the P&J. Another Neighbour is a reporter with the BBC and they are always looking for a story.
Montrose man becomes unlikely heart throb.

I honestly don’t care if it is. It’s provided hours of entertainment over a boring weekend.

I don't think this is a wind up but I genuinely won't be bothered if it is. We've had laughs, recipes, cast a film and have a pitch ready for Dave. Not to mention, we've done carveries and Montrose tourist board a massive favour. Ford Rangers are buggered though ...

Elmrosie · 02/08/2021 22:00

@Trudij123

Smurfmonkey - he followed up with “if you know what I mean” and a wink - no way was he talking about towing capacity
Exactly! He was quoted as follows:

CF - I don't really use it offroad. It's a beast though. The pulling power if you know what I mean. Laughs.

The twat.

@WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll

I wouldn't put it past CF to whinge to the Police about some woman impounding his car. However OP already told them about it...

Yes, it is a bit "Waaaaaaaaaaaahh, Mummmmeeeeeeeeee - Simon broke my doll when I hit him over the head with it!!!!!"

That's why a lot of us advised the OP to keep the police updated with information.

@BlueEyesWhiteDragon did you inform the police of the loitering people over the last couple of nights in the end? If not I would definitely be giving them a quick call to keep them updated of this evenings events maybe without your DBs Oscar worthy performance just a simple "CF finally got in contact and wanted to come at 5pm, I said I was out but was available at 7.30pm. He turned up at 5 regardless but nobody on the premises had access to the keys and he was told to come back at 7.30. He hasn't returned this evening butyou have been available."

Night night sleepy girl

Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Once there was a way
To get back home
Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles await you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Once there was a way
To get back home
Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Ludo with Linekar?

LongTimeMammaBear · 02/08/2021 21:56

I think I’d be telling him a set time for tomorrow, that you can’t wait around for I’m not leave gate unlocked and also advise about the FC possibly needing access with consequences if his car is not moved.
