Facebook local page has been going mental. Do you want screenshots?

Would I have to remove everyone's Facebook names?

I don't have FB Sad I can see the post but not the comments

JackReacherReader · 05/09/2018 00:38

Hahah!! They want deeds!! Deeds to the road! One of them was like I PMd you days ago and you haven't responded then replied to her own comment 'oh no I messaged someone else.. please PM me' 😂 poor random Nigel having a pm about a road!

LilahTheTiger · 05/09/2018 00:40

I can't find this post 😭

Fstar · 05/09/2018 00:41

Very good read, i even had a look on land reg but too stingy to pay to view docs 😂

JackReacherReader · 05/09/2018 00:41

Greedy selfish non locals! I love it! And the Christmas shop owner! I want them to park there and get towed! Seems like the cottage owners will be installing bollards!

CuntyMcFuckerson · 05/09/2018 00:42

I NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH.

Is it privately owned or not? Show us the bloody deeds if you have them right there or I'll believe you're a lieing liar from Liarville, Liesylvamnia!

Bloody incomers stealing all the local spaces for local people. 😂

ReasonableLlama · 05/09/2018 00:42

ignore me it was the first one 🙄

LilahTheTiger · 05/09/2018 00:43

Mike has an air of confidence about him. I almost hope it is privately owned and they tow all the cars.

CuntyMcFuckerson · 05/09/2018 00:44

Yeah, I definitely want it to be private now after all the 'I've lived here 103 years so I'll do what I want' posts.

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 05/09/2018 00:48

I like the one who suggested asking Tim (?) who lives there and doesn't drive if they can use his space. Poor him getting dragged into it when he doesn't even have a car!

I do also want to know how many of the cottages haven't joined the consortium and what their parking status is, but it's even less of my business than it is of Richard's. Grin

ReasonableLlama · 05/09/2018 00:55

Bloody non-local lying liars! I'm half tempted to get the deeds myself!

WhatsGoingOnEh · 05/09/2018 00:56

I'm looking at the Lechlade on Thame FB pagecabd I cant see the thread, just loads of "what's on" posts about drama groups, etc?

It does look like a very lovely village. But where's the rant?

HemanOrSheRa · 05/09/2018 00:56

Oh this is good Grin. I like Amanda. I think she is a MNetter.

This won't end here. Years ago (before the days of tinternet) there was a dispute over the private lane running behind the houses where we lived. One old guy really got his dander up, blocked people in, put chains across the entrance/exit, one Saturday afternoon LAID DOWN across the exit and started patrolling the lane. It was EPIC Grin.

SneakyGremlins · 05/09/2018 00:56

There's two, you need the page with 2300 ish followers

ReasonableLlama · 05/09/2018 00:58

It's this page and is the 2nd one down after "what's that smell in the air"

OMG there's the best parking war in the next village over
WhatsGoingOnEh · 05/09/2018 00:58

Got it! Thank you :)

LilahTheTiger · 05/09/2018 01:01

Oh this is good grin. I like Amanda. I think she is a MNetter.

I like that she didn't know much but was willing but then always Mike pops up and said all the things "cheers Mike" 😂

SneakyGremlins · 05/09/2018 01:02

Just out of interest what IS the smell in the air

Lweji · 05/09/2018 01:10

Great thread.

The "What is that smell in the air tonight? It’s awful" post just adds to the fun.

ReasonableLlama · 05/09/2018 01:13

Despite smelling of chicken shit I feel like I want to move to Lechlade.

cheesemongery · 05/09/2018 01:23

Fucking Nigel - it's always you!! Sort the lanes out okay?

user1493423934 · 05/09/2018 01:25

haha love the last comment:
I only asked about a permit. Never thought it would cause this aggro.
Poor Pete!

cheesemongery · 05/09/2018 01:25

Lechlade on Thames? I assumed it was the Outer Hebrides (or the like!)

Grrrr Nigel.
