To start a new thread about bollards on the Isle of Wight

[Mrsdavidcaruso]

OK new thread will post on this after 5pm when bollards are up

All hail to mrsdavidcaruso, queen of the parking threads. I salute you.

How did I miss this before today.?

Can't wait for updates.

One car has gone OH had gone out for a takeout for us and BIL and SIL.

There was a knock on the door and BIL went out with the doodah thingy and let someone out - it was a male tenant with a black car so not bin lady.

Anyway we have having a bit of a party, fish and chips and the Voice
is the order of the night now

Right one down 2 to go. Would put money on it the bin lady is going to drag this out..

Hurray, mrs David, hope the others will be gone very soon :) it's a day of good things happening.

What did the black car guy say? did he used the word sorry?

Well done having nerves of steel mrsdavid

Glad you're not on your own. Well done though.

I love a happy ending!

Not sure what he said BIL did tell OH who just said twat - I am keeping out of it

Can't wait for bin lady to have to come and humbly ask for her car to be freed. Hope you are ready with your best smug smile OP

Just to think all this could've been so different if the rogue parkers, once they knew they were rogue, had said they were sorry they'd been mislead etc etc

Enjoy your home party OP.

Bet bin lady will ensure she has had a drink tonight and cannot move her car etc etc.

I've followed your thread MrsD but didn't have much to input. Hope it all gets sorted for good by tomorrow, you don't need this stress.

Yup, Enrique, if these people weren't rude and intrusive you wouldn't need to find a way to protect yourself from them.

You and your dh are legends!

MrsD, hope you don't get too much stress from bin lady I'm not marking my spot, oh no!

OMG only just found this thread today!
You are my hero!

I have abandoned my family to read both threads Bin woman is not going to be happy to have to come with her tail between her legs and ask to be let out.

Can't believe the cheek of them to still stay parked whilst you put bollards in.
I think a couple of days away Sunday Monday is in order. Bin lady will just keep her car there as she won't need it till Monday for work when she will just come and ask for it to be let out. If she asks now she will be defeated. If you go away when she needs it she will be defeated and stranded

I'm loving that FuckYouChris is on this thread. It's like the CSI/CSI Miami crossover episode

Together we stand!
We won't have stray horses in our fields, strangers' cars on our land or snotty train platform passengers sneering at us standing our ground.
However, we will show compassion to poor women trying to track down their straying DH(the bastard) This isn't any old net, this is Mumsnet.

yes, mrs david will wake up tomorrow to a horse and a load of stackable goats on her newly acquired land!!!

Please can you all stand outside and do the "smile and wave" as Bin woman angrily pulls away?

So, there's no way that they can park outside the bollards and still block you in is there?
