[Mrsdavidcaruso]

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

enriquetheringbearinglizard I think I luffs you

Marjory, Enrique,Hampton

Yes! Do the smile and wave!

It's like an SVU/CSI crossover!

Love it

I'm a bit overcome now. Thankyou growing all round I reckon.
Can I interest anyone in a horseprinted bollard scarf?

Looking forward to the requests fir statements agsinst the chancer who let te flats with no parking!

DP and I used to play the CSI Miami drinking game. You have to have a drink any time DC:

• Puts his hands on his hips
• Reassures a child "we'll catch the guy who killed your parents"
• Reads a line [off a cue card, did everybody else notice that stupid eye-roll thing he did?] that, by rights should have been said by somebody else (typically the coroner).
• Slips his sunglasses down or off, in order to look significant.

We had to stop after a while because CSI:M was on a weeknight.

I liked him in Hudson Hawk, though.

This whole thing is so gloriously entertaining. I hope they give you their ll so much shit!

the missing horses will turn up tied to the bollards ......
that SO deserves a photoshop

Yes, MrsDC, has there been any update on the LL? Esp his reaction when he heard you now own the land?

Oh dear its been fun fish and chips, vimto and the voice. But nothing has happened on the parking front alas.

Will keep you all informed

I'm secretly pleased that bin lady has been blocked in!

Bin lady will probably knock at 1 am....

Is it just me that has an advert for a penguin bollard over there --> ?

I also think she will knock at some awful hour just to cause you the most inconvenience she can OP.

enriquetheringbearinglizard - do you work in advertising? If not you should.

Take the batteries out of your door bell if there are still cars there when you go to bed.

It's no good - I've lurked and lurked....

AND I DON'T WANT TO MISS BIN LADY!!!!!!!

Is it wrong that I am hundreds of miles away, waiting almost on the edge of my sofa for it to kick off on the IOW?

I reckon bin lady isn't planning on using her car all weekend in a bid to piss you off. I bet she knocks at 7am or earlier on Monday morning when she needs to get to work.

I also have an advert for a penguin bollard on my right now. Tee hee.

isisisis no, I never have worked in advertising, but I'd like to. I'm currently wanting to style bin woman's wheelie with a sticky back plastic mini cooper decal

and paint double yellows round it

Shamelessly marking my place

Pedant we didn't do it with drinks but dh and I would play a little game to see how many of his stock poses dc did before the opening credits rolled!

No movement from any of the parked cars but the owner of one of the cars that had not been there when we raised the bollards came to our front door shouting the odds - when I looked out the window I saw he was the partner of the woman who had caused all the problems in the first place with the 'extra parking space'

Anyway he had a right go shouting and swearing DH told him to go away
as he was scaring his DS (DS was actually fast asleep) and he was going to call the police. So the guy left, not sure where his car is parked though
but its not on my land so don't really care
