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

Will this play out during my journey to work? Hope so - then I can be all up to date before starting work. And Mrsd can get her garden back!

Ha!

I love your bil a little bit

Oh dear, what a tricky situation. Any explanation from her as to why she hadn't moved her car off your land when she was asked to? Or any apology for her behaviour?

Is it wrong that I just laughed out loud at the OPs latest update....

Totally missed the update from the OP. Bliss!

YESSS!!

Shame about the big work van . Long long is your BIL planning to be unavailable?

I havent spoken to her DH did but there was a bit of shouting - I can see her out the window on her mobile and pacing well at least it's not raining {yet} bit cold though

BIL still not picking up his phone

Awwwwwwwwww. I love your BiL. Hope he enjoys his fortnight holiday. Poor bin lady! Hope she was at least polite to you.

I was going to say I couldn't believe she would have the cheek to be so far in the wrong and then shout at your DH. But, actually having read all of your posts I can imagine she would have the cheek to shout and believe that she was in the right!

Well done, BIL

"Oh no, isn't it inconvenient when someone parks where they shouldn't? And then they disappear, ignore notes (with their car reg/flat number on) and can't be found?."

Oh I am starting to feel sorry for bin lady. Not that she doesn't deserve everything she gets but making her late for work seems a bit unkind. You want to hold on to the moral highground really if you can.

Mind you I object to the fact she left her car there all weekend just because she felt like it.

Is it wrong that my first thought this morning wasn't 'breakfast time, let's feed and clothe my babies' but 'ooh has bin lady come back? Let's hide from babies with my iPad somewhere where no one can find me.'

Yeah!!! I'm sure I'm not the only one who is smiling a bit!!

It would be a shame if your bil goes AWOL for a while!!

Bin Lady is very lucky that you didn't have her car towed away, its what would happen in most big cities.

Good, if bin lady had been rude once, then I'd think you were being a bit cruel, but hers has been a campaign and unless she realises you are going to continue to have your chain yanked that campaign will continue.

Snort at JohnnyDeppsFutureWife :o

Nope, not the only one!

Johnny, you are not alone!

Pooroldcat, I really don't know how much more notice op could have given her! Bit of a risk leaving it until Monday morning really.

She's really stupid as well as arrogant.

Fancy leaving your car where it might get accidentally or deliberately blocked in if you need it.

And as for knocking at 7.30am. I was still asleep at 7.30am - just. If she'd knocked she'd have woken me up and I wouldn't have answered until I was up, washed, dressed and fed - so round about now. Except I have to go out too so I don't have time to faff about unlocking bollards for someone who should have come over the weekend.

Hee hee!! She had plenty warning and all weekend to move her car. I don't have one ounce of sympathy for her at all (I may have parking issues at home too!!)

She doesn't have to be late for work - she can call for a taxi. Or take a bus. Or walk. What she shouldn't have done was presumed that the notice to leave and not park on the land didnt apply to her.

Mwah ha ha har!

Yay! I hope your bil has a nice loooooong sleep! She's going to have to walk to work!
This thread is genius!

Yes, she's had all weekend and yet she left it and expected to just be able to pick it up when it was convenient for her. If she's that bothered about being late for work then why doesn't she get a taxi?
