NAR appreciation and crazy parking lady thread 2

Just thought I'd start another thread as the other one looks like it will fill up soon! NDN has knocked again at NAR's house with no reply. I think she may be getting the message!

Can someone link the old thread as not sure how to do it.

Thanks

Slurping Pinot Grigio and waiting (impatiently) for up-date.

FuckyouChris your ex NDN is great! Grin

KitKat1985 · 20/02/2015 19:08

FuckyouChris that's a great story!

Getting rather impatient now for update. [Taps foot].

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 20/02/2015 19:10

I'm glad it passed the time :o

It was a very long time ago, think he might still be single but he did have a mullet.

Nannyplum2015 · 20/02/2015 19:14

Sorry for the late update, I had a friend over that kept on chatting! I didn't see if ndn was spoken too or not buy she's been unblocked and is in her own space! Hooray!

Marking place (sorry on phone so bookmark doesn't work).

Wish we had your NAR we've had parking issues in the past. Once we had a car parked across the drive, DH asked neighbour (who has own drive but about six cars) to move so we could get in. They did, waited for us to pull in and then parked across blocking us in with a cheery "knock if you need to go out".

I was spitting mad but DH said let's see if it becomes a problem rather than kick off the first time as it looked as if they had guests round. They haven't done it since but I'm still silently outraged at the cheek of it.

Hooray indeed!

APotNoodleandaTommy · 20/02/2015 19:17

Hooray!!!

Nannyplum2015 · 20/02/2015 19:17

Sorry if it's a bit of an anti climax!

Terrible time to invite your friend round! Are you going to collar NAR and ask what happened?

Nanasueathome · 20/02/2015 19:18

nanny, you still need to speak to NAR and get a full update for us
We have. All been waiting patiently and this surely cannot be the end,,,,,,,,

Pishedorf · 20/02/2015 19:18

fuckyouchris that's an amazing story! Did your NDN take the wall down eventually?

Nannyplum2015 · 20/02/2015 19:19

I will go over and ask what happened, just give me a few minutes.

...And they all lived happily ever after.............. Grin

Well at least until NDN was a cunt again.

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 20/02/2015 19:21

He actually took it down that very same day, with a very strict instruction that next time it would be breeze blocks and quick drying cement.

They never parked there again.

And now to the op!

Spadequeen · 20/02/2015 19:24

Happy I was wrong

Lweji · 20/02/2015 19:26

Not parking related, but Stillyummy reminded me of a similar story.

I was on a bus that made a right turn (continent) to a two way fairly narrow but always busy street. Incoming traffic was almost at a stand still. As the bus turned in, an incoming taxi was on our lane, going the wrong way. Almost between the bus and the incoming taxi a space became available, but the bus driver pushed forward, and kept pushing, so that the taxi was forced to reverse all the way to the nearest street on our right (probably where it came from). I almost cheered the bus driver.

But, Stillyummy, you should have gone out of the car to rest your bladder.

Don't worry about it being an anti climax, I'm just pleased it didn't end up with someone dead under the patio!

bumbleymummy · 20/02/2015 19:38

Ha! Glad she's back in her place. Looking forward to hearing what happened :)

youarekiddingme · 20/02/2015 19:46

Yay - a productive ending!

feel free to fill us in if anything else happens!

ScrumpyBetty · 20/02/2015 19:47

Thanks for the update Nanny. Tis a joyous thread! Let's hope it's a lesson learned for NDN and may NAR and POONAR live long and prosper.

ApocalypseNowt · 20/02/2015 19:48

Hope she stays there!

SoupDragon · 20/02/2015 19:50

Yay!

KatieKaye · 20/02/2015 19:52

My former neighbours instructed their removal lorry to park right across my drive, thus leaving theirs free. Confused

After asking the guys to move it to let the car out - they promptly moved it back into place! asked again and they just stayed put. At this point, I admitted defeat, went inside and phoned the head office of the removal company and explained that while I was sure they always instructed their staff not to block neighbours, this crew was refusing to move the lorry.

Ten minutes late, the entire crew, and their still-empty van were recalled. It was over two hours before another van arrived.

Ledkr · 20/02/2015 19:52

Go on then op off you go to find out what happened
