I'll start by saying I am absolutely furious. So bear with angry spelling and grammar.

We are incredibly lucky and live on a marina on a river. It's very beautiful. On the river are temporary moorings for riverboats. This is lovely. Some people have unofficial 'permanent' moorings and have made their gardens pretty and mow the grass. This is nice.

3 weeks ago a shiny new boat showed up directly opposite our house. It's a lovely boat, nice to see out of the window.

Yesterday THEY PUT UP A THREE PANEL OVER SIX FOOT FUCKING FENCE. See pic.

Would I be unreasonable to burn that fucker to the ground and also put a hole in his stupid boat?

My plumber is the loveliest man in the world APART FROM MY DP, and married with two presumably beautiful children. I am not in love with the plumber. Honestly. But do tell us about yours?

AIBU to think Ofsted. reports and school league tables should show how many pupils have been kicked off their courses due to poor mock exam results? Sixth forms are rejecting pupils after they've one year.

MipMipMip · 15/07/2017 13:21

Any news OP?

PreppedForDiagrams · 25/07/2017 22:06

No. Damn thing is still there, and he's added a panel. Dreadful woodworking twat. Have set DP on phoning planning again tomorrow as I'm finding it tricky to call from work.

I can't believe he's still getting away with this. OP any change?

PreppedForDiagrams · 25/09/2017 23:38

It's still there and he's put fucking fairy lights along it.

Can you rearrange them to spell something whimsical like twat ? Wink

Logans · 03/10/2017 03:27

If they are moored permanently how are they getting rid of waste water etc?

I kind of assumed boats were like caravans and had those cassette things you empty. But who knows. People who can be Fencewankers and Broomwankers are probably capable of pretty much anything.

Water from the sinks / washing machine goes straight into the river. The toilet will have some form of tank which needs to be emptied either by being carried to an emptying point if it's a small one, or if a large tank it gets pumped out at a mooring with the facilities.

Logans · 03/10/2017 03:28

Your last picture showed a pot of paint in front of the fence OP. Perhaps you need to borrow some and make an early start on his fence 😁

Logans · 03/10/2017 03:29

What the hellos BROOMWANKER playing at with the table?!

Hoorah!!

Agustarella · 01/03/2018 17:17

YANBU. It looks like a Monet painting with a Homebase fence photoshopped in. Totally incongruous. Surely nobody could blame you if it got mysteriously swept away in high winds?

Agustarella · 01/03/2018 17:18

Oops, just RTFT and it's sorted, congrats!

Maryz · 01/03/2018 17:23

I remember this from last year.

I have just re-read from the beginning, chuckling. I'm delighted to see it, gone Grin

rascallyrascal · 01/03/2018 17:26

Hooray!!!

TellsEveryoneRealFacts · 01/03/2018 17:30

I actually thought of you last week. This is good news!

Thunderpunt · 01/03/2018 17:33

I remember from last year - hooray, doesn't it look lovely again without those hideous panels. Congratulations OP, enjoy the view
