Couldn't remember the title of the last one so thought that'd do!

No sign of them at all, went out and looked through and all the lights are off, definitely not in. WTF IS GOING ON????

kittifer you are a perfect candidate to do a What We Know So Far post!

Pleeeeeeeeeease!

OMG when are they going to show their faces!? This is better than the telly!

blueskyinmarch · 27/07/2017 21:19

Goodness they might have gone away though. We do that a lot with trusted workmen. Eek.

RubaDubMum89 · 27/07/2017 21:20

OP, I think it's time you mounted a search party and found the cheeky neighbours, I need to know how this is going to play out before bed time! How dare they not come back! maybe builders have done an underground bunker for them to hide in until it all blows over

waitingforthewaterwars · 27/07/2017 21:20

are they back yet?

Guepe · 27/07/2017 21:21

Practical solution for the future - why not install a door between your apparent and theirs, then seal up their former front door?

Shameless place marking

accidentalgrownup · 27/07/2017 21:21

⛺️ just setting up camp in your garden OP 😝

SylviaPoe · 27/07/2017 21:22

Someone mentioned earlier that there had been a disastrous end to the thread about the parking space with the raised kerb. Does anyone have a link?

Sorry for the derail.

SweetEnough · 27/07/2017 21:22

Knocks a hole through neighbouring garden wall, now there's more room in the shared garden for myself and my flamboyance of pink plastic flamingoes.

Missingthesea · 27/07/2017 21:22

Placemarking before going to catch up on the original thread! I hope it all gets sorted out without arguing forn CFN, OP.

Gingerandgivingzerofucks · 27/07/2017 21:23

Did the builders finish the new tacky plastic doors? One hopes the ndn's flt is not insecure/open?

AgentProvocateur · 27/07/2017 21:23

A pair of rich wankers bought an A Listed house in Glasgow's west end for 600k and demolished the whole thing. I think they've been ordered to rebuild as it was. www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/14287862.Investigation_launched_after_historic_A_listed_home_in_Glasgow_s_west_end_is_demolished_without_warning/

Babyiwantabump · 27/07/2017 21:23

Any update op?

SchadenfreudePersonified · 27/07/2017 21:24

but anyone ever find out what happened to the woman whose neighbours knocked down part of her wall and built two matching pillars in what seemed to be preparation for gates?

I remember that one!

I wonder what did happen.

mikeyssister · 27/07/2017 21:25

Indiana, ring the OPs posts on the first thread.

ChrisPrattsFace · 27/07/2017 21:25

I was thinking - that you should start looking at suitable trellising flowers Grin - so when they replace what will soon be a butt ugly wall, you can have some grow up and over it.
Cover the unholy mess that will be left!

1stDinkyDecker · 27/07/2017 21:25

lights chiminea and passes round rugs, it's getting a little chilly in the garden at this time of night.

I too think they may have gone away while the work was being done:0

I hope the Planning Officer has this first on his list.

We had an issue with some local planning, took eight years to sort out!

mikeyssister · 27/07/2017 21:26

Is your garden grass OP, or do you have flower beds?? Diagrams, with colour and descriptions please.

It'll keep you occupied while you're waitingGrin

HotelEuphoria · 27/07/2017 21:27

I honestly think they are young and very stupid. Have no knowledge of listed buildings and assumed that you put doors in to access the shared garden so they would too. Don't have much money so have used some cowboy their mate knows and are now shitting themselves.

Really I do, but only because no normal person with any level of intelligence or life experience would do this and think they could get away with it. Either that or they are non U.K. Nationals without any experience of our wonderful heritage and planning protection laws.

I hate cheeky fuckers but I can't possibly imagine anyone could be THIS entitled.

mineofuselessinformation · 27/07/2017 21:27

I might have missed it, but you have put obstacles up so they can't open the doors, haven't you?

MissFitton · 27/07/2017 21:29

I do hope though that the NDNs are horrible CFs who are going to get their comeuppence rather than clueless CFs who are in for a horrible, expensive and jail based shock. I accept there's no excuse really but it would be a nice opportunity to sort out some horrible fuckers rather than simply idiotic ones.

I've clearly thought about this too much. more than the NDNs did

BoneyBackJefferson · 27/07/2017 21:29

I would be out there chaining the doors shut.

PancakesAndMapleSyrup · 27/07/2017 21:29

Op did you get photos of the builders company that was on the glass? Jumped up shit needs a bollocking for what hes done!
