CFN patio doors onto my private garden thread #3

Okay I thought I'd start this for when they inevitably show their faces!!

Sorry all the threads have different titles Confused

I have a slight update - I managed to catch the nice neighbour at the other side (I think he'd heard the commotion and was loitering about waiting for me Grin )

He was gobsmacked! Apparently he's lived here for thirty years and has never heard anything like it. I told him I'd keep him updated and he asked if i wanted to come in for a cup of tea, I politely declined hahahah. Glad I now have a nice normal neighbour on my side!

You have to talk to them! How could you not?

InvisibleCities · 28/07/2017 14:38

OP don't get caught up in the thread excitement and do anything risky. Your safety and wellbeing are more important than providing updates!

Babyiwantabump · 28/07/2017 14:39

Don't be scared OP ! Ring the lady at planning

HashiAsLarry · 28/07/2017 14:39

Wonder if it's neighbours or cfbs.

Spookle · 28/07/2017 14:39

Thank you TheMaddHugger. Grin

peachgreen · 28/07/2017 14:39

I think you're very sensible not to engage unless they approach you. You're in the right and it WILL get sorted so you don't need to contact them.

Spookle · 28/07/2017 14:40

I wonder if it's the builders that have come back hoping to clear up while OP was at work..

MipMipMip · 28/07/2017 14:40

On a serious note ring planning. Whether it's CFN or the builders the planners wanted a word with them so let them months idiots have arrived.

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:40

It might be neither... blackbirds are quite loud and make a surprising amount of noise 🤞

mummyofmoomoos · 28/07/2017 14:41

This is the most nail biting series of threads ever- please keep safe OP, yet take no crap- Wine good luck!

MipMipMip · 28/07/2017 14:41

Let them know*

IloveBanff · 28/07/2017 14:41

I'm wondering what on earth caused the loud bang. Maybe they passed out cold on reading the note from the planning department.

canihaveacoffeeplease · 28/07/2017 14:41

Ahhhh the suspense!! OP come back! Are you ok?

iMatter · 28/07/2017 14:41

Blimey - this is tense!

I'm not getting any work done...Grin

TroelsLovesSquinkies · 28/07/2017 14:43

I'd go knock on the nice neighbors door and invite them to come in for a cup of tea and to give you some back up, bet they'd be in like a flash.

UnicornSparkles1 · 28/07/2017 14:43

Haha Evelyn that made me literally laugh out loud.

Hope everything is okay Wattyyyy and that they haven't knocked through into your sitting room!

marmaladeforme · 28/07/2017 14:43

Hope you're ok op...

lmer · 28/07/2017 14:43

Look after yourself op!

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:43

I know , I've done nothing but watch this thread now I'm eating peanuts for late lunch😊

Rachel0Greep · 28/07/2017 14:44

Stay safe OP, that is the main thing.

feathermucker · 28/07/2017 14:44

Stay strong OP! What a situation to be in. I'd probably be a bit wary to confront them, just in case they're aggressive etc.

YorksMa · 28/07/2017 14:44

Hope you're ok OP. I imagine it's very stressful if they're back. Keep calm, don't get into any rows with them. You hold all the cards.

IdoHaveAName · 28/07/2017 14:46

I wouldn't confront them. It's out of your hands now.

ScarletForYa · 28/07/2017 14:47

Hope they aren't disposing of the old stone!

They'll need that to rebuild the wall! Ring the planning people!

WatchingFromTheWings · 28/07/2017 14:47

Just read through all 3 threads! Shock

I'm supposed to be cleaning. I've done nothing!
