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!

Might be the builders back getting tools etc if they left in a hurry 🤞🏻🤞🏻

As a distraction until we hear the next instalment, does any remember the pair of entitled arsewits on Grand Designs who built an extension using the wrong bricks and the London Philharmonic were trying to get them to knock it down?

diddl · 28/07/2017 14:48

I also wouldn't approach them. They've had notification from planners & presumably know not to use the door or move the rubble(?)

What is there to say?

If they think that they are allowed to use the garden (through the window when it get's put back??!!), then they'll need to go through solicitors.

Hope everything is ok. I hope you have gone to your NNDN, Personally I wouldn't answer to door while there are two of them, possibly angry and you are alone. Even with 1000 mners waiting with anticipation, it's not really helpful it that situation.

BaDumShh · 28/07/2017 14:48

Another one saying ring the planning woman on the mobile number she gave you.

EmmaJR1 · 28/07/2017 14:49

Still shamelessly place marking - I need to know what the CFN have to say for themselves!

Dancinginthemidnight · 28/07/2017 14:50

I'm going to make a coffee and I'm hoping by the time I come back there will be an update.

TenForward82 · 28/07/2017 14:50

I'd be round there like a shot!

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 28/07/2017 14:51

YY to Grand Designs entitled wankery. They always seem to get away with it though.

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:51

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:52

Bejazzled · 28/07/2017 14:52

This is tense

troodiedoo · 28/07/2017 14:52

I've eaten a box of flapjacks now feel a bit sick.

CatsCatsCats11 · 28/07/2017 14:53

Ooooooo I'm dying to know what they will say to you!

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:53

Everyone on grand designs seems smug and wankery to me!!

choccoffeegeek · 28/07/2017 14:53

Have you spoken to them OP??? Waiting on tenderhooks.....

MyCalmX · 28/07/2017 14:54

I wasn't going to place mark but now they're home...

Laiste · 28/07/2017 14:54

Oh bloody hell. Why did i check up on this? I've got things to DOOOOO!!

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:55

Must get off sofa and look after dcs ...... but noooo!

EvelynWardrobe · 28/07/2017 14:56

I'm actually at work. I have achieved NOTHING today.

AristonAndOn · 28/07/2017 14:56

Getting car sick on my long journey to the seaside because I keep checking for updates 😂🤢

MorbidBibliomancy · 28/07/2017 14:56

Just spent half an hour catching up and composing a rundown of recent developments to send to DP while he's at work. He's just as invested as I am.

Definitely call the planning lady.

gingergenius · 28/07/2017 14:57

@EvelynWardrobe me neither!!!

festivefucker · 28/07/2017 14:57

Worried about lack of update from op , hope she's ok they could be aggressive and she's alone

StressExpress · 28/07/2017 14:57

Been trying to keep up with this while travelling for work and eating through my data and running down my battery, just got on bus with charging and WiFi - never been so happy Grin

Hope CFN have come back and realised their mistake but definitely keep safe OP!
