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!

Selfish gits! I so want to read the meet the cfn update!!

humblesims · 28/07/2017 19:39

AIBU that this is the only MN post I've read all day? None of the others getting a look in! My heart was actually thumping when OP heard sound next door! Think I might be a little over invested. Grin

They must have read this. And left the country.

KeepServingTheDrinks · 28/07/2017 19:41

I love the mental image I have of your slightly squiffy friend wavering her way over to the shop for more plonk and a bagfull of gossip. If you stop seeing shopkeeper very soon and then we start getting posts from username "StillOpenAllHours" or "ArkwrightsLongLostSon" then we'll know that he's succumbed!

Catlady45 · 28/07/2017 19:41

omg ! we need another thread !

Vango · 28/07/2017 19:41

Actually, having given it a bit more thought, Mrs cfn is definitely Anna Chancellor.

AsMuchUseAsAMarzipanDildo · 28/07/2017 19:43

Just caught up...OP your flat sounds an almost identical layout to somewhere I used to live in Devon. I'm guessing there's a lot of these type of buildings about. Ours was a converted church reading rooms with the freehold held by the National Trust....so I wouldn't have even considered changing a door knocker without the appropriate permissions.

ChrisPrattsFace · 28/07/2017 19:43

Get the next post started OP!

duxb · 28/07/2017 19:43

Now I'm just shamelessly placemarking for the resolution.

I'm still absolutely baffled by their actions.

Wattyyyy · 28/07/2017 19:44

So was mine humble

She's still in the bloody shop.

HSMMaCM · 28/07/2017 19:45

She's setting the shop keeper up with an MN login

gingeristhenewblack43 · 28/07/2017 19:46

These 3 threads have made my day Grin hope your friend has some goss from the shopkeeper! Wine

HamptonWick1974 · 28/07/2017 19:47

Time for a 4th thread please OP!

MissFitton · 28/07/2017 19:47

Is your mate Tamzin Grieg Wattyyy? She should be

SabineUndine · 28/07/2017 19:48

Watty, have you practised hoisting your bosom? Just in case the neighbours pop round? I think you should.

MBDBBB · 28/07/2017 19:48

Unless the shopkeeper is in cahoots with CFN and has taken friend hostage...

Rubyslippers7780 · 28/07/2017 19:48

4th thread required...

changemyname1 · 28/07/2017 19:48

This is the thread that just keeps on giving isn't it.

Wattyyyy · 28/07/2017 19:48

AsMuchUseAsAMarzipanDildo

Ohh very similar, I won't say where but I'm not too far away from there I don't think there's any point in trying to preserve my identity anymore but I'll persist nonetheless

How are your cats coping?

frenchfancy17 · 28/07/2017 19:52

Oh I CANNOT wait for them to come home! !!

Dibbles1967 · 28/07/2017 19:53

This is EPIC - Feel bad for you OP, it's got to be nerve wracking not knowing if CFN will drop by.

I was supposed to be going out this evening but just phoned DP & asked him to bring wine & kettle chips instead.

PeppaPigTastesLikeBacon · 28/07/2017 19:56

Phew. Just caught up. How dare work and dd's bed time get in the way!

The rubble is probably still out the front as they probably expect you to clear it given that they have had to pay for the access to your garden Grin

Next thread please!

Wattyyyy · 28/07/2017 19:57

marcia DCats are in hiding! They know something's up and will definitely not be going outside now! (I presume you're referring to my thread about letting them out, haha!) They are both black so may get mistaken for the bird!!
