Spanish grandma en route and friend still in the shop thread #4

[Wattyyyy]

I can't believe this is the fourth thread.

To summarise: CFN have seemingly done a disappearing act, my friend is now OUTSIDE the shop but still talking to the shop owner man.

I'm waiting on the wine I can see in her hand.

So glad your back and safe your a legend whatt and have dealt with a pretty shitty situation in good humour and loved all the updates
And it's also lovely to see that so many of us mnetters have gelled together and there's not been a witch hunt when what's disappeared and loving the role allocations off back to pour a gin
Can't wait for update from friend and shop etc

This shop across the road...it's not a local shop for local people is it?

They should be back now? Yes I had to change username but I didn't want anything deleted from these threads!

Aghhh. Thanks all who have said they were worried! We are fine!

You can still use Watyyy MNHQ have vanished all your previous nonCFN threads.

So relieved OP!

Dammit I really need to get to sleep. Will pick up on thread #27 in the morning I guess.

Wowzers, you watch a film and suddenly there's another 23 pages to read and a name change I can't keep up but loving this thread. How many more pages will there be when I wake up I wonder shamelessly placemarking in order to keep up.

This is the most exciting series of threads I have ever seen in my life!

I still can't see Op comments on thread 3 - help! I must know about the granny!!!

Can someone précis events since planner arrived?! Can't quite face trawling through now posts are reinstated!

Op did shopkeeper man know anything about cfn??

Phew! Glad you're back Watt. Just showing as a regular poster here not green.

This shop across the road...it's not a local shop for local people is it?

That crossed my mind ecumenicalmatter

Half-expected planning officials to be turned into scarecrows as the CFNs said "It's our garden now."

Glad you are ok OP 😘

Also with any luck the drilling Wattyyy heard from over the wall coming from NNDN will hopefully be the installation of a webcam with a direct link to MN.

So impressed to have such a thrilling CFN thread with its very own resident CFN. What are the chances?!

Dying to know what the planners said but was all removed when I got to it.

SchadenfreudePersonified Lets hope they don't sell snow globes!

@slimthistime alas, yes, the blessed Dame Margaret is no longer with us but I was thinking we were doing fantasy casting......so anyone's fair fame, surely?

Phew! I finally got to the end! Got home from no-wifi Norfolk Broads this evening, off to no-wifi Devon in the morning, read all of thread one and two and then three was just loads of removed posts by the OP :-( gutted to have missed the drama. Spent my whole evening reading MN!

I used to live in a grade 2 listed property that I rented from the local conservation officer (FIL). He had dreamed of restoring the property to it's original glory by removing electricity and installing gas lamps. He had to give up the job because he loved it so much that the actions pepole took broke his heart. :-(

Hope it all works out OP, sounds very stressful.

Or even fair game thanks Autocorrect

Oh goodness! I'm going to have to go back to end of thread 3 and reread (hoping OP's post show up for me now!)
This has taken a good hour of my evening!
I'm absolutely aghast that somebody would think it acceptable to do such a thing- when it is clearly someone else's garden- the absolute cheek- i have come this far and am so invested in how this plays out, no matter how many weeks/months it takes.
Hope you are well OP- my heart was in my throat for a while when all your posts went!
Hope the CFN appears soon and they eat humble pie (and apologise profusely)

Is there a cunning way to isolate out all OP's contributions, for my handy easy reading pleasure? Scrolling through each individual page twice is more than I can handle.

@LakieLady I used to love Matthew in Spooks! 😃
