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.

Electric wire fence with warning sign in front of the door? 😜

Come on MNHQ! Bring back the op.

Why? Has she been banned?

Op hasn't been banned
On thread 7 now I think

I'm a bit lost. Has the OP gone?

We're on thread 8 now:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/2993916-CFN-SpanGran-has-landed-thread-8?pg=1&order=

And there was me wondering how I was going to fill my non working/sleeping hours now that I have completed all 7 series of PLL, needn't have worried

Until @WhatIsThisWatt creates thread nine I'm resurrecting this thread.

That's right NewDaddie is back and bigger and better than ever.

This is a zombie ship thread and I'm the captain. All aboard for the last 250ish posts.

Now that we've established that Idris Elba will play the adult NewDaddie we need to think about who will play the younger NewDaddie for the all important flashbacks. The world will want to know what important events led to the creation of enigmatic antihero that is NewDaddie.

Two serious points.

I genuinely don't get why the CFNs are anathema.

Playing devils advocate here... Barry and Julie aren't dangerous criminals and if they can establish a right to the Garden then why can't they share it?

Mumsnet seems to always subscribe to the 'mine mine mine' & 'I was here first' grabby grabby philosophy makes me wonder if it's the parents or the children posting sometimes.

Can someone please fill me in ! I'm clearly late to the party and have no idea what all this is about ?!?

Yawn phewdaddie .

Youcant The summary is here:

The bit about me is lies but the rest of it is pretty accurate.

I genuinely don't get why the CFNs are anathema.

Just how sleep deprived are you newdaddie??

1. it's not their garden. Opening patio doors onto a garden does not make it yours.

2. that's a listed building they've just knocked a ruddy great hole in.

3. they've ignored the stop notice and disposed of the brickwork they're going to need to put back as close as possible to how it originally was.

Did you mean to be a GF?

Did you mean to be a GF?

Its fairly obvious hes doing this to wind people up.

Sorry, its not obvious I think its fair to conclude hes doing this to try piss posters off.

Didn't realise there was some of this thread left! Is it wrong of me to clutch hold of the remnants of Thread #4, in the absence of Thread #9? and at the same time!

Yes, I figured, hence the variation on the classic 'did you mean to be so rude?'!

Thank you that was very helpful.

As an aside how do you highlight the OPs posts ?

newdaddie by your previously stated criteria if you were my neighbour, because I lived in a house that was once a stable, I could expect to come home and find you'd stashed a little pony in my living room

AIBU to feel lost without thread #9 ?

@newdaddie well re:
Playing devils advocate here... Barry and Julie aren't dangerous criminals and if they can establish a right to the Garden then why can't they share it?
For that they would need to agree to PURCHASE a right to use the garden from the person who currently owns it. How is it ok to simply take things?
Sure, once upon a time we took land from wildlife. But this is where we are now. If you happen to be a landowner but all you own is a small private walled in garden where you feel safe, you shouldn't have to sell some of it off/a right to use it off to some strangers just because they broke the law and damaged a listed building to create a potentially dangerous doorway that could, possibly, cause the wall around the doorway to fall into it if its not properly lintel-ed

@EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard

no because that'd be ridiculous.

and as much I'd secretly want to do that I doubt very much that I could convince a judge to agree with me

@flowergrrl77

Actually no.

The reason why is caveat emptor. All land disputes are case by case and a judge would decide whether or not compensation is required or not based on the merits.

If OP was never entitled to exclusivity in the first place then she (possibly) would not be entitled to compensation.

@newdaddie that is why OP double checked the legal side of the situation already. ;)

Enjoy your smugness!

I do not actually expect any change in the situation for potentially months now. Poor OP has to put up with an eyesore of a door along with the risk of a wall falling into her garden until someone is forced to restore what was lost (removed on purpose) which could even take years :( (sorry OP)
