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

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.

I'm really going to have to take stuff out out of the oven before it burns.

Will pick up tomorrow to find out if OP's friend has discovered anything about the DFNs from the corner shop guy, whether the DFNs have come home, whatever.

Alas it's the weekend when NO COUNCIL OPERATES so if the builders come back and the DFNs steal in and completely break down the place OP will be on her own. But no! she said up thread she had a mobile number for the planning officer.

ALL IS NOT LOST.

I can't believe we are so excited about seating the return of someone from a shop...Grin! My dh is away out, I'm hoping he's not back any time soon as frankly it will just bug my happiness Wine

How many countries we got watching this? So far I have counted UK, Germany, Italy, now with grandma Spain

WeeM · 28/07/2017 20:39

Seating??? Awaiting I think that should be Confused

isambardo · 28/07/2017 20:39

Ok, kids in bed, glass of wine in hand, I'm ready for these CFNs to get home!

Still snorting to myself about PARKLIFE too, genius 😂🍷

TesticleMeElmo · 28/07/2017 20:39

Ok, having read through the previous threads (which has taken bloody ages, btw) I'm now place marking as well. I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!!!!

EyeRollChampion · 28/07/2017 20:39

This is my fave thread ever! I'm horrible so hoping desperately that your cretinous CFN get hit with a massive fine and/or a prison sentence and/or burned at the stake. Wine may be playing a part here.but I've had a shitty week so Wine

Wonders71 · 28/07/2017 20:39

When we're CFN last seen? OP I hope there is no newly dug soil in your garden? May have to send round Sherlock!

4th already?? This must be setting some kind of record!

Ahickifromkinicki · 28/07/2017 20:42

I would hide if I were them. It would too excruciating to face OP/council/other neighbours.

EyeRollChampion · 28/07/2017 20:42

Oh and the rude builder folk too!!! Where is the pitchfork and torch emoji??

My also invested DH was just offering his services as moral support (he's rather solid, a vicar and former lawyer) when something went crash upstairs and he sent me up to investigate, so you're probably best off without him Grin (it was only a suction toy holder giving up)

LouiseBrooks · 28/07/2017 20:44

I've skimmed through every thread since yesterday and am now reduced to reading OP posts only. I can't keep up!

I've read some astounding stuff on MN but this is the best thread ever!

(Sorry OP, it must have been so stressful for you.)
