Hello everyone, new thread as requested. hopefully MNHQ could be so kind (as they already have been) to verify that I'm the OP from the original four threads?

Sorry again about the title NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON ANYMORE but I will try to keep you all updated. I'll probably not be back till the morning but THANKS for all the support and nice messages Grin

EKL thread is amazing and so beautifully written!

Donttouchthethings · 28/07/2017 23:41

Whilst waiting, have started reading the EKL thread. Love the bit about the DS sitting on her lap with neither talking. She doesn't say how old the son is. In my mind, he's grown up! (I'm sitting here sipping cider and laughing to myself.)

As you were.

Sunshineandgin · 28/07/2017 23:41

Looking forward to Mondays update, it'll probably be thread 6 or 7 by then...

MarilynWhirlwindRocks · 28/07/2017 23:42

BTW, if anyone has Spain-based cab driver friends prepared to do a VIP morning airport run, I believe there's an irate pensioner and her paella pan packed and ready to dispense justice on her Granddaughter's behalf...

Can I stay and play in the secret thread?

And pretty please can I be Idris.

Waddlelikeapenguin · 28/07/2017 23:43

I have so many tabs open with new threads linked in these threads...what if all those threads have links to other threads Shock

BooksandSunandGandT · 28/07/2017 23:44

Goodness, does anyone else feel incredibly lucky not to have these neighbours??!! Reading this made me want to nip next door and gush thanks at mine for their general loveliness and total lack of cheeky fuckeriness...but obviously I couldn't because I have been glued to the screen for HOURS!!!

Tonight, I have read my 1st ever MN thread, posted for the 1st time and discovered yet another way to lose acres of time... Not sure this is an entirely positive development Hmm Ho hum, see you all in the morning for updates.

Leopardspie · 28/07/2017 23:44

Now off to read CFN parking wars thread 2 Wine

Just taking a seat. Brew or Cake anyone.

BlooBagoo · 28/07/2017 23:49

I thought we had CFN until I read this and the parking one yesterday! I guess I should be relieved that all we have to deal with is one garden fence randomly disappearing and then being replaced a couple of weeks later.

letsstickmyhandinthere · 28/07/2017 23:50

Shamelessly getting settled in Brew
Looking forward to tomorrows update OP

Staceypreston32 · 28/07/2017 23:52

Placemarking for the morning. Night all!

WeeM · 28/07/2017 23:52

Must sleep, so tired but now feeling drawn to the EKL thread as I feel I need to fill the void until CFN returns...

MaryStroppins · 28/07/2017 23:55

@whatisthiswatt if you do take legal action feel free to add a class action suit against the CFN's for thumb strain for all us phone users that have worn away our thumb joints reading all these posts!

I was supposed to decorate the utility room today and I didn't even make it to Homebase because of these CFN threads 😂

Gripping stuff.

DrEllie · 28/07/2017 23:56

Thank you for the EKL link Dances

That's better.

No.

Omg.. EKL? My life is now complete.

MarilynWhirlwindRocks · 28/07/2017 23:59

For PPs concerned that OP's friend is still AWOL:

(to save you scrolling back through Thread 4!).

Direct quote from OP:

"HI ITS ME THE OP

SO friend spent an absolute AGE in the shop for no other reason that to extract info from NSK (nice shop keeper)

He said that he has been seeing comings and goings for a while now and didn't know what to make of it. There's been an unmarked white van parked outside between the hours of 9 and 5 ish roughly (when I'm at work) and they leave for an hour each lunchtime. He knows the score! 😂

He said he has seen a young lady going in and out maybe 2 or 3 times, he thought she may be Chinese but couldn't be sure. I don't know how the hell my friend was there for as long as she was but that's all she got!

I do not know if this helps the situation or not." Shock
