I can't believe we're on 7.

In need to go and catch up on the last couple of pages of 6.

Still no CFN OR ANYONE.

I'm thinking someone will be there tomorrow. HOPEFULLY.

When asking for places in the world to put on Trello, a pp waved from Mablethorpe. It just caught on @BreakfastAtSquiffanys

JamOrCreamFirst · 30/07/2017 17:18

I bow to you Shakey.

BringOnTheScience · 30/07/2017 17:18

Breakfast ... and there's a surprising number of us here with Mablethorpe connections!

TheLittleShirt · 30/07/2017 17:20

Can we please decide now what thread #8 will be called.

Allthebestnamesareused · 30/07/2017 17:22

CFN are in hiding now for sure!

SoPassRemarkable · 30/07/2017 17:22

I went for lunch today and got my phone out at the table to check on CFN progress which is most unlike me. Left the cafe, drove ten mins to a garden centre went to get phone out again for an update and realised I'd left it in the cafe.

Thankfully some one had handed it in.

Thanks all Blush

Has OP got stuck to the gorilla tape?

ClarindaDazzle · 30/07/2017 17:35

I went for a cupperty with my Mum in a café, told her all about CFN without mentioning how much time I had wasted reading all the threads and couple at next door table joined in. Then someone at the table on the other side of them joined in and before you could say CFN most of the tables were talking about it. We think CFN are dodgy developers.

mygrandchildrenrock · 30/07/2017 17:37

I live in Mablethorpe (and very nice it is too) do I need to do anything?!

Mummyoflittledragon · 30/07/2017 17:38

Breakfast

People have been posting which they're reading this from. One of the posters said they were from Mabelthorpe, probably on thread 6, I can't remember now. Anyway it's been joked about and picked up as a good thread title. Read the last few comments on thread 6.

Been updating DP on this thread. He told me I need a hobby

Is this not your hobby Wrangler?

I have to admit to being shocked that any property could be sold on without the buyers being made fully aware of any cock-up like this in the offing - surely it must be against the law to hide this info and not make all the grisly details known. I imagine you would be lucky to give away a property which has a ListedSwordofDamocles hanging over it.

I was also a tad surprised that the planning office people didn't secure the crappy doors themselves to prevent any evidence from going walkabout. You'd think they would keep heavy chains and padlocks some suitable ties about their persons for just such an occasion.

Still, even if the CFNs don't show up soon, maybe we'll have a planning update to look forward to . . . .

youarenotkiddingme · 30/07/2017 17:39

Checking in!
Had to do RL today but glad no CFN turning up and I didn't miss anything!

mygrandchildrenrock · 30/07/2017 17:39

BringOnTheScience do tell...

HerRoyalFattyness · 30/07/2017 17:39

eek. These move so fast I keep missing bits!

SchadenfreudePersonified · 30/07/2017 17:40

Bet none of you know that there's a road in Mablethorpe named after my great grandfather

"Science Road"? I've been down there.

Finn0802 · 30/07/2017 17:42

Finally caught up! First time replying/posting etc!
Good luck OP hope all works well and thanks for fab updates.

I thought I had CFN cutting down my tree even though I told them no but this takes the buscuit. I've been filling in DH as well! Flowers

rizlett · 30/07/2017 17:43

I'm getting extremely concerned at the whereabouts of the CFN's [B&J].

Was the second surreptitious visit by CFB perhaps used to brick both B&J behind a fake wall somewhere?

Was the extractor fan left on to cover up their wails of help and dry out the mortar fast?

Bluebellforest1 · 30/07/2017 17:43

Should we have a meeting of the "CFN thread, Mablethorpe Chapter?"

AristonAndOn · 30/07/2017 17:43

I think the Mablethorpe reference is because after waves from Croatia, France and Canada, I decided to wave from Mablethorpe....why not?! 😊

winglesspegasus · 30/07/2017 17:44

all these great songs and haiku should be compiled with an explaination of course and published.great talents all.
4 family members keep asking me whats going on

winobaglady · 30/07/2017 17:45

Maybe the CFNs took their dog to get groomed, and can't make it home as they're blocked in?
