Don’t get me wrong I’m a lovely neighbour, if I can help my neighbours out anyway that I can I do. Next door have had some work done on their house, they had a skip on their drive which meant no room for both their dustbins, so whilst the skip was there they put both their big green & black dustbin on my drive ( which was totally fine ) we get on & logically it made sense ( I didn’t expect them to knock & ask if it was ok ) as my drive isn’t being used as I have no car & like I said I’m not unreasonable & logically of course this made sense as there isn’t anywhere else they could have put them except the pavement ( which is clear for me to see ) Work to the house has now finished, the skip has gone, bin men have been & emptied bins today, I put the bins out last night ( which I put theirs out too if they haven’t already done so ( and they do the same for me which is handy ) it’s just a case of who does it first does both bins & this includes bringing in bins back to original place. Like I said absolutely no dramas re this in the past. Well today they have been out & brought both their empty bins & plonked them back on my drive ! My side living room window looks onto my drive & it ain’t pretty looking at 4 huge bins 😡 I usually move my 2 bins further up my drive so that they aren’t visible out of my window but now I can’t do that because theirs are there. They have had extensive work done to their house ( extensions ) so room is tight in their garden but thats not my problem. So basically their house looks all pretty with no big horrible smelly dirty bins in the front garden on their micro drive ( my house is really pretty too) but now I’m left with the view of a line of 4 big smelly dirty bins from my side living room window. I want to go out & manoeuvre the bins around their cars back onto their micro drive but worry that I will look pathetic. Like I said it really wasn’t an issue at all them putting the bins there whilst they had the skip as it was totally a logical thing to do, but I presumed that when they brought the bjns back in from being emptied, that they would put them back in the tiny space on their drive where they always have been! The cheeky fuckers are now thinking it’s totally ok to just try to plonk them on my drive for eternity aren’t they???

The eyebrows being on the window made me laugh Grin I love that you included them on the diagram Grin

prettypetal · 20/10/2017 14:05

@Tamatoa well what can I say. Waking up to this delight has truly made my sick days off work less shitty. I love the colours, the simplicity of the drawing, the one of you lying in the shallow grave was just superb. Of course you now have our sympathies now we can actually see what sort of horrors are inevitably in store for you. You have my blessings & for sure we will miss you here with art skills such as that, not to mention the short poem... completely blew me away. I am truly happy that I inspired you to produce such thoughtfulness for us all to see 💖

@whiskyowl no I don’t have a secret MN past / double life. But I will definitely continue to express my life troubles with such detailed diagrams seeing as though it makes everybody so happy : )

Bit late but outstanding diagram. Fantastic use of colour and very erm... expressive labels. Loved it!

prettypetal · 20/10/2017 14:20

#BINGATE day 2 face pressed against window waiting for more action. I’m starting to feel that sadly there will be no more dramas. Polystyrene trap is still in place. Excitement amongst us all will now be dwindling but the next bin day will be the true test of all time! P.S my face actually does look like this I reckon. I’m going to stop milking this now unless I have anymore important information to share. I am how ever waiting for a diagram of the clarinet & the wasted route @buckeejit had to take due to that thoughtless teacher wasting precious day time hours..... @buckeejit ... it’s now over to you & we are all waiting 🙌🏻

A poet, too? You spoil us!

If it's any consolation, you would never have survived your sunburn. LOL

But for people who think that cats are hard to please - just look at the satisfaction on Killer Kitty's face. All you have to do to make a cat happy is let it torture you.

Is that so hard?

I didn't realise you lived in Royston Vasey. Grin

I'm sure that there are great horrors updates ahead.

prettypetal · 20/10/2017 17:16

@SchadenfreudePersonified but I can see why the face window pic I posted would suggest that I did live there 😂

Grin I thought I saw a family resemblance . . .

SchadenfreudePersonified · 20/10/2017 18:28

Asfar as I am aware Foxtrot there was no further update.

That was a truly great thread. We shall not see its like again . . .

prettypetal · 20/10/2017 19:09

I have another dilemma regarding the back of my house. I’m not so sure that it has anything to with CFN though as it’s not their land, but the bin station they wanted to claim wasn’t their land either mind so who knows?! If this SHIUATION riles me even more so over the weekend I may start another thread ( as it’s a separate issue ) but for sure I will illustrate my frustrations once again & put in the heading ‘ diagram included ‘ so keep your eyes peeled folks. This one is a mystery so far but it’s very odd behaviour I’m sure you will all agree.....

YES!!!

Redred2429 · 20/10/2017 21:03

This is really helping defuse my anger every night for the past 2 weeks my neighbour has been moving my doormat to there door (it's a flat ) so after sitting with dp and his friends I have moved a chair to my front door and I'm sitting having a vodka at the door as they are due home soon and I'm going to catch them through my peep hole my dp and his friends are calling me the door mat Mafia but thank god someone else understands my frustration at neighbour!!

SchadenfreudePersonified · 20/10/2017 21:07

Oh Roysten Vasey isn’t that bad

So I've heard Scootin;

I believe there is even an anthem

We come from Royston Vasey
The place they call the "Haunt"
The natives think it's great
But other people don't.

scootinFun · 20/10/2017 21:15

Lol schadenfreude

prettypetal · 20/10/2017 21:23

@Redred2429 catch the cheeky fuckers I would. Definitely the best course of action you’ve taken there, enjoying your Friday eve with your vodka AND undertaking surveillance duties through the spy hole. I like your form of multitasking. If you catch the bastards shame them and tell them that they will be put on the thread. I would be livid. Jeez since these dark nights have come in there’s all sorts of CFN shit going down... what is it with these people?! And if you feel brave enough .... we need a diagram so we can see the true extent of this shifty behaviour.... thankyouplease.

OP posts:
Redred2429 · 20/10/2017 21:30

As soon as I know catch them pretty I will update you dp refuses to let me super glue the mat down so keyhole spying and vodka drinking and kindle time is defo the way to go x

CarpeVitam · 21/10/2017 14:24

Well this (and the Hairzilla) thread have kept me thoroughly entertained!

I probably need to get out more! 🙄

As do you lot!! 😜

daisyboooo · 28/07/2018 10:58

Ok so who remembers #Bingate? .......

They did it again, I had to put my bin back on their micro drive Confused

ChasedByBees · 28/07/2018 11:06

Are you the original poster? It took them a while to do it!! I would jut go and ask why they are putting their things on your property and ask them not to. It doesn’t take any confrontation just assertive pleasant boundary setting.
