CFN patio doors, sangria, ken from the shop update

Hello all, most of you probably won’t know what I’m on about but for those of you that do, I feel that I owe you an explanation. A friend alerted me to a few threads where I’d been called a troll etc.

I’ve been through a very long process with NDN about the doors (which I had been told were going to be replaced/ wall reinstated etc)

I had also been told by my lawyer that all was fine.

The planning dept have been on my side, as per all previous threads.

This all seemed to be going ahead until I returned home to find half of my flat wall caved in.

I had to move out to stay with a friend. The whole thing has been a total nightmare and it is still not resolved. My wall has been partially fixed, the patio doors remain and no one has seen hide nor hair of NDN or the builders for months.

My flat is now uninhabitable for the foreseeable and there are legal implications, planning laws and listed building laws which all have to be agreed and adhered to before anything will be done, apparently.

This may be terribly outing but I am beyond caring. I was told not to post on here, however, the advice I received was second to none and so I thank you all for that.

My grandma has been unwell so I have been back and forth to Spain, seems like all is against me!

Sorry I disappeared for so long, but you can imagine how awful it has been, I’m in a better place now, so thought it was time to come back and let you know that I’m not some fantasist making up stories about doors 😂

Hope to see some familiar names on the thread!

It might be 4 years old but I too would love an update. I remember this summer well and the way the OP wrote the posts, we all were very involved. She made us laugh, cry, ache and miss her when she stopped posting. Whoever she was, she should have a blog.

So was I. I was just idly thinking of all the ...Zilla and CF posts there has been and how little it takes to bring the cheerleaders, followers and positively naive posters onto a thread about a totally fictional tale.

I still think about this thread and OP and Spangran.

I often wonder about you, too, Watty.

I really hope there's been some progress, and you've been able to move back in. The CF NDNs (and Bodgit & Scarper) are really due some bad karma. I was pinning my hopes on Vlad and Vanka being able to track them down, as I was quite convinced that next door was owned by dodgy Russian gangsters.

I can't believe it is now over a year since this update but I still want to know what happened!! This is the only thread that I've held on to!

Still thinking of you @patpat1 hope it all got sorted.

I was also a lurker! Thank you for update. How awful it has all been for you, do hope it is satisfactorily resolved before too long. Wishing you the best of luck with the continuing process!

Been on a CF binge - destroyed your FLAT? Hope things are much better now and that's why you haven't been back.

Really need to check dates, I read this the first time around and was thinking 'oh no, spangran is still not doing well' and 'bloody hell how long has op had to be away from home now, poor thing' then I saw Christmas mentioned Confused ignored, saw it again and looked at the date of post Blush bit slow on the uptake today!

Hopefully spangran is doing fabulously well, op is home again and neighbours have been caught and made to pay for all they have done

Poor Watty! I hope everything is resolving itself and you and Span Gran are doing well. I was addicted to your earlier threads (got very little done at work during that time) and I had hoped the problem was fixed.
