A(nother) thread to ask for conclusions or links to threads. Post your worst. Grin

My one is the No Parking sign and the mini car with a Santa ornament in. No idea what it was called but if a tone knows pretty please link. It was very funny.

So what's your mystery thread?

@SomethingPhishy

Yes! Thank you. I often think of this woman and hope she found happiness with him. It was also a largely positive thread.

Was the angry bauble neighbours the one that left the baubles around that the op found dog walk too?

I remember the threatening village but I know if I’m mixing two stories up.

birdiewoof · 01/01/2019 22:23

Does anyone remember the pooey pouffe from a few years ago 🤣

poglets · 01/01/2019 22:24

@Helipad

They did? Oh that's so lovely to hear. 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you. ❤️

I often wonder about the lady who was pregnant and was taking care of her niece as her sister had a breakdown. Her sister was also pregnant with twins and she was getting the twins when they were born too. She seemed so lovely and was coping amazingly with everything.

Helipad · 01/01/2019 22:28

poglet I loved the thread too and was so happy to see her update.

Would love to hear more if you mortal still read this ❤️

There was one absolutely ages ago where the OP was dating an African guy but was suspicious about his age and where he came from and was contacting the country of origin for birth certificate etc. I completely lost that thread and desperately wanted to find out how old he was etc.

covetingthepreciousthings · 01/01/2019 22:33

What happened to the Victorian safe that someone found in their attic? I don’t think they ever came back to tell us.....

Yes I remember that one too!

DesertSky · 01/01/2019 22:42

WereAllBladesArentWe - Me too, I was so invested last Xmas in that story. I think the last update was the OP was preparing to move house. Things got increasingly aggressive from the locals, the police were involved and she was worried they were reading the posts. She never returned to let us know what happened. I hope it wasn’t a troll...

ILoveChristmasLights · 01/01/2019 22:44

Birdie that one is in classics.

DesertSky · 01/01/2019 22:46

Ah the GEG was the best thread ever Smile

WhenOneDoorClosesAnotherOpens · 01/01/2019 22:50

What ever happened to the one where the OP lived in a village in Essex and someone(s) was dumping rubbish at her house and then suddenly the OP got an anonymous, threatening letter signed 'the locals' because they thought all the rubbish was the OP's and it was making the local dog walk look untidy or something.

Also, someone was sneaking around the OP's house at night and the CCTV never quite captured who it was. It all got a bit scary and then the OP disappeared.

Anyone know what happened?

nandaandm · 01/01/2019 22:54

There was a thread about a lady who worked in a shop, and a man had been in a few times, eventually gave her his card, she contacted him, think they went on a date. Would love to know how that continued

mountainlakes · 01/01/2019 22:55

What happened to the woman whose partner broke her leg and was threatening to do it again and she wouldn't call the police?

InsomniacAnonymous · 01/01/2019 22:56

mountainlakes the thread was deleted.

InsomniacAnonymous · 01/01/2019 22:57

mountainlakes sorry, should have said because it made no sense.

BirdieInTheHand · 01/01/2019 22:59

There was a young mum in wales whose husband had tragically killed himself. She later got together with an old friend and her ex-pils lost the plot.

She stopped posting to avoid the scrutiny but I think of her from time to time and hope she's happy Smile

DavedeeDozyBeakyMickandTich · 01/01/2019 23:00

verydonut that turned out to be a very strange troll apparently..

MulticolourMophead · 01/01/2019 23:19

I can't remember where I saw it, but pretty sure I saw something about Coats being OK, and that for a variety of reasons (including the possibility of a certain person reading the threads) details were not being posted. I'm stil keeping my fingers crossed, though.

HidingFromMyKids · 01/01/2019 23:19

DavedeeDozyBeakyMickandTich

Are you sure as she came back with an update not long ago. They had the little girl in their care and the OP was due soon.

Randomsunshineovermull · 01/01/2019 23:20

How about the one were all the neighbours were paying a ground rent but no such thing existed?

HidingFromMyKids · 01/01/2019 23:21

I also think of Coats often. I saw a thread specifically not linked to the original that said the plan had been pushed back but still hoping to go ahead but it went quiet. Was there another update I missed where she had actually managed it?

mikado1 · 01/01/2019 23:22

Two that stick in my mind are: poster realised dh/p was getting up in the middle of the night, regularly, and heading out. She was going to put a tracker in his car. And the other one was whether the cm did, as she said, bring the OP's dc to Chester zoo or not! Dc said they weren't there though he did make a coin somewhere,op was charged and cm produced a seemingly homemade ticket! Anyone?

The candle one was more a 'It must have been' rather than a definite solution because i don't think the candle was found.

PinkAvocado · 01/01/2019 23:27

One where the OP posted a photo of a card from his neighbour and everyone was trying to work out her name from the handwriting. I didn’t see if they ever found out what it said!
