I think I have a cf

So we live in a cul de sac and facing the road is our driveway and side garden. Front door is on the other side. For a few weeks I’ve been noticing the same car driving up blocking the dropped kerb for our drive and a lady getting out and having a fag sitting on our garden wall.
That’s fine, I haven’t needed to go out when she’s been there. Her habit isn’t affecting me.
This week I was picking up the dogs mess and noticed that there’s tons of fag butts in my garden. She’s obviously just been slinging them over the fence.
Today I waited till she arrived and I went out to her to ask her to take her rubbish with her and not throw them in my garden. She told me to get fucked and she will do what she likes.
I didn’t really have any comeback for that so scuttled back inside.
Being both a coward and a nosy bitch I jotted down her car reg. Lo and behold the DVLA website says it’s not mot’d.
WIBU to tip off whoever enforces those things next time I spot her? She’s pretty regular time wise.

That's brilliant! Don't fear anything OP, it's your property and nasty smoking bitch is completely in the wrong

Aww well done mil! That rude cf totally deserved it!!

AmmarettoSours · 13/01/2019 18:24

“I’ve told your lot before-piss off” and lights up.
Mil promptly lashes the contents of the tub over cf. Cf starts screaming blue murder

😂😂😂 karma is truly a bitch

She does have her moments- I agree. She is a force to behold- dh reckons she has been spoiling for something like this because her life has been pretty quiet of late.
I’m living on my nerves though worrying- I am definitely not the type to fight at the doorstep.
I really hope that’s the end of it now and GFW CF has just disappeared into the sunset stinking like a soggy ashtray in her mot-less car.

OP I'm sorry you're worried but I'm quite impressed by your MIL!

I reckon that will be the end of it.

RavenMaven · 13/01/2019 18:31

I fucking love your mil she is my new hero! Hope it doesn't escalate things but FFS that CF totally deserved it!

Aprilshowerswontbelong · 13/01/2019 18:36

Those ddog signs you put in windows saying:
Ddog lives here..
You need one of mil.
This woman may be here..
Be quite a detergent!!

GoodCow · 13/01/2019 18:36

Ha! Your MIL sounds like someone you want in your corner!

Sounds like the woman is after a quiet place to have a smoke, your fence is no longer that place so hopefully she'll just move onto some other persons fence now!

Fab mil (must make a note not to cross her)

Ourmaud · 13/01/2019 18:57

No, she comes every day- usually around the same time. So yesterday and today although she’s been stopping for a few weeks- I only cottoned on to the butts this week. I first spoke with her yesterday and got swore at.
Why would I lie about something so pathetic? Feel free to disbelieve me if you want- it’s really no skin off my nose, although if I was lying I’d have given myself a better role than baby arse wiper and useless bystander.

Lokisglowstickofdestiny · 13/01/2019 19:00

In your original post you said she swore at you today, so if she came back for your MILs intervention she came twice today. Anyway, whatever.

ChrisjenAvasarala · 13/01/2019 19:03

@Lokisglowstickofdestiny

The original.post was just after midnight, so late last night or early this morning depending on how you want to look at it. So that first post was quite obviously not talking about today, as in Sunday but today as in the day that had just finished, so Saturday.

Ourmaud · 13/01/2019 19:06

@lokis if you look at the time of my first post I posted early hours. Obviously referring to yesterday as today since I hadn’t yet been to bed and was up with a sleepless toddler.

Water your plants next time and make sure the top of the wall is soaking

Romanov · 13/01/2019 19:20

I would put dabs of oil over where she sits, enough that it would ruin her clothes, but not enough that it could look actually deliberate

CowesTwo · 13/01/2019 19:25

I don't understand why the cf does this? Why drive from wherever to a particular spot just to get out of your car to sit on someone's wall for a fag? Is she admiring the view or something?

ThanosSavedMe · 13/01/2019 19:27

I do t understand why people feel the need to say ‘I don’t believe it’

Fine, no one is saying you have to. It’s not compulsory to say something. You are absolutely entitled to your opinion and you may be right but do you really need to say it? Does it really matter?
