Started a new thread on the off chance () that something funny might happen in my street later. Maybe around 10pm...

Diagram below for the handful of people in the country that haven't printed it off yet...

@originalcatlady
@Fink

Definitely not! I may have an attack of the vapours and start wearing a pink dressing gown :-P

You don’t happen to be in Wiltshire, do you? Grin

Just F in her spot.

Why does this sound rude?

CharmingB · 05/02/2020 16:25

@SchadenfreudePersonified - at least she doesn't live in house "G"... Grin

Just wanted to say I’ve been following this since day 2 and I LOVE it! I live on a boring cul-de-sac and we all have a 3 car drive so I check in here every night and I don’t want it to end 😂

constantly vote for her to eat the wombats' bumholes

Needs more salt.

I've realised what my life is missing, parking dramas! All the houses have garages and/or drives for 3+ cars here (set way off the street) that said I have double yellow lines (major arterial route)

Daftapath · 05/02/2020 16:41

@ohforfoxache I think that was touching!

Was it her house?

B is in 1/2, C thought she was being clever by parking right up to her bumper. But then D arrived and parked up to her bumper.

Mr and Mrs K continue to have a life.

There you go again @HopeYouStepOnALego...another great tshirt design...run along now and get these all made up....or OP could have a contest for tshirt quotes and we could all vote for our favs! I just adore a humourous tshirt saying...my number one favorite that I have is a picture of Snoopy from Charlie Brown having a lie in on his doghouse with the quote..." please dont make me do stuff" , my second is one that says," Sorry I'm late...I didnt want to come in the first place" havent had the courage to wear that one out to meet friends, thoughGrin

HopeYouStepOnALego · 05/02/2020 18:18

Haha, is this the view from your window OP?

HopeYouStepOnALego · 05/02/2020 18:19

Go on @Jojo2wyatr, be brave and wear the second t-shirt to meet your pals Grin

Jojo2wyatr · 05/02/2020 18:33

🤣, Thanks for the dare encouragement @Hope...you just gave me a brilliant idea...My GP has insisted that I come in today for an annual physical complete with pap smear and mammogram....uh, that is about the very last thing I want to do so I'm going to wear my SORRY shirt today🤣🤣🤣

Where are Gary and Barry when you need them?!

Does that mean that C parked in 2/3 or that D parked firmly in X?

Jojo2wyatr · 05/02/2020 20:09

Those pink dressing gowns are kind of skimpy for running around the neighbourhood @originalcatlady...I much prefer the fuchsia ones you posted earlier Grin....please tell me that Mrs
Bs dressing gown isn't like those just posted...i cant unsee the thought of the flaps opening or her bending over a bit to stick her head into some innocent offender's window to tell them offShock

Gooseysgirl · 05/02/2020 20:27

Why did the Gary and Barry parking thread get deleted? I was hooked!!!

originalcatlady · 05/02/2020 20:27

C is in 2/3 and D has kind of squeezed into 3 as well. C is trapped

Could you maybe cheekily put ads from some local driving instructors under B's wipers?

MovingBriskyOn · 05/02/2020 20:46

@SchadenfreudePersonified hmmmm. Bumholes makes a change from rhubarb custard creams....
