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...

Love how you saved the delight of the visitor for the end of your post, OP 😁

Nanasueathome · 11/02/2020 20:33

Is B due back around 10pm?

anonacfr · 11/02/2020 20:38

I sense a vigil...

originalcatlady · 11/02/2020 20:44

There are no spaces in the street. I predict tantrums!

I’m loving your work and C’s too!!

givemebooks · 11/02/2020 21:20

Yesssssssssss!!!!!

My brain when reading @originalcatlady 's last post!!!

Oh please stay random visitor!!

Supertrooper98 · 11/02/2020 21:55

Oh brilliant. It's nearly time for B to come home.
Still no spaces?

Supertrooper98 · 11/02/2020 21:56

Also @originalcatlady your thread is nearly full. Bet you didn't think that would happen to your parking thread Grin

originalcatlady · 11/02/2020 22:21

At the risk of using too many letters...B is a CF!

Didn't even have a tantrum or do any wrong gear driving. Just straight into M!!! Mr B will be getting earache right now...sure I'll hear them all in the morning discussing how unfair it is that she has nowhere to park!!!

Shock
Gogolego · 11/02/2020 22:35

How happy is M that B uses their unused drive? Is it a sort of agreement where B uses M's drive in return B dog sits or something.

Sorry if this topic has already been covered. It's hard to keep up

HavenDilemma · 11/02/2020 22:39

What is M?

originalcatlady · 11/02/2020 22:47

I think it's more like B is entitled. B does what she likes. Everyone is scared of B.

MovingBriskyOn · 11/02/2020 22:50

You've got to admire B's determination and sense of justice!

If she posted a thread on here, MN would love her!

(Esp if she posted in style and beauty Grin)

Supertrooper98 · 11/02/2020 22:51

Oh no. So annoying that M lets her do this

Supertrooper98 · 11/02/2020 22:53

This could have been a brilliant end to the night if it wasn't for M and her passivity. Wish she'd get a gate. For our sakes if nothing else

Daftapath · 11/02/2020 23:27

Is M scared of B too?

originalcatlady · 11/02/2020 23:54

Everyone's scared of B.

LangClegsOpinionIsNoted · 12/02/2020 00:02

For the love of God, someone get M a penguin bollard!!

(Been lurking for days, but come on, bollards!)

originalcatlady · 12/02/2020 00:02

Oh oh oh. There's movement!

And pink dressing gown has reclaimed 1/X!!! Took her a few attempts of course 🤣

OP posts:
Jojo2wyatr · 12/02/2020 02:08

Yes, yes, yes @MovingBriskyOn! You absolutely must get a pink dressing gown to wear whilst reading...it adds so much more to the experience! OP posted a fuchsia one awhile back and I purchased one..Wasn't that ever so kind of her to post that for us? I think she should get a small commission..
Better hurry @Moving before they are all goneGrin

Gogolego · 12/02/2020 07:21

Right ... got it B badly your parks where she wants, when she wants

anonacfr · 12/02/2020 07:28

Please report the illegal use of a disabled space! As a blue badge holder this drives me insane.

LangClegsOpinionIsNoted · 12/02/2020 10:50

Now I've delurked I can't step away. What's the parking placement this morning, OP?

Jematron · 12/02/2020 10:50

In my council the white resident disabled spaces are not enforceable, only ones with blue signs next to them. So they ask other people not to but basically can't do anything, says on the website. We have one on my street and 4 different neighbours car park in it including a taxi driver.
However it is a bit rubbish if anyone without a badge to do it, including B!
