Locked parking thread 2

Sorry everyone I didn't post a new thread last night but I was a bit freaked out by the comment about finding me online at the end.

Anyway as the world's most boring update it is still here but someone is coming round about lunchtime to pick it up.

I rang 101 and reported it and that I was concerned they'd essentially vanished. They said there wasn't anything they could do about the car as its on private land but I could be liable for any damage if I moved it and that they would check on the registered owner.

I posted it on a couple of the local Facebook groups last night saying
"Anyone know whose cat this is? Please get them to contact me urgently on xxxx as itll be being towed tomorrow"

I had a response from the guys DS and she said she'd contact him and get him ring me. He hasn't rang me but she messaged me back to say he'd collect it at lunchtime if that was OK. I've said fine but we going out at at 2 so if he's not here before then he won't be able to get it till we get back later.

And that's it really.

Arrogant fucker! Absolutely have a drink after your carvery, he is not having his car this weekend. God I'm so mad for you!

GoldBar · 01/08/2021 13:49

Go for your carvery then open a bottle of wine when you get back...

lastcall · 01/08/2021 13:49

Oh great. An entitled lycra lout.

Leave for the day. Make sure the gate stays locked and shut; might want to put a big vehicle in front of it so cutting the locks won't free him.

Leave a note saying farm wake up time Monday morning is the next time you'll be willing to meet him for your apology and to open the gate. 6, 7 am.

GreatBritishWineDrinker · 01/08/2021 13:49

Go out, take the keys for the gate with you. Don't engage with him or his sister anymore. No replying to messages, no agreeing to times etc just ignore.
Totally taking the piss now

Heffapotamus · 01/08/2021 13:49

Just go out - enjoy your day - and let the FC move his car in the morning. Arse.

@MotherofTerriers

I've got some giant muffin tins - very deep ones - wonder if they would work for yorkshires
Definitely will work! I use them most of the time.

DB has surrounded his car with cuddly toys due to the apparently appalling lack of toy soldiers and is in the process of erecting a sign that says caution wild animals on guard.
That is possibly the funniest thing I've seen today!

@BlueEyesWhiteDragon

I am just posting in an apoplectic rage as he is still NOT here.

Worse than that according to his sister the fuxker is somewhere cycling in the bastard forest. Hes here somewhere but did not come to move his car first. Hes just gone off for a fucking cycle. In doing so he will have clearly seen the catpark is more empty than full. I. Argh.

I guess he doesn’t want his car back

Tow it

DonttouchthatLarry · 01/08/2021 13:50

@KateTheEighth

This is all you need to know

Equal amounts. Do away with numbers of eggs and grams of flour and ml of milk.

Oh and a v hot oven and lots of oil

Mind blown! Thankyou for this!
NeedNewKnees · 01/08/2021 13:50

It is vitally important you have VATS of wine with your dinner. And that the truck is parked outside the gates again

FenceSplinters · 01/08/2021 13:50

Have a couple of glasses of wine with your meal, so you can’t possibly move the vehicle blocking the gates.

SoupDragon · 01/08/2021 13:50

What a wanker!

Cycling happy in the knowledge that his car is safe and sound in it's own secure car park

We need a live stream of when he finally decides to turn up.

We always have Yorkshire’s with Christmas dinner. It’s a celebration, so they’re essential!

Reminded me of when we met up with and American friend in a European city. He parked his hire car and overstayed tge time limit. When he got back to it he had been ticketed and clamped. The instructions on the back of the ticket said that the office to pay the fine in order to get it released was open until 7pm so he figured he might as well leave the car where it was and pay the fine at 6.50pm to save himself paying for further parking. I'm guessing your CFer is doing the same!
BlueEyesWhiteDragon · 01/08/2021 13:51

I'm trying to compose a reply to his Dsis but all I've got is either an absolute rant.

I'll probably just go wit. I am now out. I will let you know when is convenient to get car from the scrap yard

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES are you to let him out after 2pm. You have the weight of mumsnet behind you op!

milkyaqua · 01/08/2021 13:53

What a wanker! Enjoy your meal. Let him organise his own car pickup.

Glumgal · 01/08/2021 13:53

Presumably he'll want his car for work in the morning.

Hell would freeze over before I let him have it now after that!

Howdidigetsoold · 01/08/2021 13:53

Go out!

Arrange for the car to be towed - don’t tell the sister anything

FenceSplinters · 01/08/2021 13:53

Just don’t reply. Don’t engage with her. Delete the stuff on FB. It might put the wind up him.
