You guys need to stop filling the thread when nothing is happening!!

In the meantime I had the most amazing nights sleep last night. Absolutely full of food and had an amazing day and frankly this morning I couldn't care if he's there for 6 months Grin

My God he is an arrogant CPF of the highest order. I'm very much wishing we all did own guns in the U.K. right now.

MaMelon · 02/08/2021 15:27

That is like Alan Partridge who always talked about "the Lexus"

The Japanese Mercedes Grin

Anyone who drives a Ranger is verging on twat territory. Anyone who drives a Ranger and refers to it as the Ranger is a twat. It’s an actual fact.

@BlueEyesWhiteDragon I will donate $100 to the charity of your choice if you take a photo of his face and private message it to me.

I need to know what he looks like…. For Science.

noideawhatusernametochoose · 02/08/2021 15:27

Just caught up on this (it was great reading over the weekend).
Wow, he is one ultra CF.
Please tell me you'll make sure there's someone with you when he does (eventually) collect.
So nice of him to apologise, he really is quite something isn't he. Icing on the cake not even to ask when might be convenient for you, instead he just states a time when he will collect.
Arse!
Just in case he's reading this... Mr CF Ranger you really are an absolutely entitled CF of the first order.

LavenderAskew · 02/08/2021 15:28

@BlueEyesWhiteDragon

We have contact. I repeat we have contact!

CF - Hi its X. You have my Ranger locked in your drive. I will call about 5pm to collect it.

Me - That's inconvenient. I'm out then. Would need to be 7.30pm

CF - Can't do. Am at X. No way you can do 5?

Me - No

Is anyone suprised he says 'Ranger" instead of car?

If he messages again try shoe in "... your car, you abandoned on my land ..." I think he needs to realised you didn't lock it in.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 02/08/2021 15:28

What an update!!!!!!

CF at large.

What a prick.

REP22 · 02/08/2021 15:29

Carvery table booked for 7.45 then...?

5pm is literally the end of some people's working day. If you had to come back from an office you'd have to make special arrangements to get there to unlock by 5. 7.30 is a perfectly reasonable offer.

ChardonnaysPetDragon · 02/08/2021 15:29

CF - Hi its X. You have my Ranger locked in your drive. I will call about 5pm to collect it.

Oh no. This should read "I left my car on your private property because I'm an inconsiderate person. I'm very sorry about it. Here is a year's supply of wine for you. Thank you for keeping it safe."

What's wrong with people?

Bookworm20 · 02/08/2021 15:30

Wow, no apology or anything!

I think this bloke wins the entitled knob of the year award!

ImRhondaAndthesearentreal · 02/08/2021 15:30

He is such a cunt.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 02/08/2021 15:31

He abandoned his car on Saturday morning when you told him not to as it was private land.

He needs to acknowledge that fact.

PyjamaFan · 02/08/2021 15:31

I love how he implies it's your fault that his 'ranger' is on your drive.

What an arrogant arsehole.

randomchap · 02/08/2021 15:31

Referring to the car as "my Ranger" he's an absolute pillock.

sleepygnome · 02/08/2021 15:32

Wow. He sounds extremely entitled. Probably never been told "no" in his life.

HaveringWavering · 02/08/2021 15:32

OK can you give us the teeniest clue what X stands for in " Can't do. Am at X"

A cheeky fuckers anonymous meeting? Relate? Parenting classes?

HeReWeGoAgAiN1112 · 02/08/2021 15:32

This does not surprise me.
What an absolutely prick.

PanamaPattie · 02/08/2021 15:32

The entitlement of saying "I will collect at 5pm" - no apology, no please or thank you. Someone didn't listen to Nanny in the nursery.

DevonTF · 02/08/2021 15:32

If you don't hear from him by 4.30pm - send him a message

Haven't heard from you to confirm 7.30pm to remove the vehicle you left on my property. You will need to be here at 10am tomorrow. You need to confirm this, as I am busy do not have time to mess around

AllyBama · 02/08/2021 15:33

Fucking YES, this is exactly what I needed tonight. It’s 10.30pm in Australia, I’m up with a sick toddler and this is exactly what I’ll be reading over his shoulder as he drools in his sleep on me. Get in!!

ChainJane · 02/08/2021 15:33

Any chance you can get it towed before he comes, preferably out of sight? Then text back saying you left the gate open at 5pm and noticed he'd collected it.

TakeMeToKernow · 02/08/2021 15:34

Wow.

Wow. Wow. Wow.

I’ve been lurking, but that last post has me furious. What’s the local car park day rate to park? £5/day? Is this day 3 of him trespassing? Tell him to have his £15 ready.

Mesne profits
Damages for trespass. The principle behind mesne profits is that a trespasser is not allowed to use another person's land without compensating the landowner. The landowner does not need to have suffered any loss. The amount of mesne profits for which the trespasser is liable is the amount equivalent to the ordinary letting value of the property.

dapsnotplimsolls · 02/08/2021 15:34

If you haven't reported last night's 'visit' to the police, please do so. You can then casually mention this to CF.

FenceSplinters · 02/08/2021 15:34

Wow. He absolutely takes the piss. Don’t back down now.

Bookworm20 · 02/08/2021 15:34

Based on that update I'd be pretty fuming. What a knob.

I think the inconvenience of him having to change his flat tyre when he comes to collect it wouldn't go amiss.

Lets face it, these tracks frequented by farm machinery, straw delivery trucks, tractors, forestry equipment always have the odd nail or screw or sharp bit of metal lying around. Shame he chose to roll over one when he drove onto your private land.
