there has been two people sat in a car outside my house for 83hrs

[StateofConfusion]

Possibly longer

Its really starting to bother myself and dp.

Should I do something?

bless your DH for being protective

Did he say who was shouting or what was said??

Well then, what happened?

Well?!

Are they still there?

how long will a tankful of petrol last if they aren't actually driving? Do they have the engine running a lot?

Excuse me can we have an update so we can go to bed please miss curtain twitcher concerned citizen?

Sorry, I bloody well woke the dcs when peering outside, knocked a whole basket of toiletries into the bath

Seems they were reving the engine to charge the battery as the radio being on kept flattening it, would explain the brief trips out (I assume they'd get fuel then)

In short neighbour thinks they are "a bunch of fucking weirdos and could you fuck off an be weird on edinburgh close as that's where the weirdos usually appear"

And then I knocked the basket.

I'm sorry, I've let you all down with my clumsiness.

And yes, they are still there.

Oh no poor you, I hate it when I do loud clumsy things

Barebums luckily for the sake of my curtain twitching our side of the road has the garages in front of the houses so I'm set back from the road a fair way, --not so lucky when I want a good nose and eavesdrop--

Dp was most annoyed at me, I got the look the kids get when they totally ignore him.

I'll have another snoop when I drag my sorry arse to bed.

This is madness on a stick! Can you imagine being married to someone this stubborn and sulky?

However, very entertaining for us

Well I have some idea but he's too much of a cleanliness freak to manage this kind of stunt haha!

Had a quick nose but dp called through, "state, I can hear you climbing onto the bath you know, do NOT expect me to protect you when your noticed"

I told him I was stretching

Anyway, original teen has friends over it seems, and someones brought a laptop. --checks wifi security--

I'll report back on the school run.

Ha. Are you in (or near) Edinburgh? I feel a Scottish MN meet up in your street is needed. We'll sort them out.

Make a stinkbomb and stick it in their car.They won't want to go back

Afraid not Mme, I'm in east anglia.

Although I do think a group of Mners would be just the thing to --terrify-- move them on.

Oooh, ooh, ooh, I'm in East Anglia! I have been watching this thread but didn't think I had anything to contribute, until now! Can we all come round for afternoon tea, State?

I'm in the right area of the country too, what time and where?

Really don't want to out myself to everyone, but I'm not far from a rather large forest --ridiculously priced parking, adventure play areas go ape etc--, and think dads army.

Everyone in the cars still asleep.

So I could combine it with a day spa?

Hebie I'm not the spa type so there could be one closer, but there are two withing 20miles I know of :)

Love that he entertains friends in his mum's car!

You could combine Hebie's spa with hosing their car down? Just rub Hebie down with seaweed before squirting, you can call it thalassotherapy

It's time to creep up behind them with a foghorn or rape alarm, let it off then scarper. A few mornings of being woken at 6 like that and they'd soon cave.

Plus the prawns. Don't forget about the prawns.

Joking aside, the council are being USELESS. You're not actually allowed to live in your car on the public highway. Time for a call directly to them I think, or report them as minors to the police.

Garlic I now have really really weird images in my head

I have one of those rape alarms that you pull the pin out of and it screaches like a banshee.

Wrt where its parked, we live on a cul de sac, our side of the road has driveways and garages, other side has, path then parking bays, not designated, its a case of first come first served, if that changes anything?

Dps just annoyed as its directly behind us and he panics reversing since we got a bigger car.

Its been a week now??

A week and a day.
