Ew @ money shot

NickyNackyNooNoo · 20/03/2012 13:11

This is totally hilarious OP Grin

Possibly its the cost of fuel/air charges that have caused them to have a staycation Wink

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 13:12

rips good to know there's reinforcement should I need it, my own flesh and blood are useless ds swanned off to school, dd would rather watch ben and holly, dp thinks in crazy, and my mother still lives the other side of the border.

I should leave the bastards really I should.

Oh dear original boy is NOT happy about the water.

She should have thrown it over him! Grin

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 13:28

The cars now back in one of the parking spaces, more awkward to nose from the house now!

I'll have a sneaky look when I go collect ds.

You know it's a lovely day and I'm sure your DD wants to run up and down the pavement preferably screeching

mmmerangue · 20/03/2012 13:46

"the cheeky cunt facebooked her to bring him out a spliff. Tenna and takeaway menu"

How long dya recon a teenage/early 20's male can sulk in a smelly BMW?"

Answer - until his bail hearing is up.

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 13:58

norfolk she probably would, but after an arguement with my car door sunday I've a rather nasty headache, ill encourage her to scream on the way past to school ok :)

Mmm that's a possibility.

Can't believe I've only just seen this thread must spend more time in chat and less in AIBU

I'm so jealous my neighbours are all middle aged and boring, I want weird neighbours that live in cars!!!!

You've got to give him credit for his staying power I would have given up days ago

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 14:21

I'd have given up hours in smiling couldn't think of anything more dull than sitting in a car, well, spose if I had my phone I'd survive.

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 20/03/2012 14:33

I'm pretty stubborn so reckon I could have lasted a day (with a good book Wink) but no way would I have made it to a week

GravyAndALumpyMashBaby · 20/03/2012 14:39

State this thread has brought me no end of joy today Grin
However I've now done zero cleaning whilst DS was napping

I have to get out of the car for a stretch every couple of hours when travelling somewhere, cannot image having that kind of staying power!
hardcore bastards

BareBums · 20/03/2012 14:59

I'd probably be so lost on MN I'd survive weeks in a car Shock Blush Wink

Actually I'd feel pretty icky after two days of no washing so maybe not...

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 15:23

Same here barebums I'm useless without my morning shower, it makes me really grouchy not having one!

They're just sat there, magazines and chocolate bars to munch.

I want a chocolate bar.

Hehe State I noticed on the other thread you said 'welcome to Shameless' - I didn't want to say it but it does sound like a Chatsworth-worthy story! (Would have been round at his mums asking for the full story by now...)

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 16:59

If I could be bothered to talk to people I'd possibly discover its very chatsworth-esque but I live in blissfull ignorance, plus I'm new and shy Blush --and get picked on at the school when I drop ds off for owning a family car, a bugaboo, mini micro scooters and the kids wearing clarks shoes to name a few :(--

It does have a reputation but me and dp have led a very quiet life here so far, plus the house is gorgeous :)

Just found this thread (after almost a week away from Internet access) and its kept me happily entertained for ages :o thanks op

Hebiegebies · 20/03/2012 17:31

Just called in on a friend and her neighbours were washing their car on their front garden, I had to turn away from them to laugh as I was reminded of your thread

Please tell your DH that MNers are already mad, this thread can't make us any worse

BareBums · 20/03/2012 17:36

When you say picked on do you mean because they think youre rich/snobby?

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 18:33

I assume so barebums when that couldn't be further from the truth, our car is the 2nd oldest one on the street, it just stands out because its a zafira and most of the cars here are golfs/puntos/peugeot 306/7, size doesn't mean money (it cost us £500) and my pushchair given to me by a friend, clarks shoes, well I choose to buy them because I think they last well and ds is comfortable in them.

Dp took dd to take ds to school one day and someone told him they can't both be his dcs as they're too different.

I have a few friends down there so I ignore the ones who dislike me for no reason. It really doesn't bother me mostly, if it wasn't these things they'd be calling me fat or such like. Its one group of parents who grew up here and seem to dislike anyone who didn't.

I know everyone sayes oooh I'm not a snob! But I'm really not, I was a teen parent, grew up in a single parent family on a council estate. I'm just quite shy which really doesn't help me.

hebies Grin

update they seem to be back to the normal routine, only saw them move when the ice cream van arrived.

Day 16 in the jizz stinking car Grin

Sittinginthesun · 20/03/2012 19:56

Just read the whole thread - a really entertaining read. If you're not careful, this will end up in Classics. Smile

Nothing wrong with being a bit of a snob, btw.

SemperUbiSubUbi · 20/03/2012 20:09

"Day 16 in the jizz stinking car"

Ha ha ha ha Grin I laughed so much that I almost almost did a little trump Blush

StateofConfusion · 20/03/2012 20:18

Day 8 in the jizz stinking car (that now has a hint of febreeze)

Original boy looks sad, and eats what appears to be a steak bake whilst leaning on the nearside front door.

Original girl has been playing on her phone for several hours.

Nossy mother from across the road made an attempt to speak to them but they appear to not understand english.

Live eviction --is when ever the police get sick of dp--
Call 0800slutgirl to vote original girl out of the jizz stinking car
Call 0800jizzpant to vote original boy out of the jizz stinking car.

Votes cost £450 from you landline, and mobiles cost considerably more. Voting closes friday 9pm --whenever the police show up-- votes after this time may still be charged.
