This is a very funny thread but I hope Ob and OG are okay.

StateofConfusion · 01/04/2012 16:05

and yes, they are still there!

Today there are 3 of them in there, about to upload a new picture.

ovaltine not to bad, my mum and younger siblings are staying until tomorrow so i've been pretty busy!

Id forgotton about this! Day 20, they're practically heros.

garlicbutter · 01/04/2012 20:54

Maybe someone could tell State the Polish for "Did you know you're famous on the internet? May I take pictures of you for the story?"

20-somethings. They're bound to love it Grin

StateofConfusion · 01/04/2012 21:26

they have a friend over this evening!

Blimey, good photo though Smile

ovaltine · 01/04/2012 21:49

great photo. Their backs must be killing them sleeping in there!

StateofConfusion · 01/04/2012 21:59

its alright for dp, he can be a bit more bold about the photos, two small car dwellers aren't going to argue with mr broad shoulders 6"5 tall rather disgruntled looking man.

I've told him to join mumsnet so he can help with the updates!

Marking place as NEED to see how this turns out.

StateofConfusion · 02/04/2012 00:06

Ooh, stealth boast about your giant husband there, State Grin

I love that they're entertaining in the jizzcar. D'you reckon they've got a small set of tableware and a coffee machine in there?

garlicbutter · 02/04/2012 00:19

Nice to see they put the lights on for their guests ... Not very relaxing, though, they need in-car mood lighting :)

Who the hell knew this stuff exists?? (not OB & OG, clearly. But I quite fancy an in-car coffee machine. Am I sad? Don't answer.)

BareBums · 02/04/2012 07:58

Grin @ stealth boasting the "giant husband" Wink

He sounds lovely...any chance of uploading a picture of him? :o (kidding!)

millimat · 02/04/2012 08:36

Huge weather change here so not sure about you, but will it force them out

ovaltine · 02/04/2012 08:50

i have been thinking about this a lot. Are they still on good terms with the mum? Is she still driving the car when they not in it? My mum would have let me back in house by now! So Why are they staying there? To get Council house? And Why is the boot a different colour to rest of car, you would of thought they would have decorated. Can they put the back seats down? Did you find their poo spot on the green? How does she keep hair free? Surely OG has somewhere she goes to clean each day? When are you getting yr caravan, state? I wonder if they would live it if they could? How much rent would they pay?

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 02/04/2012 09:49

I'm a little bit shocked, but a lot glad they're still there. Could you not send your DD over there to ask in the charming way that small children do what they are doing here.

I hope Stealth's DP does join us

StateofConfusion · 02/04/2012 11:34

garlic how do you know these things exist? DP would love that coffee machine though!

ovaltine
Are they still on good terms with the mum?
I haven't seen her use the car for sometime, she was with them when they cleaned it, i haven't seen her since then.

Is she still driving the car when they not in it?
Not that I've seen.

My mum would have let me back in house by now!
mine too, maybe its them being stubborn --and weird-- not her.

So Why are they staying there?
still don't know I'm afraid! To get Council house? highly likely.

And Why is the boot a different colour to rest of car, you would of thought they would have decorated.__ if you visited here you wouldn't question that Grin

Can they put the back seats down?
if they can, they haven't.

_Did you find their poo spot on the green?
No, dp wouldn't let me over there!

How does she keep hair free?
she lives in a car, im sure her lady garden is the least of her concerns.

Surely OG has somewhere she goes to clean each day?
we do see less of OG than OB and whilst looking like a tramp she doesn't look as dirty.

When are you getting yr caravan, state? Was meant to be next weekend but FIL cant tow it down now, and due to my sil being --a bitch-- difficult me and the dc are avoiding that neck of the woods so its down to dp going, he's waiting to the so called 'fuel crisis' to end.

I wonder if they would live it if they could? How much rent would they pay?
doubt dp would go for it, although maybe they would if they could, they seem rather fond of the car though, rent, hmmm, they'd be on my electricity supply etc wouldn't they, £50pwk until we established how much they used then we'd adjust accordingly.

update week 3 day 21
no movent as yet, but THREE weeks!!!

HippyHippopotamus · 02/04/2012 14:07

I'm both amazed and pleased that they're still out there!

Jackin · 02/04/2012 16:07

Amazing! they'll need deck chairs. state if you have some old ones give them to them, so they'll sit outside and make for easier viewing.

ovaltine · 02/04/2012 16:11

state, you deserve a medal for answering my sleep deprived ramblings. Thank you x x

StateofConfusion · 02/04/2012 19:16

jackin the only deckchairs i have are very small barbie and buzz lightyear ones, whilst it would be amusing to watch OB and G attempt to sit in them the dcs would be pissed.

anytime ovalitine Grin

they've slept alot today!

RabidEchidna · 02/04/2012 20:34

What happens at 1000 posts?

GravyAndALumpyMashBaby · 02/04/2012 21:48

3 weeks. Wow. Just wow.

StateofConfusion · 02/04/2012 23:38

rabid we can no longer post, however im not sure if the limits the same in classics, i'll find out, if it is i will start a new thread and link it here when we reach 950ish.

they're still in there this evening, not alot happening, what i want to know is how the fuck they can afford insurance, ive just got a quote for ours and it is disgraceful, that disgraceful we are considering leaving the car at my mums house which would be a complete pita but half the price!

OP posts:
bagelmonkey · 03/04/2012 08:30

Maybe they're living in the car because home insurance is cheaper than car insurance?
