Day 7 in the manky black and red BMW,

Original teen knocks on house, whom we assume is his mother answers the door, original teen hands over a tescos bag. I only hope its a card and gift and not jizzy tissues.

Maybe it's dirty washing Grin

You'll be seeing the postman delivering mail to the BMW next Hmm

I think boomerwang's right, this would make an excellent silly story for The Sun.

StateofConfusion · 18/03/2012 13:22

Would they know it was me though?

I don't think I could do it.

I wonder if they'll call a truce for mothers day.

violetwellies · 18/03/2012 13:38

Oh you must Grin

WhiteTrash · 18/03/2012 14:12

Omg DO IT!!! PM me the details, I'll do it!!!

spudboo · 18/03/2012 14:32

you are right to be worried, You are aware of the resent attempted abduction of a child on there way to school in the wythenshaw area. I would hope the public would inform the local pso of any unknown,strange,hanging arounds of any kind. For the safe and free play of our children!! well thats what i think anyway

cocolepew · 18/03/2012 14:48

I love the fact that they got out while the mum used the car, and then got back in, plonkers Grin

StateofConfusion · 18/03/2012 15:36

My auntie has come to see us, first words as she walked in, "why are there people playing cards in a car across the road?"

spud the police have been made aware more than once.

RabidEchidna · 18/03/2012 17:08

RabidEchidna · 18/03/2012 18:23

StateofConfusion · 18/03/2012 18:47

Not a lot happening this evening, all steamed up still, but it is very cold and wet here.

we had this a few years ago - i contacted the police to ask their advice, they said it was ok, not to worry, but would give no further explanation so I presumed it was some sort of covert operation. We have a famous neighbour so maybe was some threat against them

lazarusb · 18/03/2012 19:30

Perhaps it's for Sport Relief? Only more 'relief' than 'sport'. Grin

millimat · 18/03/2012 20:30

Any further news? Should the aforesaid stroppy teenager be in school tomorrow?

Katiekitty · 18/03/2012 20:47
StateofConfusion · 18/03/2012 20:48

Don't think so millimat --now I've stared at him daily for nearly a whole week-- further inspection I'd put him at 18-23yo roughly.

Nothing much tonight except the parcel shelf now has so much rubbish on it its pressed against the rear window. Why being in a car means they can't stick stuff in a bin is beyond me.

OP posts:
Katiekitty · 18/03/2012 20:50

Why not reach out a neighbourly hand with a gift - howsabout a 'Tree of Freshness' to hang on the mirror?

StateofConfusion · 18/03/2012 21:37

katie Grin

I really wish I had the front to go over there. Just had a quick nose out ds' window, back door is open with legs poking out, my guess is they need to lie down and stretch out after a week of being crumpled up.

Its raining though! Hmm
