  • I'm getting a little worried that there is more to this than thought. Are they really an innocent couple who just happen to have bad things happen and then split or have they in fact plotted the whole thing and are slowly taking over the Jones' lives and identities?

    Perhaps someone should check if there has been a newly installed patio at the rented house! :)

    Good point, never even noticed that particular aspect. Thing is, the OP has painted this guy to be such a lunatic, nothing he does would surprise you. And since the whole thing is made up anyway ..... does it really matter if an entirely imaginary person gets run over by an imaginary 10-ten-truck?

    It would matter to the imaginary services who would have to attend :eek:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    this needs to be edited to contain only the jonesfamily posts, would make reading much easier.
    I all have learnt is from others on many sites.
    Seek legal help if unsure.

    Noticed today in our garden that the mint is beginning to sprout which lead me to wondering how things are going with you Mr Jones. With the welsh lambs starting to mature you'll be needing a garden with some mint in it.

    Hello all.

    Sorry I havent been on for a while, things have been a little bad for the jones family. The friendship with the Clampetts seems to have paid off. I was tipped off my Mrs C that a gentleman caller was very quick to park in my driveway half an hour after I left on a Tuesday and Thursday.

    I came home about 6 weeks ago after I was tipped off by Mrs C to find that Mrs Jones was "ahem" allowing someone to park in her driveway. It has taken 6 weeks to come to terms with the fact that her red knees she blamed on kneeling and painting the skirting was really just a cover for taking it up the twelth stair.

    Anyway, we are now going through a process of separation. Mr and Mrs C have been wonderful to me and Mrs C has been cooking and trying to do my laundry. I just cannot believe Mrs J has done this to me.
