    Mrs C is a bit like this

    Her hair is curly grey/brown/purple

    She is 5 ft tall

    She has bad posture, you could iron a shirt on her back

    She has a NHS issue hearing aid

    Her false teeth have some missing teeth (work that one out)

    She wears pink fluffy slippers

    She leaves wee on the loo seat.

    Basically, Les Dawson in a dress then?

    More or less sums up the Clampetts in one word, I presume.

    It is a real battle whether I check up on the Ashes update or this thread first thing in the morning. Excellent work!!!

    If there was the slightest truth in this story, we would have seen a picture of the caravan or at least a photo of a caravan. It is well written but IMHO a load of tripe, Having said that I have enjoyed reading it, although at times it has made my blood boil:D

    Oh no!! I was wondering if the brother turned up haha!! Hopefully he will go soon!

    I really hope things happen tomorrow. You have been more than generous! It is STILL your home and you didnt have to let these people park their camper on your drive and treat your home like a hotel!! I would be inclined to send them a bill once you've moved :)
