The Mumsnet Guide to Caring for Your Child's Teeth. How much fluoride should a child have? What will cause the most damage - chocolate or raisins? Is fruit juice ok? For the truth about what will and won't cause decay to top tips for reluctant brushers, fill in your gaps on dental hygiene here.
I must be one of the few people that dreads warm weather. My grim neighbours smoke skunk in the garden and play gangsta rap (despite having a 3 year old a new born). We cant have our windows or kitchen door open or our house smells like a drugs den (not to mention my fresh washing).
Arrgh just need to rant. Moving to the country in 3 weeks cant wait for the smell of cow dung over this stench.
well it is thier garden they are in not yours so you are being a little unreasonable but if it bothers you that much couldnt you ask them to limit this behavior to evening times? chances are they will prob just slam the door in your face though
I think they need tolerant relaxed neighbours. That is not us. This is my third summer of this and believe me it starts to get to you in the end. Watching your gorgeous toddler playing while the air is heavy with hash and all you can hear is f this f that isnt my idea of a great environment to grow up in.
Oh and they keep fierce staffordshire terriers (despite nobody here being allowed to under the lease) "for protection" which leap the high fence we paid for and shit in our garden. Because none of them work (they are on benefits) they are in all the time. Bet you are all jealous of my set up!
You have my sympathy. Our neighbour's daughter (who lives there) has just had a baby, so neighbour has started smoking his pipe in the garden so the smoke isn't in their house. Now the smoke comes straight in our house instead. Charming. Glad you're moving and I hope you have more considerate new neighbours.
It wasnt so bad last year as the summer wasnt so great - they are pretty low key unless its sunny. Also this year am 12 weeks pregnant and the smell makes me want to heave whereas last year it didnt get to me so much.
Refuse to feel guilty about our buyer as we have declared to her that we have complained about them plus they are apparently being moved on shortly (pity their poor next neighbours). They are not bad people just dopey (literally) and very inconsiderate.
Anniebear think I would marginally prefer dog poo to planks with nails in!
If I didn't know most people on my street I'd say do you live on my street? It's not in a particular bad area, most of our neighbours are really lovely and respectable people, but our neighbours have a big rottweiler dog that barks and jumps up at the fence, not what u need with a 15 month old playing nicely in his paddling pool {cute emoticon} and a house that backs onto ours has blaring boom boom music playing never for very long (probably because someone complains) but why even do it in the 1st place? You are not being unreasonable at all and have every right to report them to the police, I don't know when the reclassification comes in but hopefully they'll be able to do more now it's going to be a class B. If they don't work how can they afford it anyway is what I would like to know.
I'm sure you wouldn't lower yourself to their level but if you like hatching up revenge plans imagine their what their faces would be like if next their dope made you feel sick you were sick over their fence!
YANBU .. there polluting you with their ILLEGAL habit YUK! By all means do as they wish in their own home as they see fit.. but don't make others put up with it!!
my friend was in her garden last week and was eating out there with the LOs and a near neighbour started shooting birds (and descriping to each other what they looked like dead and or still twitching)
When I was pg with DD1 we went for dinner at a friend's house. She lived in a house share at the time and her friends starting skinning up at the table when I was 7 mos pg and I couldn't believe they could be so thoughtless.
Well at least there smoking it outside and not inside with there kids! Your moving soon i dont see why you need to do anything its not going to be your problem.
Well your post made me laugh Mrs W I was wondering where you thought they might have got the skunk they were smoking on the bbq and what they were going to do ith it when they had smoked it!!
YANBU, the people on this thread who say you are are probably the people on that other thread wittering on about how the word "chav" has now place on MN.
Let them live next door to fuckwits like this and then see how they feel.
I live in a low riser (3 floors, 6 flats) and my next door neighbour smokes cannabis outside the flat because his partner won't let him smoke inside. It's illegal to smoke there anyway because it's a communal area and a workplace. So I have to walk through the smoke with my daughter who, being premature, has sensitive lungs, I can't open my living room window because it's near the hall window so the smoke comes in.
I've told the HA several times and they promise to do something, but they never do. It seems to me that the only ASB that the police or Ha's worry about is the kids, you can be anti-social in your own home if you want to.
(didnt read whole thread!!)
