I probably am being unreasonable, but it's driving me mad. We had a whole fucking summer of it last year and now it's happening again, I find myself praying for rainy days and it makes sitting outside in the summer impossible with the constant thud, thud thud of the football. They don't actually aim the ball at my fence btw, but it frequently either hits mine, the people who live over the back and the people who live the other side.
I should say I dont mind the sound of children playing, but th is is something else and I think I'd probably be bit more sympathetic if firstly they actually lived there and secondly if they were little, but they're not. The grandson is year 6 and the friend he plays with is in the first year of secondary school, so Year 7. At the end of our road is a large park with a massive football field, goal posts etc and I don't know why they don't play football there instead?
I know the family who live the other side have complained about it, and they''ve also refused to give back balls that have gone into their garden so it's not just me its pissing off, but im lost about what to do about it? The response to the people who complained was 'where are they supposed to play then? Kids have got to play' we'll I don't know, the fucking park, the road or maybe their own sodding back garden?
WIBU to stab the football with a kitchen knife if it comes over here? Maybe that will shut them up?
