I probably am BU since this is all really low level and nowhere near as bad as most peoples issues with their neighbours but...
I really don't get on with my neighbours, they irritate the shit out of me. It's all minor stuff like their bin constantly overflows (because despite having 2 cars they are too lazy to take their rubbish to the tip - only just over a mile away!) so I end up with their rubbish strewn over my garden, including dirty nappies etc, yuck. I strongly suspect they stole a pressure washer I (foolishly) left in my garden. They've broken my fence, and put a crappy one up in its place which looks cheap and tatty.
And the noise...they have 4 kids under 8 in a 2 bed house. Our houses are about 7ft apart but I can hear noise constantly from about 6am. Whining, crying, screaming. Ugh. It's worse in summer because the kids are all in the garden all day making a horrendous noise. Today, they've been outside shrieking for an hour already. I turn tv/ radio up but it still doesn't drown them out. They always have the (equally annoying) kids from over the road round as well so that's 7 screaming kids in a 15 x 30ft garden.
The kids chuck toys over into my garden all the time (I used to throw them back, now I just bin them. They do this super annoying thing where they constantly hang over the fence and expect to be spoken to. I was having some work done in the garden a few months back and they were all lined up along the fence, calling out and asking questions to the workmen. It's the same as if I'm in the garden. The other evening bf and I were outside taking some measurements. Then they all pipe up 'hello...hello...HELLO.... HELLO...WE'RE TALKING TO YOU...HELLOO...HELLOO...HELLOO...
You get the idea. It went on continuously, shouting at full volume, for the 10 mins or so we were in the garden. Bf gave them 'the look' but they're so undisciplined that went completely over their heads.
I have to go and do some weeding and mow the lawn later, I am dreading it as I know I'll have an hour of HELLO..HELLOO etc on a loop. while their ignorant parents sit indoors and ignore it
