What are your neighbours doing to annoy you this summer?

Print off some local council rules on noise & pop them through his door. Builders/gardeners aren't supposed to start til 8am mon-sat I thought?

Urgh tell them no as it's bird nesting season currently. Don't they know the trees will help keep their house & garden cooler during hot summers?

Inviting their entire extended family to hang out in the street - picture a small close with cars parked everywhere and 15 people drinking in the street plus kids running riot. Why on earth they have to hang out in the road instead of their back garden is beyond.

We moved to get away from neighbours with 2 dogs outside all the time barking constantly, it was really getting my partner down, we even had trouble selling it because of them, now we have no visible neighbours and we only have the sheep and cows to complain about, bliss.

I love this post, somehow it makes me feel better about my neighbors. One side- 4 kids, student daughter plays music for hours every day with speaker next to shared wall, I can hear it everywhere in my house and garden. Other side are alcoholics, smoking weed non stop and fighting all the time..and icing in cake, we have apartment block at the back that is pretty far away and we could never hear them, until one bloke decided to get a new stereo with subwoot and blasts his tunes right into the open window for us to listen to. Talking about woodoo, I involved a white witch to do a spell to calm them all down, some are better but subwoofer guy is driving me insane still, maybe I need to get a woodoo spell on him.

Some of my neighbours are my best friends.

My new neighbour is some famous ish gamer apparently. He sits all day in the spare room with the window open and screams and shouts at the top of his voice at the games.

He must wear a headset as I don't think he realises just how loud and ridiculous he sounds.

He also records content and literally repeats the same sentence until he gets it right, loudly.

My lovely garden sofa is under the window and he was at it for 8 hours on Sunday. Really grating on me and I want to scream STFU!

Planting out audio mole scarers then going on holiday for 10 days . I had no idea how infuriating they could be , I’m not normally rattled by noises but 4 of them going off every 10 seconds in torture. He’s quite deaf so won’t be bothering him when he get back either. 🤣
Also
We have 2 yappy dogs who we keep under as much control as we can , they don’t yap for long but it does mean I don’t feel I can go around and ask him to scare the moles another way . Maybe I’ll just let them tap in future . 🤗

Mine have a bar, 2 outside TVs (one is a projection), hot tub, BBQ, fire pit; smoke weed, vape and have a ruddy Swingball. Yet they act out the front like the Queen …
Gardens now are entertainment areas. Wish they’d spend the money supporting the local economy and go down the pub.

We’re on week 3 of 6:45 am wake ups by the ‘landscaper’ hired by next door. Every day hammering and power tools. I literally am running on about 4 hours sleep a night with that and the heat. And weirdly he has the smallest garden and I can’t see much progress being made!

My neighbours are doing the same as we are - bbq on, kids are laughing and playing in the pool and we’re enjoying the cooler evenings outside after sitting in a hot office all day.

Enjoy 😉

I mean, mine sent me a picture of his pen's....

Brawling in the yard, until the RCMP came and take some of them (and their beer) away. To be fair, we've lived here (rural Canada) for 14 years and this is the first time anything like this happened. Great entertainment for the whole neighbourhood.

My neighbours think that because they're in their own garden then nobody else can hear their conversations.....
The guy on one side works for the police and walks around his garden having very loud conversations on speaker phone about prisoners ....
The other side still have their son living at home- he's 52!- and all we hear his him wittering about customers at work, his washing and vapes...on a monotonous droning voice...but there's no conversation- he literally talks at his parents and they can't get a word in!

Despite the tuneless whistling buffoon nearby, my immediate neighbours are very quiet usually, don't play loud music, no kids involved, one dog who never barks, however, builders are in one side so it's going to be a long, noisy and dusty summer but it'll end at some point.

Feel sorry for so many on here with appalling neighbours, makes life so hard to enjoy your own home and garden.

💐for everyone with shitty neighbours

My immediate next door neighbour is lovely but the house that backs on to part of the other side of my garden have given their small SEN child a harmonica.
They are pre-school age so I have listened to it from (before) dawn til (after) dusk. The parents seem to think it is hilarious that the child is out playing it merrily in the garden while it is driving me slowly demented.

Shitting all over my garden.

Bloody neighbour cats.

Half the country must be stoned out of their heads judging by the weed wafting posts!

I've only to deal with three little kids next door who splash in the paddling pool and use the trampoline after school, and squeal a bit (a lot!) until mother let's a roar at them to be quiet or takes them in for a bit.

Only one out of our 3 attached neighbours use their garden and you would never know they were outside most of the time

We love our garden and are outside a lot when not working, but we try not to distrub anyone else's downtime.

We do have the grandkids over a lot and we do love a BBQ, but we still try to be considerate of others

Thankfully my immediate neighbours are pretty considerate. But,I live above a parade of shops and it's the people who pull up in their cars to go in the shops that piss me off. Always seem to have some racket,which they call music, blaring from their cars. This goes on all day from when the mini supermarket opens at 8am until it closes at 11pm. Some of them have it so loud,it makes my front door vibrate. And I live up 2 floors! The neighbours who are a bit further away,with gardens,are obsessed with barbecues the minute the weather warms up. Thankfully it doesn't always affect me,but if the wind is blowing towards my flat I get the benefit of the smoke drifting in the kitchen window. And don't get me started on the kids in these houses, playing on the trampoline until 2 in the morning, screaming and shouting. I'm surprised that their immediate neighbours haven't complained yet.

Turns out I’m the annoying neighbour. Knocked on next door to retrieve football that went over the fence and got an earful as DS has been kicking the ball against the fence and it was starting to get damaged.
No idea why they haven’t hold me before I would have bloody stopped him!

My child plays with their child very nicely, sometimes for the whole day.
But sometimes they go out and live their lives so their child is not available to play with my child and I have to entertain my own child myself

The absolute pricks.

Not just in the summer, but more irritating at this time! One smoking weed, told me he no longer smokes it and he’s trying to quit cigarettes 🙄 do weed smokers no longer smell it?! Another annoying twit with his chain saw, sawing wood for, I assume, his log burner. He does this at the front of his house, opposite mine. Think I'm relatively fortunate compared to some poor people on here.

Mine are very quiet - both sets have grown up DC. Me however, 2 DC launching in 20ft pool, annoying yappy Jack Russell and a mouthy hen who never shuts up 😂🫢

Mine exist next to me with tidy gardens while mine is messy and in my imagination they judge me and think they are better than me.
The absolute bastards.
