To my next door but one neighbour who has been using his jet washer all day for the last 3 days:

Whatever it is you're jet washing, I'M FAIRLY SURE ITS CLEAN NOW

Ah that's better.

I know I know, live and let live etc, just wanted somewhere to say it.

I read these posts and am grateful for living in a quiet, respectful stair, as we say in Scotland, a traditional tenement, where we all largely keep out of one another's hair! Sure it might be nice to have a house with a garden, but blimey, everything that comes with it, not so much. Anyway, as you were.

Stop your fucking dog from barking. There’s no way you can’t hear it! Yes you’re struggling being locked in, we all are, it doesn’t mean you can torture us with the constant noise!!!!

LegoBloodyHurts · 12/04/2020 16:31

Stop endlessly drawing fucking rainbows on the street in groups with fellow neighbours whilst your kids socialise together, then have the nerve to clap and cheer for the NHS then texting me to ask why I’m not out clapping too in the little group. You can fuck right off.

mumofababylion · 12/04/2020 16:31

exercise time is NOT limited to an hour!

The government has repeatedly said it should be no longer than about one hour, even half an hour if you are say going for a run.

There are way too many people who think that the daily exercise provision means you can amble around the parks all afternoon!

HerGrapeness · 12/04/2020 16:34

'Popping out' for popcorn and three tubs of Ben and Jerry's is not essential nor does it require three of you. Same goes for the one plastic container that was purchased by the three of you yesterday.

nancy75 · 12/04/2020 16:37

Dear neighbour, Shut the fuck up
We don’t want to listen to your dogs
We don’t want to listen to your kids
We don’t want to listen to your shit music
We definitely don’t want to listen to you shagging at full volume
For the love of god please stop making so much noise

Candyflosscookie · 12/04/2020 16:37

@thisisabittricky - there is absolutely nothing in either the guidance or the recently passed legislation to say exercise is limited to an hour. It's one of these urban myths that has taken flight and now people are parroting it as if it's correct. There is no set time limit on the once a day exercise.

Dogsaresomucheasier · 12/04/2020 16:39

For the love of God woman if we can smell your teenager smoking weed you must be able to!

anguauberwaldironfoundersson · 12/04/2020 16:39

Fuck off with shouting at your shouty kids. No wonder they're little shits who do not listen to you because ALL YOU DO IS SHOUT AT THEM AND EACH OTHER.

I hope you realise we leave our garden almost every time they're out playing because we cannot put up with the noise of their bickering, the constant banging of them kicking balls against the fence, the shouting at them when all you need to do is talk, the constant "'scuse me, can we have our ball back" literally ruins our relaxing time in the garden. It's been four years, you'd think they'd have fucking learned to keep the ball in your garden FFS. I swear to god 14m DD cries and whinges less than your kids - they have to be at least 7 and 9 now for gods sake.

I think they've also started to ring our doorbell and run away. Just what we need. Especially when we've just got DD to sleep Angry

Tidy your shithole of a garden - front and back - sick of looking at it

froggers1 · 12/04/2020 16:40

If you have your extended family round one more time I will seriously lose my shit. And i have reported you to the police and i have blocked your daughter on Facebook who has been trying to justify your selfish actions. Go fuck yourselves

midsomermurderess · 12/04/2020 16:41

Mum a minister's opinion on something does not trump the law. If the government had intended we could only leave the house for one hour of exercise, shop only once a week, it could, should have, have specified that, in the law. It didn't. Some degree of discretion, leeway, has clearly been allowed us in the legislation. It would have been preposterous to have been so prescriptive anyway.

juneybean · 12/04/2020 16:42

Send your fucking son and his wife and his daughter home! You dont need a fucking greenhouse building! You're over 70! Stop touching their fucking dog as well.

Monstermissy36 · 12/04/2020 16:43

Please can you limit it to one annoying as fuck noise at an unacceptable volume instead of 3. Having your google speaker in the garden and reggae on loud is annoying (I hate reggae) but why is guy sitting almost next to it with 80s rock on his phone... oh and then there's the kids 🤦🏼‍♀️

We do not have big gardens on this terrace street.... why do you not consider for a minute that your neighbours may not wish to listen to your music!!!!

Pick a annoying noise instead of 3....

Can't wait for the hot tub to arrive 🤯

FrenchFancie · 12/04/2020 16:44

To the three neighbours having bbq on their front gardens, standing about having a drink and all the kids playing together. Thanks for making my Dd cry - she has to be shielded due to high dose steroids and we hadn’t really told her so as not to frighten her, but now she’s upset because I won’t let her out to play with the other kids. So thanks for ruining my Easter Sunday with your selfish behaviour. Bellends.

crankysaurus · 12/04/2020 16:44

To a different neighbour, getting a new pitbullish puppy for your young children to scream and shout at is not going to end well. Parent your fucking children.

lockeddownandcrazy · 12/04/2020 16:44

People should stop repeating opinion as if it were fact - you who says exercise is limited to an hour. No its NOT its limited to ONCE a day. Thats the fact in the rules, anything else is just what you think, or a journo thinks, or some other person thinks - not a fact

Thighdentitycrisis · 12/04/2020 16:45

I hope my sander isn’t annoying and I try to only use it for short periods.

Candyflosscookie · 12/04/2020 16:46

@mumofababylion the only mention I've seen is one question to Michael Gove off the cuff and he gave his own opinion on what approximately would be "reasonable". That's not guidance, limits or legislation. Obviously people do need to be sensible but we also need to be accurate in what is actually allowed.

Snoooozzze · 12/04/2020 16:46

Rinse down your farming yard! If welt you're dog pee out there, naturally it's going to stink of pee so wash it down with a bit of bleachy water!

Longdistance · 12/04/2020 16:47

To the lazy cunts who dumped their rubbish in our bin communal area who live in the next road. Think you’re clever do you? I have you on cctv dumping your rubbish. I’ve given it to the council and your address. I hope you get get fined. Happy Easter 🖕🏼

Snoooozzze · 12/04/2020 16:47

*farking not farming!

That's better! Grin

HandfulOfFlowers · 12/04/2020 16:48

Nobody likes windchimes. Except you, apparently.

blue25 · 12/04/2020 16:48

Drilling in the garden at 8.30am on Easter Sunday is really fucking rude.

runningwoman1980s · 12/04/2020 16:49

To my next door neighbour why do you let you son smoke weed constantly and let him have his mates round whilst on lockdown. Stop slamming your front door too!
