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.

Thanks for all of you genuinely struggling with selfish neighbours

Oh god, the music wankers. Simply Red ‘Stars’ blaring last night at gone midnight. Just why.... 🙉
Please just have some consideration and STFU.

Put your old and small penis away. Neither me nor my 7 yr old kids want to see it through the hedge nor from an upstairs window.

Oh and the fact I have social anxiety, and am easily mortified, hasn't been helped by a neighbour opposite filming me and writting posts about what I get up to, in the past (I only found out because a mutual friend took pity on me, and tagged me in one of the posts). That my drama/attention loving crazy ex used to play
up to this neighbour when he would torment me, smash up my garden etc (meaning I'd need to ring the police which was of course also filmed), meaning maximum embarrassment/mental anguish on my part (bad enough all that going on, without it being filmed for countless people to see).

I've explained this nosey neighbour to them all multiple times, that this is why I don't like having even semi private conversations in my front garden etc. That neighbour was out earlier, phone in hand staring our way, so could have been filming me being so far the only neighbour to not stick to social distancing rules, so there's a chance I might get "named and shamed" on social media, for something that wasn't my idea. They put me in a difficult position, and now I'm going to be worrying for goodness knows how long. And rant over.

Candyflosscookie · 12/04/2020 16:52

And to my neighbours, please stop swearing at top volume you manky tinks.
I'm no prude, I can curse like a sailor on a silly boozy night out with adults only there. Mid afternoon in your garden with your kids, mine and everyone else's being subjected to a stream of "cunting twats" and "he's a fuckin' knobhead ain't he" - it's just not the time or place Shazza.

Monstermissy36 · 12/04/2020 16:52

I actually feel a little better reading this thread, my neighbours annoy me no end but they are are nice enough and are t loud at night! In usual circumstances they are out most weekends too so it's quiet! Still annoying tho....

SeriouslySoDoneIn · 12/04/2020 16:52

You think we can’t see and hear all your family and friends sneaking in the back door of the building, hacking up a lung as your mate goes up the stairwell? You’re a brain dead cunt who’s putting your disabled child at risk and while the police might not give a shit, I do. I’ve not been able to take my kids out for fucking days because of you, stupid lazy ignorant selfish inconsiderate cow!!!!!!!

confusedbeyond · 12/04/2020 16:54

No you can't sing and you wouldn't get through the X factor auditions you delusional dick.

LucaFritz · 12/04/2020 16:55

Stop letting all your kids out to play in the carpark at 8am just because our apartments are shielded from view of the main road does not mean the rules dont apply Hmm and having BBQs with all the other neighbours while all your kids mingle is bloody stupid too this isn't a holiday! Angry

FrenchyQ · 12/04/2020 16:56

Stop moaning about people not staying home and then inviting your daughter and her kid over.

Please change the music!

Stop having a fag under our window.

Stop guilt tripping us into cutting the hedge cause you have a bad back... You didn't seem to have any trouble mowing your lawn yesterday!

AshOutside · 12/04/2020 16:56

Taking a "private" phonecall in your garden at 11pm at the top of your voice is not private! The whole bloody street can hear.

VioletCharlotte · 12/04/2020 16:57

@RestYourHead I wonder if you live next door to my parents?? DM says DF has been power washing everything in sight Hmm

To my neighbour across the road DISABLE YOUR CAR ALARM it has gone off every single night this week.

Next door (left) do you have to be so loud? Just talk at a normal volume. And stop that child from screaming. While we're at it, please can you buy a gas BBQ, rather than using a charcoal one that stinks.

Next door (right) please can you stop strimming and cutting hedges?

Neighbours behind please stop using power tools. And when you're not using power tools, turn the music down and stop smoking weed in your garden.

This is rather therapeutic.

katmarie · 12/04/2020 16:59

Please stop your kids standing on whatever it is they are standing on to look over our fence. It is driving our dog demented and scaring our two year old. And frankly I want to be able to sit in my garden without someone else's kids nosing over the fence at what I'm doing.

Barton10 · 12/04/2020 17:01

If you are on the phone please do it inside. I don’t want to hear every conversation you have with your family!

mumofababylion · 12/04/2020 17:04

@Candyflosscookie several ministers have said it when outlining the rules. Just because it’s not in the legislation, surely in the circumstances we shouldn’t be pushing things as far as we possibly can? If you didn’t exercise for more than an hour a day previously, why on earth would you now when we are supposed to be making a national effort to limit transmission? It is not without its risks, particularly in urban areas where it is impossible to go for a run or walk without coming within 2m of people. The four exceptions to staying at home include a provision for “essential” exercise (and essential is in the legislation). So many people are pushing as far as they can possibly go within the letter of the law in order to have their daily outing - and as a result making it more crowded/less safe for everyone to exercise - and really not acting in the spirit of it. Yes, technically it might be the government guidance and not the law to go out for a three hour walk per day but it is kind of taking the piss a bit isn’t it?

BlackeyedSusan · 12/04/2020 17:05

Sorry... Autism, meltdowns, lack of exercise, I try to keep him calm.

ladybee28 · 12/04/2020 17:05

Reggaeton is not music.

It's not music at 9am. It's not music at 2pm. It's still not music at 11pm.

Turn It OFF.

FishingPaws · 12/04/2020 17:08

4 carloads of visiting family =/= social distancing and it certainly =/= lockdown! Stop being a selfish numpty.

Dizzygirl00 · 12/04/2020 17:11

Wtf are you doing up there (as we speak) stop moving your room round/letting your kids crash about/ you’re all being absolute arseholes 24/7. Also stop having people pop round you dickheads

DishingOutDone · 12/04/2020 17:11

For those complaining about the dog barking, is it your kid that's aiming his new water pistol at my dog, making him lose his doggy shit and bark, thereby allowing you to complain about my dog barking?

boredboredboredboredbored · 12/04/2020 17:11

You're not the only people who want to enjoy their gardens. Stop your feral kids from screaming / arguing, turn your SHIT hip hop music down and Rome your voices down into reasonable levels. Fuckwits.

furryfritter · 12/04/2020 17:12

@RestYourHead do you live by me by any chance?! My neighbour has also been using his jet washer for past 3 days!

PirateWeasel · 12/04/2020 17:13

Alexa, please self-destruct and rid us of your owners' appalling music.

LoveMySituation · 12/04/2020 17:14

To my next door neighbours, stop slamming your doors and making me jump day and night, shut your annoying yappy dog up, and what on earth made you think installing a basketball hoop on the rear wall of all our houses was a good idea. I hope you move, you selfish bastards

Dizzygirl00 · 12/04/2020 17:15

It’s raining here good! Hopefully put an end to all the selfish twats having people over for bbq’s! yes I’m annoyed 🤣🤣 😔
