Batshit Neighbours

[peonyblossom]

Please people of mumsnet regale me with your tales of batshit neighbours.

I have just been approached by my neighbour, who happens to be moving in two weeks (thank fuck because they are noisy inconsiderate arseholes!) , because her extended family have come to stay to help her move and are being disturbed when sleeping by noise from my house. Shocked - because though we are very considerate with noise, we have two small children so I was well prepared to apologise and see what we could do - I asked what the noise was.

The rain last night was far too noisy on my conservatory roof.

Now, the rain, especially when it is heavy like last night, is very noisy on the conservatory roof. It makes a right din and wakes me up too, it did last night. I got up and closed the window. However I am at rather a loss as to what I am supposed to do about it?

In any event I said I was very sorry that the weather on my building disturbed them, and invited her to bring me practical solutions on how to rectify the issue! She huffed, said I was unhelpful and left.

Couldn't make it up! Roll on two weeks....

[quote HouchinBawbags]@FattyBoom has she said anything to you since? Can she look you in the eye?[/quote]
No, she didn't speak to me again (although I moved out a few months later anyway). But she always glared at me - I think she somehow genuinely believes it was my fault somehow

Mid day hoovering - neighbours controlling partner knocked on my door and asked me to stop immediately as toddler was asleep - unbelievable

To be fair, they did look OK and made the entrance to her door look quite attractive. The people at the plastics factory who made them should have been rightly very proud....
