Unable to open window due to smoke. Come here all you who have inconsiderate neighbours

Every fucking summer. We have bad asthma. All of us. They know this. They have caused an asthma attack by burning dead leaves before now and know about that too. Now they have a wood burner and most nights they are billowing smoke across the houses, or having a very smoky bbq, or just being noisy and annoying. Part of it is just having neighbours I know but when they make you ill and you can't open your windows then it spoils the summer.

Feel free to have a rant about your inconsiderate neighbours here!

My neighbours are having a BH party, it started yesterday lunchtime and there are 15 people in the garden whooping and hollering as well as a stinking bbq. One woman has a hideous ear splitting shriek, another a hyena laugh. You can hear them from 100 yards away. DH asked politely if they could keep the noise down but it only lasted for 10 minutes.
I have been hiding indoors, I have a splitting headache and this party will go on until Tuesday morning. Last night they eventually shut up at 3am but it started again at 8.30 this morning.
if I’d known this was going to happen again I would have gone away somewhere. Anywhere.
We have visitors arriving shortly, god knows how we’ll manage beyond going out all day 🤬😵‍💫

Mime does this and the smoke wafts into our back bedrooms. They do it with smoking weed too.

Finally sat down to have a brew and read a book when one set if neighbours got the petrol strimmer out, and now other neighbours are having a bbq with a bouncy castle and loads of laughing children, to be honest it's actually lovely to hear and I would never get upset at anybody gardening etc.

Not from burning stuff, but the arseholes (a mother and 3 teenage boys) next to us smoke hash on their front and back doorstep.
Every. Single. Sodding. Day.

We are both asthmatic in this house, and both adversely affected by it. Managed to control my asthma very well since those arseholes moved in, never had an attack, but been hospitalised 3 times in the last year.

Fortunately, we are moving in 2 weeks though.

If they're having a bonfire frequently, keep reporting it to the council every time.
