I am working from home the past few weeks and my desk is at the front of the house beside the window. My next door neighbour does not work, has no car, has no kids and I never see friends popping in to see him either yet about 20 times a day he leaves the house and comes back all in under maybe 10 mins per time. We do not have shops close enough for him to be going to so it is not to there and he is not gone long enough to exercise and has no dogs to walk just in and out the whole time all day. Baffling to me. Irritating too cos my ring doorbell goes off each time too.

Totally pointless thread cos nobody can know where he is going but jesus h christ its sooooooooooo many times a day. My dog barks every single flipping time too. Yes I will be happy to be back in the office next week!

Tomorrow is my last day full time working from home and I am taking Friday off so I think at this rate I may follow him 😂

Do it … and report back!

Well this I did not expect at all but anywho I had to head out earlier and bumped into the neighbour the other side of me who I rarely see and just waved hello but she came over to ask something about some drama on the beach and I said to her sure ask other neighbour' as he is always out and about and she says 'oh he wouldnt have noticed, too interested in her* in number 11' with a knowing look.
Says I isn't number 11 married with kids and was told that recently there was chaos and number 11's hubbie was carted off to the local garda station and not been seen since and my clearly very energetic next door neighbour has been 'helping her out with odd jobs' apparently morning noon and night since she has no man in the house currently. Better than eastenders and where we are nothing of note ever happens so that is why it seems more obvious I guess. I shall go back to work happily now knowing that my neighbours only seem to be bed hoppers rather than small time dealers 😂

He’s dealing and his dad won’t allow his ‘transactions’ to take place at home? He’s going to a place nearby to meet his clientele?
I bit more info might help us solve this! Does he always take off in the same direction? It can’t be very far away at all if he’s only gone such a short time. If the length of time he is away is fairly consistent that would suggest he’s going to same place every time for a specific purpose. As opposed to going away for 10 mins here, an hour there etc…
Does he have anything with him when he goes that you can see like a bag?
please report back if you find out!

Sorry didn’t read your updates!
You seem to have solved it! Well done .

I am assuming this is a joke post? Or are you really that naive? He’s 100% dealing. Keep your ring doorbell the same to record him and call 101 to report him.

Well going on your update and the number of times and durations he leaves the house everyday, he must be getting Viagra from his cousin. He's quick and frequent on the job anyway.
