Really worried I have upset my neighbours and my road. We live in a road where most people keep themselves to themselves. Have lived here 10 years. My hubby and I work shifts and we have to sleep sometimes during the day. I have never exptected my neighbours to be quiet they have to come and go afterall.
We have the odd annoyance a dog a few doors down who is shut out all day and barks but have never approached the owners as these things happen.
Today a neighbours burglar alarm was going off for a couple of hours and it was very loud. Hubby was sleeping off nights and it woke him up and he could not get back to sleep. The house where is was coming from is an oldish couple who do not work but have a camper home and when I went up and knocked on the door there was no answer and no-one else around. It kept going off stopping and going off again. I was worried but could see nothing untoward. I called the police and they said contact your council so I contacted the council to see what to do. Well later today a man came round and visited the house no-one there so he spoke to their neighbours and whilst checking he found none of the alarms in the street were registered so he may write to owners to get them registered. Meanwhile the neighbour he spoke to referred to me as scum of the earth and now I am worried I have upset people which I hate doing. Do not want to step outside the house now. What I did was not vindictive I was a concerned neighbour and I was worried the alarm may go off all night if the owners are away as it looks like they are. Feeling really bad.
