I was just outside in the garden, enjoying the sun having a sneaky fag and noticed the top of my neighbour's head sticking out over our separation fence. he was just standing there, looking at me, about two feet away. His nose was touching the fence.
I felt unnerved so I said hi. he says 'nice weather, isn't it.'. Yes.
silence.
He continues to stand there and look at me.
A couple of minutes pass, which I spent walking around my not very large garden.
He is still staring.
I go inside, and when I look out of the window he is gone.

Confused

Maybe he was naked and didnt want you to see.

cjbartlett · 16/09/2011 15:15

wierd
perahps he hates smokers?!

AgentZigzag · 16/09/2011 15:15

I'd have stood and stared him out with a deadpan face Grin

Yes, it is a bit weird.

Is that the norm for him?

Happygomummy · 16/09/2011 15:16

YANBU

How does this bizarre behaviour compare to previous encounters?

How old? Does he live on own?

DoMeDon · 16/09/2011 15:19

VERY odd!?! Do you normally speak, does he lust after or dislike you??

I would have had to comment further!

StickThemWithThePointyEnd · 16/09/2011 15:21

He lives with his wife [whom he has farm-animal noise sex with], his two teenage kids [who smoke weed in the house with the windows open] and his two little dogs [that he walks four times a day, rain or shine].
He must be in his sixties becausr in the only conversation we ever had he said he worked in garages in the 1960s. he is always a bit odd but has never before made me feel uncomfortable.

Arf at him being naked :o

perhaps he was stoned from the teenage fumes? Smile

whackamole · 16/09/2011 15:58

Ewww that would creep me out.

hiddenhome · 16/09/2011 16:00

He'd probably nipped out for a quick pee in the garden because their toilet was occupied.

My ds1 has done this in the past Hmm

Not sayin' it's the right thing to do or nuffin'.

StickThemWithThePointyEnd · 16/09/2011 16:26

by the fence? does he have to press his face up against it? it was right in front of his shed door, too, otherwise the pee thing would make sense..

GeraldineAubergine · 16/09/2011 16:28

Maybe he really needed a poo and couldn't move in case it escaped.

CaptainNancy · 16/09/2011 16:34

Perhaps his penis was stuck in the fence?
Did you check at all?

HTH

NormaStanleyFletcher · 16/09/2011 16:37

Arf at Nancy

lady007pink · 16/09/2011 16:37

Even if he was young, fit and hunky I would still be creeped out!

Grin at GeraldineAubergine, you're a scream as always!

GeraldineAubergine · 16/09/2011 16:39

Penis fence interface problems are certainly commonplace in my area. I think CaptainNancy has got it. Poor chap probably had a splintery end.

ShowOfHands · 16/09/2011 16:40

Can't a man press himself bodily against the fence whilst staring at his neighbour anymore?

Bloody nanny state.

AgentZigzag · 16/09/2011 16:40

Please tell us more about the farm animal noises.

Does their repertoire include ducks or pigs?

Cheeseandharps · 16/09/2011 16:49

He sounds dreadfully common Grin having farm-animal noise sex. When we (DH, not me and your neighbour) have sex, we make expensive African safari animal noise.

Pagwatch · 16/09/2011 16:50

When I was growing up the bloke next door was always looking over the fence. He is in many of my childhood photos. We used to draw pictures of headless clowns or fat blokes on the fence.

I think the stuck penis theory holds up to basic scientific scrutiny.

Pagwatch · 16/09/2011 16:52

Could you see when the dogs were while he was pressed up against the fence?

GeraldineAubergine · 16/09/2011 16:56

Was there any strange noises coming from his nether area? This could be a valuable clue.

perhaps he was worried the fence might blow down if an unexpected squall blew up but didn't want to alarm you by mentioning it, couldn't think of anything else to say, so kept mum.
