to approach my neighbour about his snot-rockets?

[StinkyWeimaraner]

I live in a nice quiet area and from my kitchen I can see directly into my neighbour's front garden. I spend half my life in my kitchen and he seems to spend half his life in his garden.

The problem with snot-rockets is they happen so quickly I don't have time to look away and quite frankly it makes me feel gippy especially if I am eating. I am pregnant so can live without even more reason to feel nauseous.

We have a very harmonious neighbourhood so I would need to be delicate/humourous if I did go through with it. I know you should choose your battles but seriously, do I just have to accept this revolting habit? How would you approach this?

Buy a klaxon, keep by your side in the kitchen.

Every time he lets loose, hoot the klaxon.

In the end he will learn to associate snot-rockets with unpleasant noises and desist.

(you might need some ear plugs in the short term).

Or - every time he does it, rush out to him "Oh X are you ok, I thought I saw you being sick, can I get you anything?"

He'll either have to explain what a filthy beast he was being or he'll stop doing it

:o piprabbit

i cant stand it when people do this it is absolutley gross !

dont suppose there s a lot u can do with him doing the deed in his garden,is he married? can u not have a word with his wife/partner ?
