My house backs on to another, there's approx. 50ft between us. Their bathroom window backs on to my garden. They have no curtain or blind in there and every time they shower I can see them, plain as day. It's worse at night as they have the light on so I can practically see every hair on their arses when they get off the toilet and wipe their furry backsides.

I tried to ignore it. In fact I ignored it for about 3 years. But last summer I went round and told them that I could see straight into their bathroom, and they might like to think about putting a blind up. I was very "english" about it and probably sounded like a female Hugh Grant. They weren't in the slightest bit embarrased or apologetic, and they insisted that it was OK as they have obscured glass. But, they did say that they'd put a towel up over the window when they were in there. Which they did for a while.

And now they don't. There are at least 3 of them in that house, more when the grown up daughter has her boyfriend to stay. They seem to spend hours in the bloody bathroom - every time I go out to the bin, every time I look out of a window, there they bloody are - naked and either wiping their arses or lumbering out of the shower.

One of them is a dinner lady at the Junior School FFS. And don't start me on the time they had super-noisy sex in the back garden (H and I got the toy binoculars out to see if we could spot them, but they were behind their shed so we couldn't).

So, WIBU to film the bastards and put them on You Tube, or should I break into their house and put a blind up when they're out?

I don't know whats worse... You phoning the police over things people are doing in their own home or the police actually coming out over itShock

There are lots of types of obscured glass and some is far more effective than others as we are currently hearing on this thread.

Booyhoo · 30/03/2013 13:44

magimedi · 30/03/2013 13:49

Hmmmmmmmmmm.

Booyhoo · 30/03/2013 13:53

Booyhoo - sorry - being a bit dense today Flowers

Presumably brown skins against a white background is more visible, if they matched their tiles there might be a camouflage effect?

AKissIsNotAContract · 30/03/2013 13:59

It seems bromleymum resurrected a thread from over a year ago in order to be racist. Lovely

I've never seen a zombie-thread-raising racist before. But now I have.

You live and learn on MN.

I would love this, very exciting unfortunately we must live in a very boring area!!

Beamae · 30/03/2013 14:38

I used to be able to watch one of my neighbours wipe his bum. He took about 10 minutes, did it standing and would examine the paper intently before discarding, pulling off more paper and then vigorously re-wiping. He was white and bald, if anyone feels that information is relevant. His shower curtain was blue.

complexnumber · 30/03/2013 14:44

Are there any links to YouTube vids.

I need to check, it could be my own arse. I'm guessing not as I feel sure that the RSPCA would have been called rather than the police

Dawndonna · 30/03/2013 15:05

Surely you have a blind on your bathroom window. If so, there's a mechanism at the side, it enables you to drop the blind over your window thereby causing a curtaining effect rendering you unable to see the offensive neighbours nudity.

LineRunner · 30/03/2013 15:07

Dawndonna very genius Grin

wonderingsoul · 30/03/2013 15:10

No do it! Grin You've been polite, public humiliation is the next logical step.

As a child I lived opposite (at the back of the house) a hotel. It was a victorian building with quite large frosted windows which went from thigh height for the average person. During the summer the guests at the hotel would regularly open the bottom window whilst in the shower to about waist height then stand there naked brushing their teeth after getting out of the shower. I saw a many a stranger's penis that way during my teens. Quite an education it was.

I have no idea what the relevance is of the colour of BromleyMum's neighbours bathroom is whatsover [bubiscuit]

ImTooHecsyForYourParty · 30/03/2013 15:19

Why don't you just go over and say look, you can be seen very clearly. If you don't believe me, why don't you come over tonight and have your husband in the bathroom with the light on, you can look out of my window and see for yourself.

I am concerned for you that my kids will, as kids do, end up blurting out at school that they can see you naked.

The other possibility is, of course, that they want you to see...

Still18atheart · 30/03/2013 15:33

Only just noticed that this is a zombie thread [bublush]

The posts related to the op had me in stiches [bugrin]

Now am wondering what you were doing to stumble across a thread with a topic as strange as this? [buhmm]
