Am I allowed to kill them?

The children yes, the dog no. Remember the British looove animals

Hullygully · 29/02/2012 09:14

I did shout out of the window at them. I was enraged.

depends why they were out there, surely?

chasing an intruder = fine

having a bbq = not

They were playing Jane.

Why don't they know it's too early?

Utterly mannerless.

Tomorrow I shall throw darts. Or get up at three in the morning and blast music through their wall.

That would enrage me. What are they thinking? FFS

Hullygully · 29/02/2012 09:18

They are very odd.

You need to invite some naturist friends - preferably men - to come round and have breakfast in the garden at 6.30 tomorrow morning.

bejeezus · 29/02/2012 09:19

650am? Middle of the day! Get up sloth!

lesley33 · 29/02/2012 09:20

Good point bejeezus. Really by that time in the morning you should have done your maintenance wash, used veet in the plug holes and made your meals for the week with 1 chicken breast.

aldiwhore · 29/02/2012 09:21

Oooh veet in the plugholes? Does it work? Grin

Sarcalogos · 29/02/2012 09:22

Yadnbu

Shoot to kill ;-)

lesley33 · 29/02/2012 09:24

Apparently yes - planning to try it out. Gets rid of clogged up hair. And can be bought for a £1 in pound shops.

thestringcheesemassacre · 29/02/2012 09:25

citizens arrest?

JaneMare · 29/02/2012 09:27

isn't it dark at that time?

maybe they are vampire children...

lesley33 · 29/02/2012 09:33

Or zombies. Where is sarahstratton she would know?

hermionestranger · 29/02/2012 09:36

My stupid dog was barking at nothing this morning and one child was up at that time. I was ready to kill the dog, but at least eldest child made himself comy (in my duvet) and stayed quiet.

Disclaimer - dog is v. old and has "bad" days like this poor old thing. She's very calm and settled now. Confused

FuttBugly · 29/02/2012 10:42

Why would you put veet in your plugholes?!

lesley33 · 29/02/2012 10:48

To get rid of clogged up hairs apparently e.g. in shower/bath plughole. Not tried it yet, but lots of mn were recommending it on a thread this week.

MidnightWorry · 29/02/2012 10:50

6.50? thats really not early.

you should buy ear plugs and forget about it.

my kids get up at 4am, at the lastest every single day, i dont suggest you move next door :)

FuttBugly · 29/02/2012 10:56

Oh now that does sound like a good idea. Dd2 is 3 months now and my hair has started falling out so I might try that.

Getting back to the OP though, yes, that's far too early! Go do your worst Hully!

Hullygully · 29/02/2012 10:57

4 am...

Not that early? Even on family campsites they have a no noise rule between 11-7 am.

DeliaSsucks · 29/02/2012 11:01

We have some very noisy very big barky dogs that start at 6am next door so I feel your pain. I play a mental game of angry birds in my head in bed in the mornings. With dogs instead of pigs. Obviously. It helps.

FedUpOfTheBunfightsSeaCow · 29/02/2012 11:13

I'm enjoying the use of "enraged" it's good.

YANBU.
