which is the reasonable course of action?

[Koothrapanties]

New neighbours in the flat below us, couple with a baby.

They smoke cigarettes and weed hanging out of their lounge window which is directly below ours. It comes up into our flat stinking out our lounge. I have a 6 month old dd and want a smoke free home for her. It also makes me cross that they are smoking fags and weed around their baby, but that's their choice I guess.

My options are as follows:

1)Ignore and keep closing the window. Downside is if I'm in a different room when it happens I come back to a stinking room and can't air it out.

2. Report to the housing association.

3. Report the weed to the police.

4. All of the above plus social services for them smoking weed around a baby.

What's the best thing to do?

Yeah, ask the how you mentioned. I personally wouldn't say about the weed, but just say that the smoke comes into your flat and it makes it smell - just ask them to smoke in the garden.

Don't get all judgy about the weed, it's their business and is a bit like having a few beers in your own home - as long as they aren't dealing in it and it doesn't make things bad for you then let it go....unless they persist once you have asked them not to and made them aware of what is happening.

Just an update and another thanks for the advice. They went out before I got a chance to speak to them the other day, but we crossed paths today. I wished them a happy Easter and said that I hoped they were settling in ok. Then I said that I wasn't having a go or anything, but that there has been smoke coming up into our lounge. I said it had been happening since they moved in so I was guessing that it must be them.

They said that it was. I explained that we have a baby and asked if they would mind going outside instead. They appologised and said that they would go outside from now on.

I then got a text from another neighbour saying that the guy had asked her where was best to smoke weed because he didn't want to upset anyone. So all in all, it went very well! From their response, they seem quite considerate and I'm glad that I spoke to them.

Thanks again for the advice, problem solved!
