To want to act like a loon to put renters off next door ?(lighthearted )

I heard someone knocking at the house next to us . It's empty and is to be rented out. I went out to tell them no one lives there and they said they're trying to get a viewing but the agents have arranged an open house that starts at 3 o'clock . This couple were on their way to Nottingham and couldn't wait til 3.

I said they could have a look round my house as the layout and room sizes are the same.

They are a lovely couple and I'd be happy to have them as neighbours. So what can I do to put the other viewers off ?

I was thinking of sitting outside with a bottle of gin wailing 'I miss you Fred , I'm sorry you died ' (Fred was the last tenant and I found him dead in the house Sad)

Any other ideas ?

Bang on the door during the viewing, and tell them if they don't keep the noise down you're going to ring the council again.

Go and ask if they can lend you a fiver or if they have a spare cig on them, whilst brandishing a can of special brew.

I think the term is 'Can ya borrow me a fiver ' Lurked Grin

A large family turned up and the father was SO loud . I turned DD's music on which may have been louder than acceptable - I couldn't tell as I was drilling at the time Blush Grin

Know anyone with a drone? Grin
Or some boy racers who could park in your drive, revving their engines and playing bass heavy music.
