Stealth boast much?! Why do you care, unless they're tripping over your bins/chucking rocks/waking the baby etc..

"Cunts will be going in the window tomorrow."

Not your actual cunt, I presume. You'd strain your inner thigh after the first hour or so.

Maybe you could spell it out with some of those alphabet candles you get in Asda.

Howling @ straining your inner thigh Grin

Ha ha yes. #humblebrag. Seriously. There are people out there who just st pictures of houses that do not belong to them. It's a thing. See purple door poster.

They woke me up. I hate them.

You do realise we all want to see a pic of your house now? I'd be flattered if someone thought my house was beautiful enough to photograph. I am guilty of drooling over pretty houses on instagram - thatched cottages! 😍

znaika · 07/12/2016 00:01

Yes alphabet candles from Asda or an up yours topiary like usual said

How many wheelie bins do you have (I have 3 & 1 for food waste). Line them up outside - instant shitness.

BaggyCheeks · 07/12/2016 00:11

One problem you don't get in a soulless new build Wink

Excited101 · 07/12/2016 00:14

I don't get it, why your house? You must know.

I used to live in an ancient street...in one of the UK's walled cities. My house had a balcony and Japanese tourists loved photographing me sitting on my balcony having coffee.

OMG, that has triggered flashbacks to being photographed by Japanese tourists at the weekends, hung over & hunched over a bowl of cornflakes in my PJs when we lived in a similar house in the 80s. Tourist cities, they're not "all that" for real life residents.

WanderingNotLost · 07/12/2016 00:16

There's one particular street in London that literally has a constant queue of people taking pictures for Instagram...

GruochMacAlpin · 07/12/2016 00:19

Somewhere in the the USA are a bus load of tourists with pictures of me hanging out the washing.

People are odd.

EddieStobbart · 07/12/2016 00:21

Do you live on Diagon Alley?

znaika · 07/12/2016 00:22

Yes wandering...you get it. Although not in London. Just the last year. Not before, and they're so into social media that if i shout at them or moon I'll go viral. Cunts.

plimsolls · 07/12/2016 00:25

How strange. Has the street been used as a film set?

wandering what's the street in London? I may go and take a photo

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 07/12/2016 00:33

Wait I know. It's Coronation St.

I don't get it. People queue to take photos of your house? Because it's 'prettyish'? Confused

problembottom · 07/12/2016 00:42

I get it. It's like one of those streets with pretty coloured houses, or a quintessential English look.

Must admit I do love taking an arty picture of a nice front door or street. Hope I haven't photographed it. Shock

NeedsAsockamnesty · 07/12/2016 00:50

I will confess I have once taken a picture of a random house and sent it to my mother.

I was trying to freak her out and make sure she didn't visit me.

I had told her it was my new house and it just so happened to be the most ridiculous house I have ever seen

GreatFuckability · 07/12/2016 00:54

sock you are my new Deal With my Crazy Mother idol!!

Balamory? Are you Miss Hoolie?

BestZebbie · 07/12/2016 01:06

How do you find the photos on Instagram to know that that is what they are doing? Are you sure that they aren't catching Pokemon?
