I have lived here for 50 years and am one of few original families on a quiet cul de sac of 3-6 bedroom detached houses in a professional suburb. Next door moved in around 5 years ago into the smallest house. A couple in their 40s, seemed friendly enough.
Our garden is higher than theirs, we had a shed type thing with glass windows for light, which faced their house. And so from their kitchen window the top of the shed used for storage is partially visible over the fence. They didn't like the idea of us looking into their garden so suggested we put a hedge row in, which we did. Not that I'm often inclined to sit with the lawn mower
An elderly neighbour who is recently widowed in her late 80s had a garden light on 9-10pm when she was entertaining on the patio. The neighbour was sent a letter informing her not to do so as the light was flowing into an upstairs bedroom- which is not used.
When my husband leaves for work, I like to stand in my front garden in pyjamas and gown to wave him off. Not a problem, on my property and covered up, albeit in nightwear.
Neighbour came round to me to inform and reuqest that I don't go outside into the garden in my nightwear as he finds it embarassing.
I would never be embarassed to see a granny in dressing gown outside her own front door.
During the summer last, the grandchildren were running around topless having a water fight. We were informed that they could see our grandchildren half naked.
Am I being unreasonable in my fairly normal behaviour?
