Things your neighbours do that annoy you

[Moominfan]

Such as playing happy hardcore in their garden at 10 in the morning.

Mine are pleasant and considerate.
Next door's little children play in their garden all day at weekends, their dad plays with them and talks to them in a lovely way and encourages them to climb on their climbing frame, play football etc. He never raises his voice and he never swears. The children don't scream or whinge. Sometimes you hear pleasant quiet music from his kitchen but you have to strain to hear it.
Are people like ours in a minority now? I hope they don't move.

Leaving dog shit all over my garden.

My immediate next door neighbour, about a quarter of a mile away, is brilliant. Keeps an eye on the property when we are out and rings if people are around. Rang us when we were snowed in to make sure we had supplies etc.
Our neighbour who owns the surrounding fields, does not maintain his fencing and his cows and sheep get onto our property. It's not the end of the world, we can contain them so they are safe but their feet do so much damage to our land.
Last year we had 6 cows in our chicken run, they were packed in like sardines!

Build a 7ft fence out of pallets.

Constant hammering and sawing, often at 8am on weekends.

Moans that we use our right of way across his garden to take the bins out at 6pm because his daughter is in bed.

Being unable to cut their and our hedge properly so our hedge goes up and down as he HACKS at it.

Other side comes out every single time we come out. He also does DIY all the time since moving in. We reckon he has one wall just full of nails.

At my house we have a neighbour behind who stands on her back step smoking, loudly talking in her mobile, making sure she can see right into my back garden. I’ve been there nearly two years. Can count on one hand how many times I’ve enjoyed the garden in peace. Her husband also let himself in the garden to paint his fence without even bothering to let me know then lied about it when I complained about his trespassing to the landlady. Urgh!!!

Use my garden as a shortcut to and from the shops. They use my gate to scale my fence then go round my back garden and scale my other fence. Lazy fucker has damaged my gate now.

My neighbours get up very early and bang around for a couple of hours before going to work. They move furniture by dragging items over wooden floors. They have two sides of their garden with trees over 50 feet in height. They have failed to maintain/repair/replace the joint fence. They have built where they should not have.

And yes they as a PP put it, breath in and out, and they keep on doing it.
Totally ignorant self centred people.

Exist! 😡

My neighbours are uniformly lovely. NDN have three children, but we rarely hear them, and when we do, it's always happy sounds
I'm pretty sure they don't think the second about us
(Two DC, both with ASD, that both learn two instruments.... um, sorry world!)

Not much - except have massive barbecues on sunny days (talking two huge drum barbecues) which mean we can’t enjoy outside or hang washing out...

Barking dog
Dog jumps up at fence - destroying it slowly but surely.
Dog gets through adjoining gate, poos on our lawn.
Kids throw old food/wrappers/pooey pants (once) over fence.
Family screams/swears at each other constantly.
The mum won't talk or make eye contact with me since I very politely told her that dog was barking/jumping.
I hate them

The people below me are noisy fuckers. They've been banging and screaming all day. I've sent dd to my mum's so she can sleep as she's poorly.

The one across from me absolutely stinks. You can smell him and his house right along the corridor. There is a landing window beside his house but the council have decided to lock it and now the weather is getting warmer it's getting smellier.

I'm going to have to complain about the smell.

I think they should build a very large town and have all the noisy neighbours move there so they can out noise each other all day long! Then leave the rest of us to enjoy our lives in peace!

Hold evangelical meetings. There only so many times you can stand 'How Great Thou Art' before you snap.

Mine were banging away with a hammer at 6am this morning 😒

Ours blocked access to our house with guests cars and get the arse when we ask them to move . I CANNOT get my head round why they would think that is ok . I make sure my visitors all keep their access clear !!🙄🙄

One family have spent the last five summers having building work on their property. There can't be anything left to hammer, drill, break down or build up. It goes on for hours a day, from 8 in the morning, all summer. We move in a month and will probably miss some great unveiling/sorry for annoying the fuck out of you for years party.

Next door love summer because they can sit out till 2/3 in the mornings, drinking, chatting, a little music and the clink of plates and cutlery for late night snacks.

Still they're both better than the last place we lived, where the neighbours concreted their garden and let their dogs into ours to shit. We put up a fence...dogs dug under it. Filled the holes with rocks...the dogs jumped the front wall of their garden, then over our front wall to crap every where. Dog had pups. The pups joined in, having the skitter all over the place which was damn near impossible to clean up. Then there were the flies and the smell, you couldn't open the windows on a warm day.

I need a house in the country where the nearest neighbour is about five miles away!

Three, yes, THREE fucking years of building work, with more to come - another extension all within permitted development rights starting this week, blocking light from our living room. Most of the work they have done themselves so every weekend and evening. How our party wall is still standing I honestly don’t know.

Also three, yes THREE fucking huge, noisy dogs. They insist on having their milk delivered, so this battered old diesel truck comes three, yes THREE times a week between 4.00 and 5.00 in the morning which sets the dogs off.
The first thing I ever heard them say, the day the moved in - right, get electric in that shed, get the power tools going!
We have had four social events completely ruined, we have stopped asking people round now.
We loved our old neighbours ☹️

No issues with current neighbours but when I was in 2nd year at uni I lived in a typical student flatshare in Marchmont in Edinburgh. A few months later a bloke moved into the flat across the landing, promptly moved in a few of his dodgy looking friends and it turned out they were into all sorts of shady dealings. Lots of comings and goings, loud music, iffy types trying to access the building etc. so it was a relief (and hugely entertaining) when they eventually got raided by Lothian and Borders' finest at 3am one night and never returned!

Throw their "little darlings" out in the garden from sun up to sun down.

I'm currently listening to the neighbours down the streets kids playing and it's lovely, lots of giggling and laughing.

But the other ones, my god, between the whiny sulky crying and the screaming and knocking ten shades of shit out of each other I sometimes have to go inside and close my windows....

Row of 4 town houses, I'm one in the middle, end neighbour parks right up my arse so the bumpers are touching even though she has more room behind her and can obv reverse out, I then can't get DS Pram out the car and if I go out I can't get back in the space as its too small (and I'm not great at parking in small places!)

bbq
no need to say more.
they are not loud (usually)

The neighbours that were doing DIY at midnight. Yes, midnight!! What on earth...

Neighbours are good otherwise but I have got the parking ishooo. They are a household of 2 adults and 1 child, whereas have 3 massive cars. One car is parked in their single car drive, one beside another house and the BMW X1 is parked right at the nose of the entrance to our drive. She can move it by another meter or so surely. I feel that one day I might reverse into her car by mistake. Definitely have to have a talk with her sometimes soon. It is really bothering me a lot and I dont want to spoil otherwise a perfectly nice neighbourly relationship.
