We have lived here five years and never had a problem, also I should say we are moving in about 2 months anyway, but there have been a few things, our neighbour knocked at our door demanding to know where another neighbour had gone, I said they hadn't knocked here and he made to come in, I repeated she wasn't here and he insisited the he had seen her come in, in the end he left.

There have been several things like this but last night he banged on the door at about 1.30am my partner answered it, and my neighbour said that he knew my partner knew about his trip to london and to watch his back.

Yes we were still up watching the TV, it wasn't on very loud, the walls are not very filmsy (its a terraced house) so I doubt they could hear the TV or us chatting.

We have 8-10 weeks to go till we move, but to be honest this last conversation has unnerved us both.

Is he elderly? It could be dementia.

If not, then call the non emergency number and speak to them about this...it does sound a bit worrying.

Don't keep answering the door though....ignore it. Do you have a window or spy hole to look out of so you can see who it is?

If a knock comes at a funny time, take absolutely no notice and if he carries on knocking, call through "Leave my door or I'll call the police" and if he carries on....then call them.

He is older than me and has grandchildren, but he is not what I would consider elderly. However I am basing my idea of elderly on my gran, with her blue tint hair

This morning, we thought it was an emergency which is why my partner answered it, we are tempted to wait up again tonight, but last night was a very rare child free night, so I doubt either of us can stay up till 2am without suffering tomorrow

The chances are he's ill. Could you look out for any of his family visiting and speak to them and find out.

Agree with PPs, this could be the onset of dementia or another illness. Please raise as a cause for concern with his family if you can, but if not then the authorities.

He has a wife, who I want to speak to but I havent seen her in a few days, I think she travels for work
