To think I can wear what I want in my own house?

[Practicallyperfectwithprosecco]

New neighbours and I think they might be slightly mad.

Few weeks ago she complained about me and oldest dd being in the garden wearing bikinis ( not even teeny bikinis ) as she has a husband and a teenage son and they might see us. I tried hard to make sure if I was out there sunbathing I was away from her garden and moved the kids pool so it would be harder for them to be seen from their fence. ( - the only way they can see in to our garden is when on trampoline, their raised patio or looking out of upstairs window)

This morning I was cleaning kitchen in my pjs (vest and shorts so not revealing) dd was stood by open patio doors chatting to me in shorts and a crop top she sleeps in. Next thing mrs next door is banging on my front door telling me I'm continuing to disrespect her and her family by the provocative way we dress! If we continue to flaunt ourselves she will be complaining to my husband!

I wasn't quite sure what to say - I suggested she maybe wanted to refrain from looking into my house over her fence if we were upsetting her.

She is totally unhinged!

😂😂 loving the idea. Could you all pretend you’re druids and get your dd and her friends to dress up for the next equinox. It’s a month away. Time to prepare.

She sounds mental. Carry on OP

Good party plan

Your DD needs to tell her friends it is a beach themed party so they all come in bikinis. Your NDN will explode.

I was going to suggest naked swing ball ! 😂
Make sure it's a pool party !

oh my god my sides are splitting, if this was me id totally start walking round naked!

why on earth is she looking over to your grden and through your windows.....

one thought, her husband and/or son arent on some sort of perv register and this is her way of protecting you and DD in a coming across as bat shit instead way?

is she of a religeous group where showing skin is offensive? even if that is the case its not your problem and you are well within your right to dress how you like in your own home, if you dont want to inflict your hubby in a bikini on your other neighbours do you have a cousin brother or friend of hubby who would do it for laughs and beer....

Tell your husband! She's a lot of time on her hands & is bonkers. Never a good combination. Keep a log, this sounds the start of ongoing neighbour issue. If your fence is a decent height she is presumably spying from her window. Creepy.

She wants a reaction. Smile sweetly, say nothing (it will be twisted/used as ammunition & she's getting attention she wants) & close the door. Usually gets nonplussed reaction & they give up.

I've met Latter Day Saints from the Utah bubble like this. I actually feel sorry for your neighbour. She's possibly had it drilled into her that women are responsible for the thoughts and actions of men, to be extremely modest is the only way of pleasing God yada yada. Unfortunately a by-product of that can be that innocuous and perfectly reasonable clothing choices become sensationalised, heaven forbid a shoulder or thigh is seen! It is really quite sad that she believes her male family aren't capable of controlling themselves around most of the female population of this country. SMH.

Keep a record of everything. If it were me I think I would even go so far as recording with pictures the clothes you were wearing on any day she complains. It will serve you well in the long run if she really goes off the deepend.

Get a large pampas grass for your front lawn and start making doe eyes at her husband.

OP I beg you let me swap houses with you for a week! I love wearing my bikinis in the garden, splashing around in the pool, I even hoover in my knickers! I’d even go so far as to put devil horns and a tail on myself

New look £12.99. ( Light is too bright in here to get good photo on,) . It's darker than photo. It's also big . This is an 8

I think I'd have to wind her up tbh. You can't appease the god squad so there's no point in trying.

hahaha laughing at playing thong song

We need a playlist for your DD’s party.
I suggest Sex Dwarf by Soft Cell and Male Stripper by Man2Man & Man Parrish. And perhaps you could sneak in Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini as well. 👙 🎶

What a weirdo!

I logged in to suggest a Borat style mankini for your husband to wear when she complains to him (that bit made me laugh out loud in my open plan office!) but I see it's already been suggested.

They have nice big scarves also

Her son is about same age as dd - crazy woman is probably worried dd will lead him astray.

Sorry wrong thread !

Tell her to kindly piss the fuck off and mind her own business, the absolute knob.

Las ka I thought you were suggesting appropriate clothing that me and dd should be wearing!

What a weirdo! Keep a diary of everything they say! These things often turn more sinister.

OMG she's going to go apeshit at a weekend party for (gasp) teenage girls!

How on earth are her DH and DS possibly going to contain themselves in the face of such obvious vulgarity?!

What a nutter!

I think you should also make a fruit punch and serve it in cocktail glasses that make them look alcoholic!

If your DD and her friends are typical teenagers there will be lots of selfies and squealing going on.

Anyone for a sweepstake on how long it takes before she comes round complaining?? I'm going to guess at 23 mins from the guests arriving!

Is the party at the same time they sing religious songs in their garden....

Drop her in a leaflet for a sex addicts programme seeing her husband and son have such problems with self control

So funny 😂
