I know I am probably ABU but our neighbours have just got a trampoline for their three children. They have a big garden and have put it right next to the fence where we have our table and chairs. All I can hear is squeak squeak squeak of the springs.

I said to my DH would it BU to ask them to move it to the bottom of the garden and he said yes, very. Suck it up, far worse things than children playing outside. Their garden, their choice where to put it.

Our two DC have also got a trampoline but it’s at the end of the garden away from everyone’s houses, and doesn’t squeak.

Is it possible that it's placed there because it's the only completely flat sur face in the garden? That's the reason ours is next to a fence.

No their garden is flat! The previous owners rovtervated and had it rolled several years ago. I look out the window at it in envy and even considered trying to buy a chunk of it when it went on the market. It sold too quickly for me to even pop over and ask.

My neighbour has 12 and 17 year olds and they have a trampoline. The netting around it has broken so they have taken to holding onto the fence now whilst they're jumping. This means that all we hear now is the fence rattling constantly. It drives us and other neighbours mad. The youngest is on it all the time and faces our house so is constantly looking into our garden and kitchen.
We are trying to sell our house and it's putting potential buyers off the house.
