AIBU to be furious at the arrogance!?😡

[The1andonly11]

My neighbours have their grown up son, girlfriend and granddaughter (2yr old) over to visit every day. Plus other grown up son has his girlfriend over to stay 50 per cent of the week.

We're close to our family and miss them terribly... especially today when we'd have all got together. Neighbours are all sitting round their garden table having a family BBQ

My 6 six year old misses his cousins. We are obeying the lockdown rules for obvious reasons so why aren't others? FFS!

Because they’re arseholes.
And there are plenty of others like them.
We now have over 10,000 UK hospital deaths. Those figures will do nothing to cure people of their arseholedness.

I get why you're angry. They're utter, utter wankers.

You're obeying the lockdown rules because you have two clues to rub together, and a social conscience. You are seeking to minimise the potential for you and yours and others to suffer as a result.

They don't. I do very much hope that if anyone is to suffer the consequences of their irresponsibility and cluelessness, it's the adults among them.

Report them. Dick heads

Pisses me right off too.

Neighbours on one side have had mates over all day. They are a mid twenties couple, as are their friends. They’re not dropping off a food package or caring for them.

Facebook friend posted Easter lunch pics of her, partner, 3 month old baby and both sets of parents! They’re not self isolating together. FFS!

I miss my family, I miss my friends. DF died just before this all kicked off and my Mum is self isolating on her own and is really struggling. She’s on the phone crying daily and I just want to drive to her house and hug her but I can’t. And these twats just do as they want.

Our local police are asking people to call 101 if they see people breaching the rules. It’s the only way some people will stop and the virus will stop spreading.

Sometimes you have to accept that there are people are thick and hopeless.

@Outtedagain
This makes me even more cross as my neighbours are primary school teachers and my colleague is an academic, like me.
These are meant to be intelligent people.

Makes me doubt it all - maybe they’re the sensible ones are we are the idiots?!

@Ginginwine that's awful about your mum, what a horrible time you're both going through. I'm so sorry for your loss stay strong.

Do you think these people would be happy if they were told you flaunted the rules, sorry can’t treat you here! I doubt it, do you?

We are obeying the lockdown rules for obvious reasons so why aren't others?

Dunno, but maybe consult one of the other eleventy billion threads asking EXACTLY THIS.

I will send the rain that we are having down to you

Me and my husband went for our daily walk today, and came across a group of about 15 guys enjoying the sun doing bike stunts in our local park. They were all just hanging out like it was a normal weekend and I was so perplexed...just makes me think a lot of people are probably not following the guidance. They were there when we started and then there again when we walked back through. We would love to spend time with our family and friends but it's not safe to or responsible to. I don't really get people's attitudes tbh

Thanks @Midsommar He was terminally ill so in many ways the timing was a blessing. He wouldn’t have survived past this anyway and at least we got to give him a proper funeral.

Its all a bit shit though, as is the whole situation. Unless you’re carrying on as normal obviously.

Just report them online.. Wankers!

I think that your neighbours are right.

Telling people to not see their family for months - is awful. It is breaking every human right out there.

@Amymayapple sorry, am I understanding you right in you think the OP’s neighbours are right to have all their family around?

@Amymayapple Perhaps you may have been missing the news lately? It is awful. But the alternative is unthinkable.

@Meandmypoodle I couldn't care less what you think to be honest. I am going to do what I want in lockdown - you do what you want

@MyDaughtersLeftFoot yes

My neighbour had her son and granddaughter over and they were all chatting away while me and dd were playing in the garden together. I haven’t seen my parents for four weeks now and my dd doesn’t understand why she can’t see her family. It is really unfair but I’m sticking to the rules, I won’t be responsible for people getting sick especially my family.

Our elderly neighbour is visited every single day by grown grandchildren and or her nurse daughter. Today the whole family went to see her for hours, guess they don't like granny??? They are going to kill her at this rate.

@TudorRoses I think the same as the OP's neighbours - and I am going to do what I want. If they fine me so be it. I am not being controlled

Unfortunately, until those in their 20s & 30s start dying in numbers, they won't listen. My adult children who still live at home have not been out for the whole time but I'm amazed at the number of my friends who aren't stopping their teens and young adults going out to socialise. Why aren't people getting it?
