So the girl who lives opposite has had her boyfriend around two days in a row. They sit at opposite ends of the drive and TALK.

Aibu to call the police, the fire brigade and the exterminators?

Never mind Covid, they make the place look untidy!

And I saw two people TALKING when I was out. Like it was a normal day.
Monsters.

Aibu to spend my lockdown photographing and hounding the dregs of humanity?

I live in a world heritage site you know. Standards must be maintained.

I bet they have bicycles on the premises too and sometimes even use them. Bastards. Last week she bought shampoo with her essentials shop. Selfish cow, nobody needs clean hair. Post a photo on your local busybody FB group immediately.

We went out for a cycle ride earlier & stopped for a drink half way round, we sound as depraved as your neighbour.

The people opposite me spend most of their day in their tiny front yard. The woman knits or crochets, the man does endless, mysterious woodwork projects, they even eat their lunch out there, sometimes they even have socially distanced conversations with passers by. Shall I ring 101 or go straight to 999?

Today I sinned..

My friend knocked on my window when she walked past so I opened it and we had a 10 minute chat 2 metres apart.

Disgusted with myself now.

Ylvamoon · 21/04/2020 17:30

... and I bet the boyfriend has a big soppy dog that is running up and down the street (on the pavement) off leash!
What scandalous horror!

yerawizadari · 21/04/2020 17:31

@Wilberforce1 You're just going to have to go out there and clean that window now, aren't you? Or have it completely replaced. Or failing that, brick it up altogether.

ElizaCrouch · 21/04/2020 17:33

Talking to eachother? From a distance? That's against the rules doncha know. You should twitch your curtains and knock on the window frantically. And if that fails go tell them straight.

Counterpane · 21/04/2020 17:34

I bet they smile at each other too.

Shameless!

cookingmywaythroughlockdown · 21/04/2020 17:36

They were drinking cherry coke.

No word of a lie.

CHERRY coke.

I'll never sell the house

It's appalling that people think they can flout the rules in this way. Every one of them should be fined, no, locked up, no, shot at dawn. Obviously. (Sorry, I think I need gin!)

CrocodileFrock · 21/04/2020 17:38

I suppose at least she didn't jog past. You don't want any of those joggers near your house. They will kill you with their sweat droplets, shoving you into the road as they go. The demons!

I hope you bleached that window. Those knocks can be deadly.

Cosyblanky · 21/04/2020 17:38

I know what you are attempting to do O.P, just not very funny. Please try harder

forgetthehousework · 21/04/2020 17:40

Fortunately gin is part of my essential shopping.

Binoculars and megaphone.

You and your entire extended family should all pile into the car and drive around filming solo joggers and families out exercising whilst maintaining social distancing, then put the footage on FB with a long post about how SOME IDIOTS keep leaving the house.

If challenged about the necessity of your own car journey, point out that you work in Superdrug so are therefore a key worker and cannot be questioned, claim you once saw a cyclist peddling along with a tickly cough as well, and then flounce.

practicallyperfectwithprosecco · 21/04/2020 17:43

I was horrified to see a family of people who shared a house dare go for a walk today! Their feet came in contact with the ground as they had forgotten they should levitate. Should I go and bleach the pavement outside my house in case the virus comes through my walls?

Wilberforce1 · 21/04/2020 17:48

@yerawizadari I’m on it already. Considered getting window replaced but didn’t want the neighbours to think badly of me for having workman outside so I’ve scrubbed it for 2 hours with some Mr Muscle. Have also text friend and gave her a piece of my mind, she started it after all with her uninvited window knocking.

Whenwillthisbeover · 21/04/2020 17:49

Unless your neighbours boyfriend is jogging on the spot outside her front gates he’s breaking the rules. Dob her in!

CCaK · 21/04/2020 17:51

Careless bitch.

She'll be the death of us all. Is she looking at your garden?

Batmanandbobbin · 21/04/2020 17:52

Do you live near me? I just looked out my window and the girl has her boyfriend there AGAIN today. However, he has another friend with him too so it’s more of a triangle they are sat at Hmm

ElizaCrouch · 21/04/2020 17:52

We need a diagram or it didn't happen....

picklemewalnuts · 21/04/2020 17:54

And Lo, there is a diagram.
