AIBU about neighbours and ‘the rules’

I’m frazzled so I might be being unreasonable but I’m not sure. Myself and Dh keyworkers working and between us looking after kids in shifts. We’ve followed the rules on social distancing as I’m sure most people have.
On our street last few days people from 3 different houses have let their kids play out and tonight 4 of the houses are having a mini party out front their kids mixing again plus visitors who have drove here.
I know it’s not my business but it’s annoying - they’re all having party and I’m the mug logging onto my laptop again to try and fit in more work tonight.

But they'll be the idiots with covid 19 and you won't!

Must be annoying but what does your KW status have to do with it? Are you annoyed they are enjoying themselves and being noisy or that they are not social distancing?

MrsBricked · 24/04/2020 19:15

Both tbh I’m probably fed up I’m so tired I could cry whilst other people are partying and not giving a fuck about others 😢 I probably am just being a selfish cow but I cannot understand why people can’t follow simply instructions.

Idiots. The people in my neighbourhood seem fantastic. A couple of the neighbours chat out the front from a distance but no kids are out the front and this is a place where kids are usually out playing!

However, I have Facebook friends who are doing live videos, photos, videos, fb stories of socialising with their family and friends. Some who don’t live in the same area so yes people are idiots. It’s infuriating.

I have a similar issue - our downstairs neighbours have friends around tonight (Hmm). I am so cross as I have been trying so hard to stick to the guidelines and would give anything to see my family. 'D'h is telling me to stop being ridiculous and that makes it worse. Sorry, just needed to rant!

MrsBricked · 24/04/2020 19:28

Rant away mrs my Dh is the same- keep out of it etc.
So annoyed with them all- all out clapping last night but the main they could do to help is observing the rules - they think nah sod that let’s have little party. 😤

This is my neighbours, non stop parties, weed, bonfires, a stream of visitors they're dealers and the man from there there was rushed to hospital a few nights ago and is suffering breathing issues due to C19. It's not stopped, the woman of the couple has carried on the parties.
Funny thing is she sits in her garden having loud conversations about how stupid people are to be out and about, I think she genuinely feels that all the times she's in the plot of their house then she's not doing anything wrong. 🤦🏻‍♀️

MrsBricked · 24/04/2020 19:40

😭 why are people so stupid ffs

Twatbags Grin

@TitsalinaBumSquash wtaf? I honestly think you should call 101 about that as it's a real public health issue.

Disfordarkchocolate · 24/04/2020 19:44

Most of my neighbours are being arseholes. It's bloody annoying.

Thighmageddon · 24/04/2020 19:45

I give up. I'm furloughed and barely leaving the house, dh essential worker so he's doing the shopping once a week after work. My anxiety and depression spiralling yet my neighbours continue to clap, clap, clapitty, clap clap every week whilst mingling with each other.

Fucking arseholes the lot of them.

Longwhiskers14 · 24/04/2020 19:48

OP, if you don't feel confident enough to go out and complain, call 101 and report them anonymously. The police won't rush round, but they will add them to their list of somewhere to check out when they're on patrol. MrsBobBlackadder, do you share a main front door with your downstairs neighbour? If so, I'd kick off at them, because letting their guests pass through it into a communal hallway IS putting you at risk.

MrsBobBlackadder · 25/04/2020 22:24

Dickhead neighbours have another party tonight  @Longwhiskers14 unfortunately (fortunately?) they don't share the same entrance door otherwise i would definitely report them Angry
