Update- we put lawn ornaments down the side separating our lawn and their drive.
This morning when we went to walk the dogs the twats had moved the 2 ornaments onto our doorstep!!!
I've moved them back. Fuckers.
So glad we're moving.

@Herejustforthisone

Cunts.

Just get some landmines.

😂

Get bollards for your drive. So he can’t park on your drive ever unless the new occupiers let them.

@Lochnessgiraffe

Dh saw him yesterday and the twat commented that he knew we were moving our and the neighbours were going to hold a party! How he knew I don't know unless he's being listening in on us in our garden.
Or your dh let it slip ?
TitoMojito · 15/04/2022 14:31

Cheeky buggers. I ended up building a fence because I was sick of this with my own garden. I sympathise!

TitoMojito · 15/04/2022 14:32

@Puzzledandpissedoff

Cement them in?

This ^^

I did the same when a past neighbour continued to drive across my lawn, knocking over the pots I'd put there - and when he damaged his car on one because it no longer shifted, he actually demanded I paid his repair bill Angry

What the hell Confused

@TheComptonEffect

Paint the sides of the ornaments with sticky stuff. Preferably brown.
This sticky stuff on the side eg honey 😜
IAMGE · 15/04/2022 14:36

Your gift to the new owners Grin

TheMoreYouKnow · 15/04/2022 14:37

WOW! They've got some front!! Yeah, like the other poster said, night before you move, creep out and cement them in! You won't see they're reaction but you'll know that they know you know.....!!!

IAMGE · 15/04/2022 14:37

@TenoringBehind

A light coating of Vaseline and turmeric might be called for.
This is much better
DogsNotMen · 15/04/2022 14:43

You’ve definitely got to leave a present or two when you leave. Dead fish in drains or something

Mummyoflittledragon · 15/04/2022 14:47

They sound absolutely vile. Not long until you never have to see them again. I do like the Vaseline and turmeric idea!

No. Dog poo is far more effective….

Before you go you need to totally fuck him up. Get those round bollard things and get a gardener in to cement them in so he can’t move them. Get one of those spiked metal chains to outline the boundary of your driveway and again get it cemented in

I want to see him totally fucked up

7eleven · 15/04/2022 14:57

They are absolutely CFs, but as you’re moving so soon, I’d just let it go. You’ll get so wound up, and won’t change them, so just try to ignore it. Easier said than done, I know.

Bornin1989 · 15/04/2022 14:58

My delightful grandad used to pour the oil from tinned sardines on a bollard he didn't want moved by his neighbors (for a shared drive) try that!

Titsywoo · 15/04/2022 15:02

Set these up to go off all over his garden/driveway the day you move out www.glitterbombyourenemies.co.uk/product/spring-loaded-penis-bomb/

LoveSpringDaffs · 15/04/2022 15:07

Can YOU not go & leave DH to deal with the cnuts??

SheilaFentiman · 15/04/2022 15:11

Ugh, what gits

Lochnessgiraffe · 15/04/2022 15:13

I'm more likely to be civil or just fume in silence. He's more likely to answer back or snap and lamp them. It's better if I stay.
Dd1 has gcse s to get through

Chain the ornaments to one another.

If that fails lots of barbed wire and some of these on posts

Update- neighbours walking on lawn!
LakieLady · 15/04/2022 15:17

Put tripwires across the boundary. Ideally, have them connected to a bell or something, so you can hear when they've gone arse over tit, and can go and laugh at them when they're sprawled on your lawn.

Ballcactus · 15/04/2022 15:23

@FabFitFifties

I would put the balloons, streamers etc, up on the day you move. Lots of loud chatter and laughing as you load the vans.Party music if you have any. Lots of honking of horns as you finally leave in your car, with tin cans rattling, and The Great Escape painted on your back window. 🥳
Amazing 🤩 🤣🤣🥳
duskyspringfield · 15/04/2022 15:30

This would really annoy me OP. They really are CFs!

tomatorich112 · 15/04/2022 15:32

Do you have a quarry local? four large stones will do the trick, and by large, I mean tractor to move them.
You can paint a few interesting designs on them if you choose.

ExMachinaDeus · 15/04/2022 15:36

Paint them with something really sticky - thick black paint? Or treacle or honey. Or put dog poop on them
