..for opening my front door and standing there scowling at 3 grown men, who have been stood across the road for 20 mins admiring a motorcycle with the engine running - with NOBODY sat on it! I muttered "Yes, it is lovely" before closing the door.

Well it worked, they did turn the engine off, but DH was just about to go out to the pub and I think he was a bit scared of them coming to get him when he left the house

don't blame you - I fantasise about erecting a wire inbetween my house and the opp neighbour in order to curtail the life of the chav that motors up and down our road on his lawnmower on 2 wheels every night when we're trying to watch a film.....it interferes with the digibox.....

YANBU not at all but I fear that I might be

sulkysuzie · 02/02/2008 21:17

well done. If that was me i would have stayed in the house ranting and raving but wouldnt have had the nerve to go out to them. I am a bit of a wimp

Washersaurus · 02/02/2008 21:19

LOL Wisteria .

It was the way DH said "Ohuh, why do always have to do that...I've got to go out there now". I told him if he was really that scared he should go out the back and clamber over the garden fence instead...wimp

very good
we have young lad across road who is got boy racer car, he often does that. i should do what you did next time

In another house, and another time, the dickhead who lived across the road from me bought a Ford Cosworth. He was a chav.

He drove his gf to work every morning at 6am, and would leaving the engine running for quarter of an hour before they left. The engine noise of an idling Cosworth is akin to that of a Motorhead concert.

I found that 'OI, FUCK ORF' at 5.59am worked rather well.

Wisteria · 02/02/2008 21:28

except he couldn't hear you over the beast of an engine desi - still I bet it made you feel better

You see if someone did that in a tvr I wouldn't mind.......... something about that engine which is just sexy.....

ChirpyGirl · 02/02/2008 21:30

Oh dear!
Dh has a bike and as his mates are technically challenged they regularly bring their bikes round to us for him to fix them so they are revving and running for ages, (but normally only during daylight)
If he thought someone wouldn't come out and say something cos they were scared he would wet himself laughing! He and his mates are all fathers of young kids and they all work in the same office. Tell your DH not to be such a wuss!

Washersaurus · 02/02/2008 21:33

DH scuttled out the house muttering "well, I'm bigger than them anyway" PMSL

I should stop being mean about my DH now, just because he has left me to go to the pub AGAIN

ah but that's pure unadulterated MN time without fear of recrimination or sighs.......

Desiderata · 02/02/2008 22:15

Oh, don't worry Wisty. He heard me alright .

I think it might have been my bare tits at the window that tipped the odds in my favour!

Washersaurus · 02/02/2008 22:19

ROFL Desi! Sadly, I doubt my now deflated bf breasts would have very little impact in such situations.

LOL mine wouldn't be visible below the window sill now that they have dropped ,

Desiderata · 02/02/2008 22:49

Oh, don't get me wrong, girls. This happened pre-kids.

I now have puppy ears, just like the rest of us.
