Piss taking neighbour

Moved to a nice (ish) area a few months ago, knew when I saw the new neighbour that he was a prick. Unreal how entitled the people down this street are tbh. My family and I are not stuck up yet we’re not the pits or in the nightmare neighbour bracket but it’s clear the neighbours look down on us as we do not follow the typical religion and culture that most of the street share.
So this twat hardly even says hello yet he stood at our garden fence watching as we were going to trim our hedges with our new hedge trimmer the other day and asked my partner if he would come and trim the hedge in his garden as it is our hedge that has grown over to his side. (I didn’t realise my partner hadn’t offered to do it himself and that this neighbour actually thinks it is our responsibility to do so and expects us to sort it as if it is our responsibility).
Fast forward to yesterday, a delivery guy attempts to deliver a package to this neighbour, rings his ring doorbell, I was in my garden at this point and heard loud and clear the neighbour say through the speaker that he was not home and to not leave the parcel with me but to take it to the other neighbours!
So he expects my partner to go and do his gardening yet we’re not good enough to take his parcel in? I could hear the disgust in his voice at the idea of the delivery man leaving his parcel with us.
He also stores his massive ladders in our garage because they won’t fit in his. Honestly I felt like launching his ladders over the fence for him to store where the sun doesn’t shine.
I could understand if we were scum bags and caused nuisance but we’re in bed by a reasonable time and do not make excessive noise or other anti social issues.
I realise I shouldn’t give it a second thought yet after hearing his tone about us to the driver I feel enraged at his cheek.

Oh you mean the PP is giving you the creeps?!

Ye, there's something very unnatural about them

DoctorRoseReturns just to be clear, it’s most definitely you and only you that’s giving me the creeps

Before you rush to fall out with him, are you sure you correctly interpreted his tone? I might say ‘take it to No4, not no8’ because I know I’m going to no no4 later anyway. Or because I’ve been a nuisance to no8 already with my ladders and hedge so let’s bother no4. Or if I were allergic to no4s dog.

Agree

Some people are quick to take offence when none is intended

Sorry, I have to help you. Don’t start every word in a sentence with a capital unless it’s the name of something/someone. My face is imploding reading your posts.

😂My Goodness, if that is all you have in your life to moan about, you're immensely blessed 😂
Skip past the comments you dislike, like most polite people tend to do!
Why feel the need to be so spiteful!?

Yes completely concur with you
He should trim his own side from now on
My father has his neighbours roses grow into his garden & he let's it be
He opposes to the neighbours coming in to trim because if he wishes for it to be trimmed, he'd trim it himself
Thank you
