To be really narked that on a hot day like this I cannot dry my washing

[norksinmywaistband]

As next door is having a bonfire - It now stinks and will have to be washed again
Dc will not play ot in the shade covered patio, or in the paddling pool as it is too smelly.
And have had to shut all the windows to stop the smell coming in the house

Well unreasonable or not, he has just knocked on the door, apologised, and is putting it out - He didn't think it would be smokey. And all without prompting - well the harsh window slamming might have given him an indicator

hang it up indoors - mine dried in less than 2 hours.

Maybe his DW is a MNer and she just saw your OP and gave him a grilling

hey, he apologised and remedied the situation. unprompted

Had a whole summer of this two years ago - not the barbie but an extension next door complete with dust, bonfires and blaring radios. Then the next year it rained the whole summer anyway .....
