to wonder whether the new family that live next door work?

A new family, Asian (but that's by the by), have moved in next door. I don't see the man or woman going out to work at all. We live in an area that's up and coming with young, aspirant, professional families. AIBU to think they might be lowering the tone?

PS I like curry.
PPS Isn't it great about the Daily Mail tie in?

'Almost certainly one of the following

a) benefit scroungers

b) on disability benefit

c) asylm seekers about to poach a british persons job

d) feckless

e) drug dealers

f) sex traffickers

g) sex offenders

h) illegal immigrants

i) nurses '

Probably all of the above you know. Thats why they haven't cut the grass. Too busy watching the giant plasma screen and eating pre-cut fruit while smoking 90 fags and neglecting their children. sheesh. Move now.

Pofaced - Have you checked they aren't claiming single person council tax reduction?

StealthBearWipesBumOnDailyMail · 20/08/2009 11:07

pre cut fruit

pofacedandproud · 20/08/2009 11:13

Excellent point Swedes. I will try intercepting the postman once again.

pofacedandproud · 20/08/2009 11:16

Disguised as a letterbox, obviously.

SmallScrewCap · 20/08/2009 11:27

I bet they "hold knife like pen" as well.

Sorry to hijack thread.

I am a DM reader and am very distressed as someone recently told me that asylum seekers are the natural predators of paedophiles.

Is this true? Help!

You should be even more concerned if they start growing pampas grass in the back garden. It means they are swingers favouring the "rear exit".

But as for lack of activity in the daytime, they may be too busy 1) preparing back garden for planting; 2) spying on you; 3) there is an off chance they work for the inland revenue, so proceed with caution!

SwedesandTurnips · 20/08/2009 11:42

I don't think paedophiles should get Tamiflu. Full stop. I've written to my MP. Though fat lot of use she is. She should have been home bring up her family instead of gallavanting round SW1 trying to do the work of men. Her family will pay, mark my words.

pofacedandproud · 20/08/2009 11:50

actually Swedes all illegal immigrants and paedophiles should get Tamiflu! And the Swine Flu vaccine! They both make you infertile! And make your reproductive organs fall off! Fact!

SwedesandTurnips · 20/08/2009 11:53

Pofaced well in that case, let's also give Tamiflu to ecowarriors together with a good wash.

mummylin2495 · 20/08/2009 12:04

hey QS,you should know by now that i have a pampas grass in my back garden ,but we are definitley not swingers

beanieb · 20/08/2009 12:07

how many children do they have?

SwedesandTurnips · 20/08/2009 12:09

Beanieb - 3 children, I suspect all by different fathers. [cat's bum face]

QuintessentialShadows · 20/08/2009 12:10

sorry mummylin! Of course, not everybody with pampas grass in their backgarden are swingers.

ruddynorah · 20/08/2009 12:16

do they even own the house? your ex neighbours probably sold out and signed up to one of these council schemes who of course have given it to these immigrants. so it's us hard working tax payers that are forking out for their £2500 a month rent. it's PC gone mad i tell thee.

ruddynorah · 20/08/2009 12:18

you do realise they'll go ahead and have another 10 kids then you'll be forced to hand over your house to them so they can knock through and have enough bedrooms? that's what happens don't you know? they steal houses off hard working brits.

mummylin2495 · 20/08/2009 12:21

goldfish qs ! how very dare you ,we have exquisite Koi i will have you know,maybe they like the pampass grass

QuintessentialShadows · 20/08/2009 12:23

Oh, sorry.
