Hard one - I can see both points of view. Tbh the way the snow is hear, it will be lucky if it lasts until evening.

YANBU, tell them to stop trespassing on your property

FimbotheCHEVVYHUN · 18/12/2009 14:55

Mind you the kids next door shouldn't be in your garden surely?

tell them to get off your snow because they're ruining it for your kids.

of course, the sensible grown-up thing would be to suggest that they help your kids build the snowman.

One day your kids will do the same to their snow, so let it go ...

Do your children play on all of the garden at times?

If so I guess it´s shared.

If you don´t want that, get a fence!

At least it isn't yellow snow!

don't do a Tony Martin

I started a thread like this morning... next doors kids reduced all 'our' lovely snow to snowy grass by 9am this morning however seeing as we usually let them play/use our front garden I could hardly complain.
Contemplated using nice snow in back garden to make a small army of threatening looking snowmen to stare down theirs but my 3 year old wasn't interested...

yay I won!
