to ask my neighbour to close his bathroom window so we don't have to hear him huffing & puffing whilst he does his gigantic shits?

It's getting ridiculous, we hear it in the morning at the breakfast table- even the plop. Weekends are even worse as I think he must store up a couple of days worth.

His bathroom window over looks our garden so sometimes we even get a lovely fragrant whiff.

we eat in the conservatory which is right by the window.

AIBU to leave a bottle of Dulcoploppy stuff on his doorstep with a note?

Sorry but I am PMSL at this.

Perhaps a loud cheer when you hear the 'plop' might get the message across...??

posieparker · 27/04/2010 20:50

Perhaps you should stand and clap!

BallpointPen · 27/04/2010 20:50

LMAO!

YANBU, do it.

Alicetheinvisible · 27/04/2010 20:50

Do you not get the giggles? I would be crying with laughter

CoupleofKooks · 27/04/2010 20:50

hahaha
oh dear

BigBadMummy · 27/04/2010 20:50

Love the idea of a cheer

Or how about shouting a score?

Poor guy is only doing what comes naturally I guess, but it is still

WorzselMummage · 27/04/2010 20:51

how sound you word your request ?

'Please tone down your shitting

Poo peacefully ?

McDreamy · 27/04/2010 20:51

I second the clapping

WorzselMummage · 27/04/2010 20:51

bloody iPhone

Well I was thinking a fruit basket but dh told me that was out of order and ridiculous. He finds it quite amusing, the kids get a bit freaked.

Some days it sounds like it is a breech one
(sorry TMI)

you could get this but it wouldn' stop the plopping

LittleMissHissyFit · 27/04/2010 20:55

Shouting a score? BBM, you rock!!

coppertop · 27/04/2010 20:55

Keep a copy of the Dam Busters theme in a CD player and play it loudly every time.

You would not find it amusing if it were you. The stranger thing is, he alters his pooing timetable to fit in with our eating times (well it seems like that anyway)

Agree with the cheering/clapping etc. it'll work.

SenokotSpy · 27/04/2010 20:58

The children's comments and shouting have not stopped the loud shitting so I'm not sure the clapping or score cards would.

I don't want to upset him, he mows my lawn.

pmsl @ "breech one"

I thought I had it bad because every single time I sit in a deckchair in my garden my neighbour cuts his lawn usisng the noisiest fucking petrol mower you have ever heard ! < chicken feed >

TheProvincialLady · 27/04/2010 21:02

Leave a note taped to your lawnmower. "Shot more quietly or we'll sack you" ought to do it.

AnyFucker · 27/04/2010 21:03

bloody hell, OP, perhaps we are neighbours !!!
