to want to take all the broken bottles

[Kaloki]

and the rubbish left outside our house by the idiots last night and pile it up on their doorstep?

There's glass and bottle caps and empty bottles all over the road Most of the glass was smashed when they were throwing bottles at our wall at 2am.

Clean it up for them? No way. I'd be tempted to knock and point it out though, and get them to do it themselves! Broken glass is dangerous for animals and children. Isn't there some kind of fine for littering like this?

Wouldn't want to talk to them. We've had run ins with them already - just because of how we dress. So wouldn't feel safe confronting them. Especially as they know where we live.

Poor you - they sound really charming

Would a quick call to the police (I don't mean 999 - just to the local station) be an option? It's littering and dangerous to boot. Horribly unsociable.

I would report them to the police. Do you live in a house or a flat? If it is a flat ring your landlady, we had this last year and the obnoxious little cows next door were kicked out pretty sharpish.

If it is a house and you know they rent privately or from the council..same thing I imagine. Get the fuckers kicked out.

Taks pictures before they do any tidying..and DON'T you dare do any tidying yourself!

I am assuming they rent, because people tend not to be too disgusting in their OWN homes, but happily abuse other people's property.

A rented house or flat is still a home.

YANBU. I'd have great delight in sweeping it up (that appeals to the neat-freak in me, who doesn't want her children to step on broken glass), depositing it on their doorstep (that appeals to the Mrs Angry in me) and then watching when they try and leave their house with and on their faces. Unless you could prove it was them, you'd get nowhere with the Police or Council, and would have to wait until it was cleaned up by the street cleaners. I once returned the dog turd my neighbour's dog left on my garden - had no hesitation in returning it to the doorstep of it's rightful owner.

Sanielle couldnt disagree with you more, you assume it must be rented because they happily made a mess and people who own their own homes would never do something like this?

Ok then

Oldlady im afraid you do know something - very well said!

OP i would take photos of the mess, and any future mess, and keep a journal of any 'incidents'

phone the council to come and clean up the mess, glass everywhere is dangerous.

Do you have a community policing team? Try and get a phone number for them and im sure they will be very helpful!

We called 999 last night, as it sounded like it was all kicking off. Going to ring the local station tomorrow, and we have a number for something to do with safer neighbourhoods.

As far as we know they own, as they don't go through our letting agent (very small village, most let property does)

Would love them to leave though.
On top of all this, we suspect they tried to break in the other night, and have chased DP down the road. We've already reported them t the police (weeks ago) for openly dealing drugs

Would be a perfect place to live if it wasn't for them!

Yes, I was obviously saying people who rent (like myself) treat everything like shit.. and don't call their homes home...

My point is that these sort of people are less likely to ruin their own stuff.. and that if they are renting the OP might be able to help herself even when the police don't help....

Anyway..... OP hope you get this all sorted out as it sounds a nightmere!

Sanielle you disgust me. I'm a tenant in a rented house (saving for a deposit) and if anything I'm MORE careful over fixtures and fittings than I would be in my own house - because it only takes one bad report to get back to the LL and we'd be served our marching orders. Most people who rent are the same way - because we know the roofs over our head are precarious and don't want to have to house hunt again (and be treated like potential criminals like we normally are when we have to do this).

We ring up with things that might need attention as soon as we notice them, I've got rugs over as much of the carpet as possible to try to keep them in "never been walked on by human foot" condition - spend half my life flapping about anything being out of place.... yet ignoramuses like you come on here and assume that because I'm not mortgaged up to my eyeballs in debt - I'm some kind of subhuman busily smearing faeces over the walls.

I think you have some apologizing to do - but I doubt someone as ignorant and prejudiced as you obviously are will do that.

I can see sanielle's point, some people do take less care of rented property than they would if they owned it themselves as they assume (rightly) that someone else will be hired to clean up their mess at the end of the tenancy, and know that it'll only result in a loss of their deposit.. However it works the other way too.

Either way though, these fuckwits I'm stuck dealing with aren't destroying their house, they're throwing bottles around in the street.

So last night they threw bottles at our door

I think you need to keep a log of these incidents and keep reporting them to the police or the local council. It is anti-social behaviour
Sorry these people are making your lies such a misery, Kaloki.

And Sanielle - that is an astoundingly ignorant assumption you have made!

Astoundingly ignorant?
Get over yourself,

Kaloki hope you have taken pictures! Could you get a cctv camera?

'I am assuming they rent, because people tend not to be too disgusting in their OWN homes, but happily abuse other people's property.'

It is a astoundingly ignorant assumption - and from someone who rents too! So I think it is you that needs to go over yourself, Sanielle.

Got photos of the smashed bottles and damage to the door. Can't afford a CCTV camera

I'm really sorry you aren't getting a bit more practical help here, I think AIBU seems to be more about sad people jumping down people's throats!

Have you called the police again? I would make sure I called the non emergency number EVERY time I had an issue. Maybe if you annoy them more you might some help!

I'm so pissed off for you, Kaloki!
