our neighbour and his kids are in our garden

[thereisfreedomwithin]

We usually let them come in and use the swing. The kids usually come and ask.

Today he's just done it - I guess he's feeling pretty desperate to entertain them (3 year old twins and a 5 year old).

What do I do?

It actually looks nice from my window in their garden too :)

wild garlic anyone?

about another three weeks - should be tasty.

This is one of the rare threads where the OP is the most sensible poster. You are clearly a very decent person and lovely neighbour.

lol forkfun, it's more that we are going to be stuck with each other for a long long time!!!!

Ahh, this is a nice ending. OP, you sound lovely.

WILD GARLIC IS THE BEST!

I can't believe some of the replies in here. Some people are joyless buggers! Good on you OP. Much better to be neighbourly and let the poor guy use your swing than cause a fuss and fall out.

Lovely update. How kind you are, thereisfreedom.

Hope your hammock arrives swiftly, and you all have a good summer despite the circumstances.

Bless you for giving them the swing, we all need to rally around for each other now more than ever. Xx

How kind and a good practical solution. Someone came into our garden at about 5am - I heard the gate and it was wide open this morning but I didn't see anything - may be they just decided to open it. When I closed it today I covered my hands up. A lot of super spreaders or potential ones (children ) seem around today near us because they aren't in school. I wonder if infection risks are higher now they are in the community.

loving how everyone is distracted from the main subject matter of the thread by the longing for wild garlic :)

That’s lovely OP, I hope that they were grateful. You’re Ds will love the hammock.

What is the matter with you, freedomwithin, being all reasonable and kind?

Have you no idea where you are and who you are sharing a thread with?

We want DRAMA!

We want WATER BOMBS "accidentally" dropped onto swinging babies!

We want SWING WARZ!

You've done a lovely thing freedomwithin - your neighbour will thank you for it - and so will the garlic. will thank you for it.

That was really nice of you OP.

*Sorry - don't know how I managed two "thank you for it"s

That's a perfect solution, OP. Now if you felt like sending some of that wild garlic my way...

Wtf-people saying OP should give property away to some dude who chose to have a load of kids? Er, no. His kids are his problem, tell him he needs to stay in his own house and garden, obviously.

metal is the worst lasts longer than other surfaces

didnt see update nice one

He is coming to your house
The answer is no. Lockdown is lockdown

This. Seriously, how hard is it to understand?!

Just.
Say.
No!!

Oops, sorry, just seen there's been an update.....

Zammo!!. We need him back ASAP!!

Dammit

A reasonable poster and no diagram.

Lovely update OP. And well done to your 14 year old for agreeing (if they did agree??)
