Would you call the police if neighbours had family round?

[Baileysforchristmas]

Just wondering if people will still call the police if next door had more than 2 households not in the garden?

But you can have family round now

It's 2 households OR 6 people. Enjoy your day hopefully this puts your mum's mind at rest

@BigSandyBalls2015

in the garden though, not indoors Grumpsausage, strictly speaking

Yes, youre right. Missed the 'not in garden bit' on OP's post.

I wouldn't report anyone but I would be a bit 😒.

Roll your eyes all you like. My best mates wife is currently bed ridden due to long COVID and someone I work with died.

Yes 2 members of our household caught Covid only gone to work . I still wouldn’t call the police on neighbours if they had 2 households outside round .

My neighbours have lots of people camping overnight in their garden. We are rural so I expect they think they won’t get caught.
I won’t be reporting them , I happen to know they have a toilet right by the back door so no need to go in the house. Not sure if risk is any higher seeing people for longer. Can’t think it can be scientifically.

OP specifically said not outside.

That’s good to hear, I have Mum and Dad, my son and his girlfriend coming for lunch today, my mums worried we’re all going to get arrested 😂 my neighbours are lovely so don’t think they will care but just worried what others would think.

Regardless of the neighbours, having 6 people in the garden is ok?

You do know everything is loosening up now, a d will continue to do so over the next few weeks until it’s fully open right? You’re going to have to try to mentally adjust to it.

No

Missed that bit, in that case yes I would report and so would others.

Ah I misread the OP as in the garden

I don't take any notice of what my neighbours do. Not my business.

You and loads of others. Rules are relaxing now, you're gonna have to get used to it. In a couple of months time we will be mixing indoors.

No. I would only call the police if I witnessed a burglary or violence. Maybe if a house was empty and I heard sounds from within during the night. Certainly not for people entertaining two households. However, me being me, I probably wouldn't notice anyway.

I think some people will genuinely struggle with it over the next few weeks, the vast majority will just crack on but a small amount of peoooe will find themselves really not wishing normal life to return for them or anyone else.

Noooooo

No, but then I never would have. Call the police on our neighbours indeed. I wouldn’t call the law on my neighbours unless they were actually doing something that was hurting me or someone else, because, ya know, I have to live near them. That and I’m not a twat.

All my neighbours have had friends over all the way through lockdown. I do stand at the window feeling annoyed, but I don’t do anything about it. We are in an area with a consistently higher Covid rate than average btw.

I probably would not but is there a reason why you don't think the rules apply to you, op?

I have friends who were grassed up by the neighbours. No arrests but fines.

Lol at all the people who would call the police - the police will do nothing, they don’t even have the resources to respond to actual crimes 😂 hope it gives you the sad little thrill you seem to crave though. Happy Easter OP

@TheImber

OP. I'm sorry but it's people like you who have put us in the situation we are in.

Not following the rules because you think you are 'special' and don't have to.

Maybe take a trip to a COVID ward and see where that attitude has got people.

I despair for humanity because of idiots like you and others on this thread who think its 'okay' to put others at risk for their own selfish reasons.

I've just pulled out the covid bingo card and crossed quite a few off reading this post.

Putting people at risk of serious illness is hurting others you chump.

I suppose these attitudes are why the UK has had more than 127,000 people die of Covid.

No. My NDN have regularly have had people round throughout, today it appears as though they are having a church meeting in the garden, I'd say at least 15 people. Annoys me as both DH and I work for NHS so feels like a kick in the teeth, but they're nice people, and I'm not a snitch! What can you do! I've got to live here for the foreseeable
