Name changed in case she's on mumsnet
Don't know NDN well. We are quiet and (I thought!) inoffensive so no issues for the last 6 months we've lived here. There's a low fence between our gardens.
Given that I live in the west of scotland, it's a rare opportunity to hang clothes out on the line to dry, which DH and I have been doing the past few days.
Today NDN appeared at the door and asked me to "be more careful" with my laundry. I initially thought something had blown into her garden and apologised. She said no, that us hanging out "personal items" was embarrassing for her and she didn't want her young sons (who are late primary age I think) seeing things like that. After clarifying she meant bras and knickers I admit I snorted with laughter a bit and said "but don't they see YOUR pants drying indoors!?" to which she said that I clearly didn't want to help and that she'd ask her DH to come over later to speak to my DH once he's in from work!
I have not brought my laundry in and have just done another load. She's glaring from her conservatory. AIBU to ignore her? Or should I bring my offensive undies in off the line?

Or is my neighbour about my laundry...?

Zebra I hear you!
Enjoy your laundry 
. Stringing a line and tying clothes to it is called 'camping drying' for us.
It's raining here, which is really, really weird this time of year. So it's the tumble dryer for me!

Annoyingly I can't get my old Guide Handbook to put in the picture - you twist together two strands of string (or something more heavy-duty) so you get little loops you can poke fabric through. Is YEARS since I've camped now though - we take the Brownies away INDOORS (though spend heaps of time outdoors, weather permitting...)

It's basically been thunder-central in London since start Bank Holiday weekend, so I'm guessing your pants are not the only ones that have been struck by lightning. I reckon you could get a Netflix Series out of the adventures of the unlikely group of people united by their lightning!pants

Ha... didn't think to search that, searched other things... no idea they were [now] commercially available products either
