People keep having sex in my hedge...

I guess it's more of a WWYD as I know I'm NBU but every few nights people (I assume the same two) keep having sex in the hedge which divides my back garden from the road behind. It's pretty brazen because there's no real cover to hide under!
Every few nights I'll be out sitting with my new rescue dog and letting her potter about and I'll hear my hedge making groany sex noises. I'm so tempted to cough loudly or say something but for some reason I just keep quiet and feel weird listening to other people's sex noises!
So I guess more for fun, I ask you, what would you do?

Make a bed of whoppee cushions. Cover it with a blanket. Leave a packet of fags, some wet wipes and a small bin. Make it look inviting. Enjoy the giggles when they action sets off a dozen whooppees.

OP, please don't get your hedge-trimmers out. Go with the water thing.

Butterymuffin · 25/06/2018 19:21

Set your garden sprinkler to start working on a timer just after they usually get down to it.

I can see / hear it now...

Her: I'm soaking
Him: That's what I like to hear
Her: It's not you, you bloody idiot, I've just sat on the sprinkler!

BlueJava · 25/06/2018 19:25

Put some dog poo in it. Perhaps for next year plant something prickly if it's a regular thing!

NotAnotherNoughtiesTune · 25/06/2018 19:28

That was an unfortunate typo considering Grin

Omg this thread has me in stitches!

eurgh · 25/06/2018 19:29

These comments have made my day! I'll be out with the dog later (she's scared of daytime and doesn't really know how to dog so we do all our outside activity under the cover of twilight and darkness) as usual so will inform you if they appear. I don't think it's prostitutes/clients - in fact, grossly I'm starting to be able to recognise them by sex noise so I know it's the same people each time. Boak.

I've never heard any of my local hedgehogs ask for a finger in the bum...

OK, and at that point I lost it.

Play them Right Said Fred's I'm too sexy?

Thank heavens you're not lip reading. If you can manage that, you're way too close!

Why don't you put up a notice board saying 'Dogging Zone - £10.00 per hour' then a note underneath saying 'Sir, you currently owe 50p' :-)

SickOfSitting · 25/06/2018 19:33

How about "let's talk about sex baby, let's talk about you and me, let's talk about all the good things and the bad things..." playing loudly! Grin

Or George Michael "I want your sex.." GrinGrin

@eurgh Whatever you say, you need to say it in your best Batman voice.

StrangeLookingParasite · 25/06/2018 19:36

Or

StrangeLookingParasite · 25/06/2018 19:36

(Oh, language and crassness warning for the above song)

NotAnotherNoughtiesTune · 25/06/2018 19:36

Play this song for them OP.

TornFromTheInside · 25/06/2018 19:37

I wonder if the bloke is called Russell?

NotAnotherNoughtiesTune · 25/06/2018 19:38

@TornFromTheInside yep and she's called Holly.

sparklepops123 · 25/06/2018 19:40

Maybe they’ll branch out and go somewhere else 🤔

TornFromTheInside · 25/06/2018 19:41

At least after sex, she can truly say she's bushed!

MiddleClassProblem · 25/06/2018 19:41

Is it a village?

Cagliostro · 25/06/2018 19:42

I have a now elderly labrador who, when still in his youth, once found a shagging young couple next to a hedge and ran up to lick them all over.

First time I read that I totally missed that it was referring to a dog, not a person

BringMeTea · 25/06/2018 19:42

Bowl of water. Buy a hose at your earliest convenience. Boak.

Teachtolive · 25/06/2018 19:43

Sow a section of the hedge with Pyracantha instead. If that doesn't get rid of them nothing will!

chocolateworshipper · 25/06/2018 19:43

Either stick on some Luther Vandross, or shout loudly "get out of my bush"

Thesearepearls · 25/06/2018 19:44

Get up offa that hedge ...
