Well after a few weeks of nothing, me and my sister went to tesco, when we got back they were all outside and threw waterbombs at us, making strange noises, comments and when DH opened the door they said 'get back inside you pussy' remind me why I am putting u0p with this............

Are these adults throwing waterbombs? We've had a spate of kids throwing them round here.

Horrible situation.

Just smile serenely at them and think of your new house

I don't even look at them, I just ignore them, is that the right thing to do???

OP posts:
SoupDragon · 21/07/2005 18:23

Yeah, I think so.

Tempting as it would be to smile serenely, wave and say "good morning! Isn't it a lovely day." in a cheerful voce, it's better to ignore them.

SoupDragon · 21/07/2005 18:24

Try not to scurry or look as if it's bothered you though. Easier said than done.

I just walk in normally, I don't let them see me scared, I know what they are trying to do, they see that DH is scared to go out and they are trying to scare me into not going out too........ Pathetic twats!!!!!

Personally I think it would spur them on to other things. like kicking in fence panels.

I just want to go up to them and said 'you do realise that what you are doing is breaking about 7 rules of your parent's tenant agreement' but that will make it worse

did think about taking the page out of the tenants handbook and underlining all the rules they are breaking and posting it through the door

If it happens again just maintain eye contact with whoever you are with keep talking to them and laugh if you can.
Totally ignore their presence. They'll expect you to look at them.

normally I have the kids with me, so I just keep talking to them, I just blank them, I don't look at them and just walk into the house, I thought they might be bored by now............
