it has been horrid for years, i wont go into what has gone on, but it has got to the point where i hate coming home, i hate being in the garden if they are in theres... hate driving into road and they are stood out front...

problem is house ins local authority rented, if i was to move i would have to private rent.

but i feel my life is taken over with the burden of them... and feel i should move on to start living again

i know i sounds stupid and i shouldnt let it get to me but it does

I had psycho anti-social with a capital A neighbours. The first conversation I had with the female of the pair was her showing me how to get into my house should I ever lock my keys in.

Suffice to say we got burgled by them a few months in.

The day we moved out was a grand day and I still thank God now. I was close to a breakdown or murder

My friends downstairs neighbour in the flat below was a "Music Producer" and told them he had to play his music loudly as part of his job. Can t imagine what he was doing living in a Housing Association flat then because all he ever played was J-Lo and Beyonce. He must have been worth a fortune. On the second time of asking him politely to turn his music down he screamed in my friends face that he would have him "Dealt" with if he asked again. Cue a visit to the housing association and an emergency move.

YES!

More than once, unfortunately .

Loud music and domestic disputes were the main reasons.

In one case, we didn't have to move because the tenants were evicted after one too many call outs by the police for drunken arguing. Luckily, they also found their drug stash and as the couple were both on parole, they were thrown in prison where they belonged.

IMO, people get away with too much these days.

Yes - a wayward teenage son and mother who had lost control of him caused us to consider moving. He loved gangsta rap and we didn't! He loved his posse of scally mates and we didn't! When we complained he would egg our cars!

They actually moved before us but by then the love we had for our Victorian cottage had gone and we moved anyway - although it was much easier to sell without him living next door.

There are few things that I have found more stresssful than living next door to wankers.

it is nothing as bad as all that... just many run in's over the years and i have never felt comfortable here since.... we have been out all day today and i am fine whilst out but start to feel sick when driving home in case they are out the front, gossiping and being nosy which is what they do best, and bad mouth us to everyone... (they are proper gossips> the male being the worst)

i have had another thought that i may be able to get a key worker rental place which may save me some money, either way i defo want a fresh start somewhere..

I have just come home from a wedding reception which was held near were we used to live. I saw one of my old neighbours and all those horrible feelings swept over me, heart racing, sicky feelings. I am so glad I no longer have to deal with those feelings daily anymore, I feel for you
