Ways of dealing with neighbours...

[Pat Ferrett]

My Brother in law (Nick) had a neighbour that burnt building waste in his garden after dark so the black smoke couldnt be seen He asked him not to bother as it was filling their house up with smoke and on 1 occassion even set the firealarm off but the bloke still had a fire at least once a week. this went on for a couple of months and one night Nick lost his rag got out of bed bollock naked telling my sister that he was going to pull the blokes arms off and beat him to death with the soggy ends He thundered down the stairs virtualy screaming and into the garden, then it all went quiet my sister could work out what had happend so went down to find Nick sat on the floor of the kitchen with tears in his eyes holding his foot " whats wrong??" she asked

"I made it out the door and half way down the garden and stood on a bloody Hedge Hog"

know that feeling! We are doing same, house has been on market for a year with just one viewing though. Both sides of neighbours are probably about 90% of the reason for moving too

 

 

 

Have you looked at the price of houses in cumbria??!! Having enough trouble convincing the morgage people to lend us for what we have now, nevermind a detatched house or a farm!! It's the same story the country over but in Cumbria it is quite bad.

 

Prices are indeed nutty at moment I agree,tried for ages to get mortgage,however as never lent penny in my life I don't have a credit rating haha.Our old neighbour was a chav nugget with loud music every hour of everyday,I started chainsaw carving every day at that point.Stay chilled pad ain't worth busting blood vessell over a one off.If becomes regular we should organize a saw off in your garden haha.

Nutty is an understatement!

 

Decided I might just park their cars upside down on that crappy patio with the forwarder anyway, and accidently run over all the dogs on the way out!

Got bored of not having enough rain and mud in my life so made the move accross here about 8 year ago. Living near Grange over Sands at the moment...until we finally get rid of this house! Where you at?

I used toi live next door to some mature (professional) students who regularly got back from te pub and played King Crimson at deafening levels. After several attempts to reason with them, I got rather irate and wound up the Alsation and sent him in. The next time it happened, I took the dog again and they went quiet quick!

I'm glad someone else has noisy neighbours. If hes not drilling on our joining wall (the side of our house where our 2 sons sleep aged 4 and 1) shes up 3 times a day hovering(OCD i think). What makes me smile is that she as fat as a elephant, he aint much better and all the noisy work they do is on a house they dont own. and one letter to the right department could get them kicked out. The only problem with this is what idiot moves in next. just grin and bear it or give em the same treatment and get your son to bang on the wall for half an hour before he goes to bed

 

We live in a tiny semi with paper thin walls and get on great with our neighbours. Having said that I'm probably the noisiest in the street.

Luckily I don't have to put up with HOVERING neighbours:001_tongue:
