We had some of the same here in our road and we suffered it for four years.  The police had been involved for several things over those years but nothing concrete was ever done until...we decided to take matters into our own hands.  We contacted the Anti Social Behaviour Team. The neighbours around us were always complaining and talking but just among themselves but when we told them that the ASB Team needed their help also...yes you’ve guessed...they wouldn’t commit.  However we ourselves proceeded witht the ASB Team and they were absolutely fantastic in getting it all sorted and through them the police had to deal with stuff that they had not before.  So now we have no problems with the family in question and the street is a much better place again....AND THE NEIGHBOURS WHO WOULDN’T BACK US UP ARE ALL HAPPY NOW.  It really taught us who you could depend on and they can all go and jump next time problems arise.
That’s my moan for today ladies.... tongue laugh

I can’t believe that! He chose your garden cos it was sunny and his wasn’t! If I didn’t know better I’d think this was a joke! Here’s hoping he doesn’t pop over again.

People are truely incredible. We finally live in a quite area with no anti-social problems. However now we’ve had 2 neighbours complain about where a friend of ours has parked his car. Our street is semi-detached houses with drives. 1st time he parked next to our car but his car was in front of next doors house (not blocking drive). She came round and asked if he’d move cos her boyfriend wanted to park there. So our friend moved to in front of our other neighbours house. Then the bloke from opposite this house came over and asked him to move cos he couldn’t get his car out of his drive!

On observing him...he reverses out of his drive and almost goes into the wall of our next door neighbours garden. It is a wide enough street to do any manoevere and there are hardly any cars. Cheeky bloke. Oh and it is only a small street so no-one has far to walk if you cannot park outside your own house! Lots of other niggly things too...about things that were done before we moved here e.g our security lights and gravel on the driveway. We’ve been here 2yrs but most people have been here more than 40yrs. But we are trying to be polite about it...moan over!  grin

Hi, my brother has got a friend who lives in a little village called Debden and he has a thatched cottage and the nearest neighbour is a mile away in the distance.

They are well off but still go off to work but in the village is a shop, a post office and a pub that is only open four hours a day.  You have to leave the pub early (before dark) because there are no lights outside so it is pitch black.  My brother said he could not see his hand in front of his face.  Even his mate could not find his way home. 

They have regular fetes and markets of local produce, it sounds like heaven! 

Envious or what!

Love Sues

I’ve moved 3 times cos of neighbours.  We seem to have nice at the moment, but the house next door is empty and I dread anyone moving in.
