    Two to three times a week a taxi driver that lives in my estate pulls up outside my house and has a few fags and phone conversations(with the window open). Im a really light sleeper so he usually wakes me up.
    Do i have any rights to go tell him to feck off?

    Just seen him get out of the car still on his headpicece chatting away and start urinating at the other side of the car.

    He pays his road licence so he's entitled to park anywhere it's legal. He's not entitled to pee in public, but he has no work loo so I have some sympathy, but he should be much more careful not to be seen. If he's waking you up, he might keep it down if you ask him nicely, or keep the window closed while he's on the phone.

    No, i wish I did.

    He's taking the piss. You might want to talk to him.

    Put in a meter or no resting/parking sign or park your vehicle there.

    As soon as he pulls up acting the bóllocks, take the following steps

    1) Call his taxi company
    2) Order a for taxi to an address in the vicinity (so he ends up getting the job)
    3) Turn off phone so that they can't ring back to wake you up
    4) Smile as you get to go back to bed and he gets his time wasted.

    Bonus points if you send him to someones house who is likely to get pissed off and perhaps shoot him.

    This may require a large quantity of sim cards that you can 'burn' every time they company block your number

    Pay a few local kids to throw stones at him. He'll soon park elsewhere. €20.00 ought to sort it.

    Ah, this paints a different picture.

    He's on the phone to the mistress before he goes in to the wife. ;)

    He's having an affair. Chats to yer one outside your house then heads in home.

    It's obvious.

    If he lives on the estate why cant he park outside his own house and smoke his fag and do you know what

    Ah Candie :D We're not a bit suspicious :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,720 ✭✭✭Sir Arthur Daley


    So he is your neighbour all along or is it a call girl he is visiting? would explain the urination.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,971 ✭✭✭_Whimsical_


    Next time you see him in the shop or pub etc make some loud joke about how you know he's having an affair because he's outside your house chatting on the phone till all hours.
    He probably is having one too, who else would you be chatting to every night at that hour.

    The very suggestion or the fact that he'll think you're a nosy gossipy so and so will keep him away from your house I'd say.

    Me and Chucken cracked the case like we're the mutant love children of Sherlock Holmes and Miss Marple.

    Great minds Chuck, great minds. ;)

    Maybe he's having an affair


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 687 ✭✭✭megapixel


    Hes a neighbour, but i work long hours and do not know anyone in the estate except the adjoining houses.

    Not sure how to start the conversation.. Ive had images of me running out in my dressing gown like a mad woman telling him to feck off etc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,459 ✭✭✭Chucken

    Wish I'd thought of that.

    Well now that we've established he's having an affair, what you need to do is eavesdrop on his chats.

    Go to the front door and shout "She must be some woman to get ya on the phone every night like this , does your wife know???"... big smile and a haha.

    He'll think you're a nosy cow and you'll never see him again.

    I have cctv cameras, i'll upgrade them so i can record his phone calls and blackmail him.:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,971 ✭✭✭_Whimsical_


    Or alternatively, walk out some night and politely explain and he'll probably stop parking there. He might think you're a bit weird but you'll be sleeping through the night so you won't care what random taxi man thinks.

    Have you a sign up saying you have cctv?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,410 ✭✭✭old_aussie


    Get in the taxi, and give him his own address to be driven to.

    Check the look on his face.

    Ah no need for that.




    Just go stand in the garden and listen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,816 ✭✭✭lulu1


    Get someone to park an old banger in front of his drive way and block him in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,410 ✭✭✭old_aussie


    Look his home number up in the phonebook.

    Then when he's outside,

    put on your sexiest voice and phone his home number and ask for him, with something like...hi sweetie, I'm waiting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    This is like AH Soap...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,720 ✭✭✭Sir Arthur Daley


    I would buy a super soaker, fill it with stale piss and blast him with it when he urinates, get a gang together more super soakers the better. urinating in an estate is disgusting.

    Leave a note outside saying you're a light sleeper (add some crap about the window not shutting properly if you want) and would prefer if he didn't stop outside your house. Maybe leave a Mars bar to soften the blow if he's the grouchy type.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 687 ✭✭✭megapixel


    Thanks for all the advise


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,113 ✭✭✭shruikan2553


    Watch him and make sure he sees you. Extra points for binoculars. He'll feel uncomfortable and move elsewhere.

    The other option is stand outside his house and do what he does.

    Give him no mars bar or he will expect one every day


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 166 ✭✭popolive


    cut out the letters from a newspaper arrange them to say ''I kNoW eVeRyThInG'' , get some Pritt Stick and glue them together ''ransom note'' style and mail it to him :D

    Now that I think about it, you might make him associate waking you up with Mars bars. Next thing you know, six weeks later he's throwing bricks through your window every night to get his sweets and you're pauperised from having to spend your wages on chocolate and window repairs.

    Piss and slashed tyres aside. Point ur own car lights at him full beam.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    Sh!t in the air filter.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Fly a massive Nigerian flag outside your place if he's an Irish taxi driver. I don't need to tell you why it will work, it just will.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 18,184 ✭✭✭✭Lapin


    Maybe he's having an affair

    Or maybe his wife is.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 391 ✭✭partay pooper


    Maybe he's have an affair with whoever lives in the house across the green? He was ringing to get the all clear?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,954 ✭✭✭Tail Docker

    Very true, totally taking the Pi55.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭Maphisto

    Call girls don't have lavatories?

    He's not into urolagnia?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,379 ✭✭✭CarrickMcJoe


    When he throws out his cigarette butt, run out and throw it back in preferably on the back seat.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,009 ✭✭✭umop.episdn


    Just wait until the next time he does it, open your window & shout out that he's woken you up again, that you're normally polite, but not when you're sleep deprived, then a little fck off & park outside your own house ya taxi driving priiiickkk!
