Mine keep peeking round the corner to see what we’re up to.

Drives me nuts.

"have you heard the latest thing about the disease?"

Yes, mothafukkah, I've heard it all

Got some cringeworthy text on the neighbors group about how amazing it would be to all put candles in our front windows..

My neighbours keep mooing and sh*tting all over the place. What has the world come to.

There is nothing more maddening than idiot relatives sending you the latest "my friend Audrey has a brother, whose dog once **** on the lawn of a man who's best friend drives a car for Leo aaaand".

Don't be like Audrey.

Fairly sure my neighbours will need the guards called. We can hear arguing from them the odd time, but it's starting to escalate quite a bit now they're cooped up more.

Bitch next door ran her pressure washer from 10 to 3:30. None of us could have the windows open. It came close to me throwing eggs at her to send a message.

Was she not just power hosing the driveway? Seems like a productive thing to do with 5 hours at a time like this. She sounds like a solid asset.

Back garden slabs. Could think of her neighbors and do it when it’s cold and miserable out.

Ive definitely noticed a major change in mood on my road, Im in a cul de sac.

I said hello to a lad 2 doors up yesterday, normally always very friendly and would always says hello back prior to the covid-19 crisis , just had a blank look on his face and ignored me, got into his car and drove off.

People are either in shock and also maybe suffering cabin fever plus with todays news that the lockdown going on until April 19th doesnt help matters.

My dream ,I live in a built up estate , between African neighbours arguing( only one of the 5 families),Irish drink parties,dogs barking ,and cats ****ting in the garden it can be awful, although in fairness minus the dogs it's been manageable the last week or so

My neighbours are grand, but I don't like having them home all day cause we're the noisy ones.

Strange, people are more friendly where I am. Spoken to people I barely get acknowledgement from normally. Notice the nod and hello of old Ireland is back when people are passing in the street, you love to see it

Sorry Jill, we'll keep a lid on it from now on.

Went to bring the dogs for a walk after work this afternoon and there was a woman up road standing out the front talking to her next door neighbour, both of them were wearing their pajamas. Then her daughter came out to join them and she was in her pajamas too.

Are things so bad that people aren't bothering to get dressed now?

I am drilling a lot recently as I bought a new house recently and work needs to be completed not because of the virus. I overheard my neighbour "jesus he is at the drill again" they are home all day now I noticed not going to work I feel sorry for them having to listen to me working away so I am trying to keep noise to minimum.

NSAman

My Italian neighbours are high risk. We live in the middle of nowhere... they live 500 meters away.

Their kids and grandkids live far away and cannot be here for Easter...

They have 3 freezers of food that has to be eaten..

Each evening the phone rings and dinner is served outside on the porch.

At this rate my heart is going to give out before any virus gets me.

Nothing like having great neighbours... I pity those that do not..;)

tringle

Chainsaw/pressure washer/power tool of some sort all day. Normally only at the weekends but now he is at home all day... And so too am i.
Not as bad as listening to my other half screaming at people on the phone all day though. He always works from home, im usually gone.

Nollog

My area's been much quieter the last week. The road isnt being dug up for IW pipes, no gas works anymore, OH had a word with noisy neighbours (noisy before covid), no drilling downstairs by whoever that landlord hired to do up a recently vacated apartment, a dog still pining reverberating through the hallway but that's not covid related either.
Also, no blindingly bright hotel car park light he last few nights, so pretty good here.

I don’t get it, are you annoyed that they are singing out of tune or that they are singing?

the bad singing - and then also the out of tune singing. Its like listening to an army marching with a few people stomping out of step every time. After a few hours of that and off key yowling it begins to hurt my soul. The God factor I don’t mind - got a miracle lately when my car passed the NCT so feeling good!!

some child or insane adult COLOURED IN WITh CHAlK about 40 foot of road. How bored or insane would you need to be to do that ( if you were an adult) . And how did the mother or father not notice their toddler gone for that length of time onto a road. Assuming it wasn’t an insane mother or driven to chalk father.

Are you one of them people constantly outside your house though, i have neighbours like that, sitting outside or always up to something, if not looking for attention since day 1, my attention is immediately drawn to them, drives me fcuking nuts. Hope they move ha

If animals can get corona I hope the f*ck the neighbours dog gets it. Bad enough before but now people dropping their kids off from about 7am and she is leaving the psychotic little 1/2 breed out a lot more and this thing barks every time a sparrow farts.

Nothings changed in my neighborhood. Most seem to be going about their lives quietly, and for that I'm thankful.

No it's fairly common. I like to think they sleep in ball gowns and then walk the streets in their PJs

Complete waste of water washing the ground, never mind jet washing it!, it's supposed to be dirty.

One of my neighbours keeps telling everyone that this is just a new strain of the flu, and only a couple of people have died... so what is the big deal basically.

Everyone just ignores them and walks away. But you can see people are getting frustrated with the sheer stupidity and ignorance of their remarks!

Some people cannot see anything beyond a meter or two in front of their own face. If it's not directly affecting them or their immediate family/friends, then it's nothing to worry about. Brainless uncaring gobsh!tes!

Gardening 7 days a week now instead of 2. They ****ing love it. Also frowning disdainfully at my garden, but they’d be doing that anyway.

You don’t need to power wash a driveway 4 times a week.

You said gardening.

I don't believe you that anyone is power washing their driveway four times a week.

And believe what you like, or don’t. I couldn’t give a ****. I wasn’t looking for your approval of the post.

What’s wrong with gardening?


Pull up your socks and sort out your rubbish tip, you’re letting the area down!

There is zero rubbish at my house you presumptuous little cretin. The hedges are cut and the lawn is mowed. These obsessives just want me to have plants and flowers which I have absolutely no interest in growing or minding.

I just don’t like gardening. In much the same way that not everyone likes to do the same things you like.

Have you actually spoken to your neighbours, have they actually said to you that you need to have plants and flowers in your garden?

Power washing is not part of gardening.

You must be cooped up so long you are making up your own definitions.

It’s all yard work/gardening.
