Oddball Neighbours

I lived next to an old guy who would stand in the garden at all hours and beltch loudly.

Was he naked? Just trying to build up an image you understand

I had an neighbour and although not exactly odd, the only time I ever saw him or talked to him was when he poked his head over the fence separating our backyards. Always wore the same hat. In fairness to the man, he gave me sagely advice on numerous occasions.

OP.
This is the problem for alot of people living in apartments.
You should up size to a detached house in some leafy suburbs and have not a bother in the world as long as the developer at the time didn't allow social housing units be part of the agreement your good to go.

apartments are the worst for noise...but its all about aclimbatising to it..

Especially if you live on the top floor and the lifts are broken!:pac:

Yeah same in my flat, when you turn the tap on its like VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOM, and I get up at 6am so I bet I annoy the hell out of my neighbours.

Was getting in the lift once when my neighbour came out of it, nice puddle of piss in the left hand corner, pretty sure it was him,.

There was this old man who lived on my parents road and for years he'd only ever cut his grass at about 11 at night and it was with one of the old push lawn mores too and he used to always do it in his dressing gown!

Theres a family that lives on my road and each and every one of them is MENTAL! , the mother barks out the window like a dog, and sometimes they whole family like to play a game of kerbs out on the street whilst chanting passive aggressive things such as '' WE ARE FAIR'' whilst giving all the neighbours daggers

We had a nice Bangladeshi family move in next door to us....

They were nice enough, always said 'hello' if you met them on the street. We could never figure out how many people actually lived there, but you would always see a big gang (at least 10 women) either arriving or leaving at the same time. We thought it a bit strange that they never went anywhere alone, always the big gang

There was also a constant taptaptaptaptaptap that sounded like 2 bits of metal being banged together, but we could never figure out what was causing it.

Our curiosity was finally satisfied the day they got raided for running an illegal sewing factory, complete with illegal immigrant employees from a 3 bed council house:eek:. The big group of ladies arriving/leaving at the same time was obviously the shift change-over. They all got carted off by immigration officers in a big blue mini-bus, never to be seen again......

Not oddball, but not what you'd expect in a residential street....

Also had a neighbour that used to get hammered drunk, take off his shirt and attack his wheelie bin with nun-chucks and flying karate kicks, thinking he was Bruce Lee. He'd be so drunk, he's be hitting himself in the face and his own back with the nun-chucks and not even notice. We'd see him the next day, and he'd be after giving himself 2 black eyes and not a clue where he got them lol

Luckily enough, the good Lord invented Country Estates with long driveways and big trees. Unless one of the neighbours starts shooting off a cannon or fits air-horns on their roof, there's feck all chance of them doing anything to disturb me. There's a lot to be said for having a 10 acre front garden.:)

Ahh, but look at all the free entertainment you miss out on?:D

This thread reminds me of this:
