    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.

    He has just left outside my house driven around the green and gone into his own house. :eek:

    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

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

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

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

    Check the look on his face.
