Clearly not going to say much about the situation and that it is far enough away that those involved will not see the thread. Vextatious complaints. Harassment. Nasty.


If anyone can offer some free professional advice, or from their own expeience, please PM me.


Before the clever comments start this does not directly involve me, but has some knock in effects and from my perspective is bullying.


I have a good friend who is a senior police officer who has been helpful (sadly this situation is not that uncommon) but of course cannot get involved.

Bad neighbors are a pain, but as you know 'quantifying' the situation in order to get a result is very hard and wearing


I had this about 15 years ago, thankfully it only lasted 6 months and that was bad enough


However, the only way we found peace was to bring the situation to a head, forcing the issue and then resolving it collectively. It wasn't easy, but it couldn't be ignored


It has the potential to drive people to desperate measures. I used to fantasise about drilling a hole in our wall and randomly firing a gun through it or hiring a team of thugs to smash the place up


Thankfully the real world stepped in


Good luck

Thanks and I will post updates if I think this is of value.


My first house was ex-council in Abingdon. It was considered to be a rough area, but generally we were happy.


Then the neighbours went to work in Saudi leaving their late teenage kids behind and it became a nightmare. At the time there was a trend amongst this age for small motorbikes and the (what I call pyscobilly) look. Friday night was like being in Croydon or Bromley with gangs of youths walking about after the pubs shut looking for trouble. We even had a party which was crashed ending up in bottles being thrown and worse being used as hand held weapons.


This was all beyond myself and friends, but the police seemed to suggest it was a normal Saturday night.


You can imagine the relief when the 'for sale' sign went up. Perhaps the 'dispute' I am speaking about will only end when one party moves on.

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
