    @Linz, so sorry for your losses. Your poor Ginger Boi, I had a beauty of one we had to put down a few years ago

    I hope you can escape from the awful neighbours soon and you can get some peace in your life.

      Go to "car tax checker" and report him, you can also phone DVLA enforcement and report it, if no MOT then that will have to be reported to the police, you don't have to leave your name with police or DVLA ;)

        I agree with a lot of what's being said @Linz . I feel badly for you losing your little friends. It's always shocking just how much it hurts.

        As to the neighbours, that is terrible. The burning rubbish should not be tolerated and it wouldn't cost them to be forced to properly put out the garbage for pick up. The automobile problems, I'm thinking that they perhaps can't afford the insurance and if that is so, the money shortage could be a large contributor to the fighting. If they are as lazy as they sound, heaping more financial woes on them isn't going to make them secure their children properly when going out in the car.
        Would reporting them cause even worse domestic situations that would then cascade down to the children and cause them more suffering?
        Tough one to figure.

        You are probably safest to move. And sad that you have to put up with this nastiness.

              oh @Linz I just read your post and it made me cry. I feel so bad for you. I don't know how you cope in that situation. When you want to grieve it's the last thing you want to have to deal with. I recall snapping at a lad on the "quiet" carriage on a train after I had to put our dog to sleep. His headphones were so loud I just snapped and pulled them out his ears. He's lucky I didn't kill him mind. Anyway, I just hope the situation gets better for you. Must be so stressful living next door to that sh** going on. :grphg:

                And you, @Snorky85 will now have the bit of privacy back. :) Good on you for standing up for yourself!

                  My take on this is they were embarrassed, looked like idiots and stormed off in a huff. Happy days, they probably won't be back :)

                    My moan is that I've just deleted one of the best photos I've taken of the family from the sd card and can't get it back! Have tried recovery software to no avail and normally I'd have copied to HDD before doing anything. I could kick myself.

                      Actually I have another moan - why do supermarkets insist on using elastic to truss their chickens?! It flicks juice over the room every time!! :mad:

                        As that is likely to happen I don't cut the elastic. I just unwind it carefully. :blue thumb: If roasting the chicken whole I then use the elastic to hold the legs back together again after cleaning out the innards.

                        My moan is that they call it 'oven ready' when I don't consider what they leave inside as being oven ready. :noidea:
