Better yet, don't buy a house with neighbors period!

I *might* be able to hit my neighbors house by throwing a baseball. They are far enough away, and good enough neighbors we don't have any issues. Never do I want to live in a city neighborhood, with all the issues I hear about.

The daughter of one of our neighbours had a habit of turning onto our drive to turn around, shining her headlights into our baby son's room as she did so. After several polite requests this continued. It stopped after the day my neighbour saw me carry into the house a fibreglass replica of a missile. I was going to drop it off for a friend who had sold it on eBay.

My thoughts exactly. Gel-coat grindings will just blow away - steel grindings on the other hand will cover their car with rusty spots in no time.

Some of you are wicked....I'm hoping I'm not the irresponsible one....

I try hard to be a considerate neighbour.....like not flushing outboard at midnight etc.....:-).

I'll admit I did crank then all up Sunday afternoon though for a few minutes..just to emphasise that they're there.....

It's not the first time.....first time I let it go..even though the tarp had hole burnt in it...

Do I let it go again, what's best approach to neighbour? Am I right or wrong to be angry?
Tell him your hypocrisy goes only so far,then if sed neighbour is persistant ,hit him with extreme ferocity and speed so he is under the impression he is surrounded,then if he is conscious tell him last chance Looey

If I were you I'd not want to start those kind of antics. I'd imagine you waking up one morning with a nasty long split in your tubes if you did. The last thing you want to do with a potentially difficult situation is anger people.

If I were them I'd already be pretty peed at having to wake up each morning to 2 large ribs on a small shared drive, let alone dealing with when the refurb work starts.... That's what the Boatyard is for www.BoatsandOutboards4Sale.co.uk
