Annoying Neighbours

[sigma]

I don't speak Hindi (beyond asking how are you).

How do you know they don't speak English? Is your name Chris also?

 

[Diddums]

They just like to panda to your style of weirdness.

 

[SpellowHouse]

My neighbours are amazingly good.

That's when good neighbours become good... Friends.

I tried to hire them. How else would I know?

I've no idea, surely someone they know must speak English? If not, you need to find better Indians! Endians.

I wanted the rubbish burning and a drive for 9 cars though so Endians would have been no good!

Are you sure they weren't just trying to avoid talking to you?

@HC1 Have you chinned them yet?

Anything that impacts on my property is a no go, unless you ask for permission.

Want to use my drive whilst you're doing some work? No problem but ask. Going to be having a party until 3am with really loud music? Common courtesy is to let someone know. I do this, have done this and will continue to do this.

One neighbour was having some work done and they literally destroyed my bushes out front, I politely let them know I'd noticed it and they didn't give a toss, thus I now consider them to be tossers.

Haha I had NO gypsum boards in my house!
It's not been touched in absolute decades and it was a mix of lath plaster, some sort of thick hard plaster on the walls (definitely not boards) and bare bricks.

Proper build, by proper builders, not some Wimpey job

How do you mean? I asked them if they could quickly eye up a job and quote, and they said "no hablo ingles". If that isn't Hindi for I don't speak English that what is it? Some kind of fobbing off?

Is that how they built them back in the day? Thicc plaster?

 

[Thekwango]

They are the same families who order takeaways at least 4 times a week, eat a slice or two of pizza and toss the rest.

you've already been told to stop rooting through other peoples garbage.......that's just ******* weird!!

A modest Victorian or Edwardian house probably has more skill and craftsmanship in the staircase and chimneys than a whole Wimpey estate of kit assemblers could show.

Do you remember those times well?

I don't need to have witnessed the age in person, the legacy of the Edwardians and Victorians is all around for the open minded to see and appreciate, from university bursaries to architecture, wonderful civic works of (fortunately...) amazing longevity, and a class system that, currently condemned, still rules
