Us - detached house. Them - Next door rented.

Now before someone screams "Racist!" this does actually reflect their upbringing. So, new Polish neighbours and to some it is acceptable for them to throw their rubbish next door, next door throws their rubbish next door etc etc etc.

Wife has had words with their elderly father who comes out the front of his house, has a fag and then flicks the butts onto our front garden. Well last night, she sees him spark up and so watches what he does, he actually finishes his fag, walks to our garden, hangs over the fence and deliberately places the butt into the wet soil :(

Wife goes bananas as she looks after the garden and thinks he is an ignorant git - i hear her baging on the door then, "I've asked you to stop, now i'm telling you" - looool, very chavvy, but got her point across i think.

I went out when i heard the drama and had a chat with him and asked him to stop and explained why - i am hoping that's the end of it, but did we handle it correctly?

Will we find our cars keyed? House burgled? Unpleasant neighbours now? What would you have done? (letterbox, boxing stances aside).

I am also looking to buy this for them:

Dress up as Stalin, invade their house occupying for it the next 50 years nearly starving them to death in the process.
 
yup give them the ashtray,, see if niceness can work even after he was being a ****.
who knows maybe they will behave
 
Mrs wants to report them to the council, but, i am hesitant - aside from the cig issue, the next ones that move in may be much worse; better the devil you know?

I have bought the cig bucket as advised above and as much as i'd like to dress up and invade their house etc - one step at a time eh?
 
Get some evidence of what is being done and then go to the appropriate authorities. The ashtray will help here and may solve this issue.

Having a war of words or getting physical won't help your cause much.
 
Look into ways of disposing of bodies. Watch csi etc. As they are foreign the case will not be bothered with when they go missing. Just make sure you burn everything you wore while dispatching them. Works for me.
 
Park a white van outside. Put up some England flags. Shave your head and get some tatoos.

Serious answer... bang on their door and tell them to quite it or you will dump your bin in their garden.
 
The only issue I've had with neighbours and gardens was when i was in my first house and it ended up with my hands around said neighbours neck and lifting the little **** up against his garage wall. Most un me as I am not a tough nut, but I just lost it and went a killin. This was predicated by me throwing an entire fence panel back into his garden (his kids broke it climbing it to get their balls our my garden) and I seem to remember telling him he might need to try and find his own balls if it carried on whilst my wife shouted "hit him".

See, I too was once a chav living on an estate. Ahhh, happy days :)

Won't that count as "having a dispute with neighbours" when you wanna sell the house?

Probably. But sometimes you can't let people walk all over you.

Edit: My judgement is probably clouded right now as I've just had an argument with my wife. So not in the best of moods :)
 
Get some CCTV put up, watching your car.

I'v had a rough time with neighbours slamming doors, parking IN my drive, emptying vacuum bags from their top window onto the street, smoking weed in the garden etc

I've given up and am moving soon anyway. I kind of ask for it living in London, it's my own fault.
 
The polish lads who moved into a flat next to me in Glasgow years ago were easily the best neighbours I've ever had, they took no prisoners when it came to dealing with the local thugs and the elderly woman opposite me absolutely adored them as they'd help me out in the communal garden etc.

I agree with the OP though this is nothing to do with them, it's about their attitude, sadly regardless of where people are from there's always a percentage of selfish horrible people.
