Neighbour's trampolines

[Deleted member 77746]

Ok, but the point was maybe the neighbour's trampoline could "blow away".

Not if it's pegged down properly or with the correct anchors in place.

Unless there was a tornado/hurricane ofc.

What you on about jeff?

Just you do you and they have an issue with it they'll soon stop looking over into your house.

Reminds me of Friends.

I swear sometimes OcUK has become mumsnet.

Sorry, no, not enough poor grammar and TLAs peppering every post, according to SO, my DW. DNO agrees and DNT would do to, but she's only TYO and can't yet read.
AIBU, AITAH?

As an offshoot of the delightful thread about noisy children in gardens, does anyone else find trampolines in neighbour's gardens intrusive? Two of our three fence-sharing neighbours have children and the trampolines give them a direct line of sight into our garden and our kitchen. I don't care about the garden so much, but if I want to walk around naked in my kitchen I should be able to.

It's not even potential nudity, though, really. I really feel the neighbours should be putting up trellis or something so that their kids can't just watch you walking around your house.

The very momentary and hard gained time that they are high enough airborne to wallow in the dirtychinchilla kitchen shenanigans seems like oppressively hard work when they could just bash a hole in the fence panel and have the full and unlimited chinchilla experience...

Solution to OP's problem. It just requires a dark night, a bit of stealth and something to cut with.

[something daft already!!]

I don't like trampolines, they make me jump.

Easy solution don't go around naked in your kitchen.

Nope, that’s not the OP’s burden.
If he wants to do that in his own home that’s his right

Then close the curtains and blinds. Binoculars next, never mind a trampoline.

Not that the neighbour will have much to see. Probably needs a microscope.

Why should said naked person have to close their curtains?

If a person wants to be naked in their own home then that's their business. If someone sees them and is offended then that's their problem... Be offended but the naked person is not doing anything wrong (unless actively posing at a window in order to be seen for example).... The offended person should stop looking in the naked person's windows and they won't see.

Your last sentence just shows your immature mindset TBH.

 

[adidan]

I'd just carry on doing what I'm doing.

If people are looking you should just print an onlyfans link on the windows and at least make some money out if it.

Nothing's free nowadays.

Then why can't a man on a trampoline look in neighbours window while they walk around naked?

If it's a female bet op wouldn't be bothered.

Either close curtains or put clothes on.
Stand at window, do the windmill.

At what point did I say they couldn't

We have 4 in earshot neighbours. Only one of them has children. Unfortunately they also have a trampoline. It gets annoying in summer holidays.

To live in a child free village would be amazing!

Trampolines are the garden equivalent of grey walls, corner sofas and silver curtains. That and fake grass.

*Lights touchpaper, runs*

Live in a terrace with old dear on one side that never leaves the house, and we have a completely shared garden since I took the fence down. Other side is a single woman with adult kid who we only occasionally hear playing the piano. End of the garden is allotments, the peace is amazing. Most noise we have is the birbs, dawn chorus is pretty loud.
