They let their yappy little old blind dog out at 6:30am every day and let it wander round the garden barking at everything - this goes on for a few hours until they decide it's time for her to come in. None of us like it but don't have the balls to speak to them about it!
Weird Things Your Neighbours Do

Why have I seen this video before
They've got two rottweilers that are bigger than the kids.
I can only apologise. I'm not your neighbour, but I'm sure my neighbours think the same thing. Fortunately, we've all got dogs and our houses are quite well spaced out. But my wife does insist on waking up at 6:30 to let the dogs out. And in a dogs mind, having a morning wee and poo 'has' to involve saying hello to the world.
Do you leave the dog out for hours barking at the wind? If so, I curse the day you were born.

FTFY
No, they've got a dog flap and come back in pretty quickly.
Builds, builds and builds. When we first moved in I had to go and have a word as he was doing so into the late hours and keeping the kids awake. Apologized profusely to me and even brought the kids some goodies as an apology which was lovely, but that was 2 years ago and he's still ALWAYS throwing something new up. He spent a good 6 months last year building his own extension into the back garden. Never any help, just him and his tool box. Now he's building the foundations for some fortress of a shed.
It's come in handy recently as I'm renovating our garden and pretty much all the wood I've used for raised beds and borders has come from him entirely free of charge. Saved me a small fortune!
They're a really lovely family. Romanian/Ukrainian so he's been telling me a few horror stories about getting some of his distant family out of north eastern Ukraine of late. Brought it home to me in a way I hadn't expected.
Always made a point of befriending neighbors and/or navigating 'difficult' situations with them calmly. Making an enemy of the people who live next to you can be hell.

We’ve been lucky that two young families have moved in either side and are lovely people.
Occasionally (once a year or so) they’ll have family down and will let their kids play in the back garden at 8am on a Saturday which comes with lots of shouting and shrieking but it’s never bothered me all that much.
When we first moved in the guy who bought the house next door came round shouting that I’d stolen some of his land… until I pointed out that I owned up to the watercourse and he owned everything beyond it. He still maintained I’d stolen the land and threatened to take me to court, so I pointed him at a set of deeds and wished him good luck. Never heard from him again!

Mine has moved out of his flat and made camp under the stairs. We both have flats in the basement of an old house.
There are mattresses and blankets used to build a make shift camp and keep out the light. It has a rather musty smell as he used to be a very heavy smoker. His walls are black when they started out cream. The landlords are ripping out his kitchen and bathroom and living area and revamping it. Hence why he has moved into the hall way. They did my kitchen a few weeks back and did an half arsed job.

Our neighbours are fine, no problems with them at all or strange things happening.
My parents had a story of when they moved in - they punching for the area (still nothing to write home about in terms of snobbiness/poshness). The neighbor, a plumber, came around to reiterate the "kind of folk" that lived on the street - and to remind him to never, ever look at his wife - who loved to sun bathe topless.Pictures or this doesn't happen
She had about an A cup and my dad was a self-proclaimed ass man so it was a bit heavy for a first intro

. No such luck in my neighborhood. It's all pretty boring and uneventful here.

I live on a street of terraced houses, one neighbour has an old LWB van outside their house with a punctured tyre, apart from it not being there for a few days for an MOT it hasn't moved in the last few years. It makes me wonder if they want more privacy or just can't let go of it?

One of my neighbours does everything round the wrong way, for example he got some new windows, he then decided to build this small brick building that covers half the window he just had fitted.
Greenery that engulfed a house owned by 'recluse' is finally cut back
A Ramsgate home that was overcome by greenery has been partially cleared - revealing a treasure trove of vehicles including a van, car and even a boat in the front garden.
Think yourself lucky - make sure you check the middle picture as the top one is after a load of work was done
