New neighbours from Hell!

Re: New neighbours from Hell!

The other thing to consider, P1, if you or a neighbour have one, is setting up a video camera to record unsociable behaviour. It would need to be VERY discreet so that they can't see it. It would provide evidence if they ever commit either unsociable behaviour or a crime!

I do feel for you, and I'm so sorry to hear about your cat....

annnnnnnnd highly illegal you can not point ANY CCTV or recording devices at your neighbours yard or house it infringes on their privacy

you can hwever call the noise complaints line at your council.

Re: New neighbours from Hell!

I would also contact your Council and report every incident the council will have to take action this could lead to an abatement notice and after so many the council can take legal action if they do not comply.

Have you had a chat with other neighbours and planned a course of action you can take jointly, for instance if all neighbours complain to council that would make your case stronger.

Thanks Pompey.... all the neighbours want to do something but nothing's been organised (as yet).

I need to get some more info. on them if possible. I'm pretty sure none of them work..... yet they have all these vehicles on the drive. That in itself is not a crime but it does make you wonder how such feral people are affording them all.

Yesterday, my daughter and I were clearing the garage out and a van pulled up with 2 young blokes inside. They parked up on the driveway of the house and just sat in there, chewing gum and watching us. I'm not intimidated by them in the slightest but did wonder what they were up to. Waiting for someone to come back presumably.... they've been there before and are friends/contacts/drug pushers (lol) with the people renting the place..... but it's made us all double wary about locking up, etc. in case they're opportunist thieves as well.... or is my mind just doing over time here?

Bloody glad they're not next door to me.... that's for sure!

If you think they are dealing drugs you could report them anonymously to crimestoppers ---> Fight crime - Support the charity Crimestoppers - Most Wanted criminals - Call anonymously - Fraud | Crimestoppers UK

Already done it FP..... although I haven't mentioned drugs, as there is no proof for now. The dangerous driving though is a different matter!! All of the neighbours are outraged by it.

This used to be such a calm and peaceful neighbourhood.... but the feral underclass are spreading out now. Jeez.... I spend the best part of my working day dealing with the kids that these kind of people keep popping out to stay on Benefits. No apology for offending anyone.... it's how it is.

Re: New neighbours from Hell!

Hi Priority One,
How very sad about the cat, the advice I would give would not be acceptable in this politically correct society so really sorry for you.

I'm not very pc Helmsman.... so have had similar thoughts.

A trip to the local police station will be a start though; reporting him for dangerous driving. I got the number plate this morning. I doubt all those vehicles on the drive are legit anyway; quad bikes need to be taxed and insured like everything else...

Still gutted about my cat. I rescued her 3 years ago. She was pregnant at the time I rescued her and spent most of her time indoors, even after 3 years....

The bloke's a fecking maniac!

Re: New neighbours from Hell!

Hi folks,

Some very skanky new neighbours have moved into the house 2 doors down from me and are starting to upset everyone. Although I have a few ideas re. how to approach the problem, I'm certainly no expert and could do with some impartial advice please.

There are loads of people living in this bungalow (3 beds.). It was bought by a woman who rents it out and this lot have come from a very rough part of the area. There are 4 cars parked up outside the house, a quad bike and a van and some(?) all of these people are at home all day. There are also 2 children living there.

So far, this must be sounding quite snobby... and I normally live and let live.... but the crunch for me came last week when one of my cats was killed around the corner to me. I live in a very quiet cul-de-sac and have lived here for nearly 17 years... but it's not peaceful any more. One of the "residents" of this house wheel spins off the driveway eevry day and races up the cul-de-sac like he hasn't had a shag in years!!..... and around the corner like a raving nutter!!!

Another neighbour knocked this morning and told me me that my cat was killed by this person last week. The brakes were heard being slammed down on the Saturday evening before Easter Sunday and one of the other neighbours came out wondering what the Hell was going on. My cat was found dead in the road. I didn't find out until Easter Sunday as I was out.... and I went to collect her Sunday morning. We then buried her in the garden....

I realise that accidents can happen and animals do sometimes dart into the road but this nutter is dangerous. He is still wheel-spinning off the drive and has learned nothing from this. I watched him whizz up and around the cul-de-sac yesterday afternoon and thought then that he probably killed my cat.

I need to report him for dangerous driving and I also have reasons to believe they are drug dealing in there as well.

Any advice gratefully received.
