I'll keep this to the point, and without bias.

What would you do about this, and how would you feel?
  • Neighbour walks out of house, repeatedly staring into our living room if the blinds are tilted the wrong way so they can see in. This requires a 180 degree turn of the neck, but is consistent.
  • Neighbour built fence (before we bought house) that tails down from 6feet near the house, to almost 4 1/2 feet at the end of the garden, allowing extra peerage. Specifically in summer, when you/wife are lazing around the garden
  • Neighbour has webcam in bedroom window, facing street where....
  • Neighbour always ensures that one of their (2) cars is always occupying the space in front of the house.
  • If car space is occupied by a.n.other car, as soon as it moves, neighbour occupies space. (within ~3 minutes). Sometimes the car isn't even started, it just gets rolled 7 metres forward with the door open

    (Neighbour has now had quotes to drop kerb to claim right of access)
  • Neighbour appears at front/rear of house to make useless conversation when me or the wife are leaving or coming in
I think thats it, but quite frankly, after 3 and a half years, we're thinking of moving.

It sounds quite sad, I know, but its incredibly depressing at times. We get on, the neighbour is very friendly, but by GOD is it annoying. I've quite spitefully taken my vengeance this weekend by leaving my car in his spot and riding or borrowing Mrs Oogers car. I feel a little better. Logistics dictate that this "bagsy" behaviour can continue until Tuesday (4 nights, a personal best so far)

Sensible answers only please. So far our ideas for the "peeping" are:

Conifers, fast growing ones. 60cm apart.

OK, just one idea then. Help me.

hiya

i wud not move cos then they won!!!!!! cant have that? and then stare back?? wen they come out of house watch etc? now some may say that u r lowering yr self to their level then and it wil only then cause a war? but they wil feel intimidated then mayb? and realise how uncofortable they r making u or on the other hand u cld just say some thing in conversation like i notices u looking in etc ???

neighbours can make yr life hell, we got on at the mo and we only been here 8 weeks and she complaining about me bike already and its not moved lol
