/|\ F**k me.

OP - hit him with a baseball bat. Square in the mouth! Knock a few teeth out. I guarantee - no more spitting.

Is it REALLY that difficult to understand how the world works?
F**k me!

Occasionally, just occasionally when out you can't help but hawk one up.

Gutter is a perfectly acceptable receptacle. Neighbour's / any private garden you don't own is not.

Have a word if you feel able to do so. If not what about neighbours? Have they had any issues, etc.

Ultimately suck up, front up or move. Your call.

When he spits, collect it, then commit several very unpleasant crimes and smear it about the crime scene,

Then if it still happens. Film it and send it to the Police.

Or say he spat AT you.

I guessed it might be S87 Environmental Act, but the OP's garden is private property, so I believe he'd have to bring a private prosecution nerd

Section 87(1) states - A person is guilty of an offence if he throws down, drops or otherwise deposits any litter in any place to which this section applies and leaves it.

The offence may be committed in any place in the area of a principal litter authority which is open to the air.   The offence may also be committed in certain covered places provided the place is open to the air on at least one side AND the public has access to it, with or without payment.  A further point is that it is immaterial whether the litter is deposited on land or in water.

I like that!The misses does put a lot of effort into the garden,its a corner house and the garden's quite large.Mostly private houses in the street,non council but a few of them being let out to anyone basically.

Do you all have the saliva sucked out your mouth with a little tube,saved into a colostomy type bag,then save it up for the little street urchin on the corner to give your brogues a bit of spit and polish(obviously your Gin soaked phlegm will be better than the urchins gruely phlegm on Italian leather!)
God,how the other have live! ;-),every area can have it's idiots,believe me!

As a general rule, I tend to swallow my saliva. Does that make me unusual??

Front him or move.
Otherwise it will just wind you up even more.

I had a very similar situation in a previous house, 7.15 every morning a guy would walk up my road and hack up/spit out phlegm right outside me gate EVERY morning and always in EXACTLY the same spot, not anywhere else along my 100 yard long street but ALWAYS right outside my gate. Quite bizarre ritualistic behaviour.

I was leaving the house earlier than usual one morning and just happened to be opening the front door just as he went past and did it, I went ape st on him and told him to do it outside his own fking front door in future... never even saw him walk up my street again after that, I'm guessing he must have found an alternative route to the bus stop!

As you seem the non confrontational type then my suggestion would be to go round, maybe with a bottle of wine (or some beer) and try and get on with them. Once you have broken the ice and figured him out then you will have more of an idea on how to 'bring it up' as it were.

If he's a bubble like you think then going in off the cuff will turn bad, so feel your way in and then mention it to him.

Personally I'd be far more concerned with having new neighbours with 7 kids - just wait till they start booting a ball around in the street, screaming at night, thundering up/down stairs, playing loud music, screaming loudly, kicking balls over the fence....that type of thing.

It's best to either move or swallow your pride and try and get on with them as the latter will make it easier to sort out stuff.

I have never felt the need to spit, nor noticed any neighbours doing it.

Seriously, have you met these types? As mentioned by a previous poster they are in every respect a different species.

I can just imagine the door step scenario...

OP - *knock knock Hello there, though we might have a quick chat over a nice bottle of chardonnay

Neighbour - U FUKIN WOT MATE?? WHO YOU FUkIN CALLIN CHARDONAAAY YOU CAAAAAANT!! *SMACK

Go and spit on his garden.
If your mouth goes dry, have a wk instead.
He'll get the message.

It is a tradition here now; nothing useful or positive to contribute, so blame the OP, make it all his own fault.
