Late January, 3c, 50mph gusts, pissing down with rain....
The ‘tard next door is taking a chainsaw to his decking. I believe he is repairing as opposed to demolishing. Guy is semi-retired. Why the f
k?
Appears he also has an incredibly steep garden
I’m not getting your issue. Are you saying he should only use his chain saw on fine sunny days when people are in their gardens and want quiet?The ‘tard next door is taking a chainsaw to his decking. I believe he is repairing as opposed to demolishing. Guy is semi-retired. Why the f

I often do such jobs in those conditions knowing none of the neighbours will then be inconvenienced. I don’t like using noisy kit when neighbours are wanting to use their gardens.
It’s January, in Scotland. Nobody is ever out in their gardens. Trust me, this guy doesn’t care when he makes noise - he’s constantly making noise, it has f-all to do with keeping the neighbours happy.
Who in their right mind fixes their decking with a chainsaw in the pissing rain/sleet in January - especially when they’re semi-retired and could wait for a better day?! It won’t even be nice enough to sit out until April at least. It’s odd.

Has he run out of firewood, and is chopping it up to burn ?Who in their right mind fixes their decking with a chainsaw in the pissing rain/sleet in January - especially when they’re semi-retired and could wait for a better day?!

You may have a point. He does have a wood burning stove and does steal wood for it from nearby forests, despite the fact he can easily afford to buy it like everyone else.Carrot said:

If you like odd neighbour stories then I can recommend searching for jessie31 on YouTube, she lives next door to a 'hillbilly' and appears to be making a few bob out of her when you look at the view counts.
I've just lost 2 hours of my life to this... I kinda love Billy and I'm just sooo jealous of Neb (her boyfriend). Thanks for the heads up, I'm going back in for more later on.

They get up in the morning & then move the car off the drive, parking it outside my house............... then walk to work leaving the drive empty & not 1 other car is parked on the road.
Why? Who knows

I'd be soooo tempted to park on their drive. They get up in the morning & then move the car off the drive, parking it outside my house............... then walk to work leaving the drive empty & not 1 other car is parked on the road.

It did cross my mind.I think its more to annoy the bellends opposite them who try taking over the place by never using the drives and parking on the road. So now when they come home they have to park elsewhere and next door can park on the drive.
I have 4 cars myself yet mine are all on the drive. I have the same space as them both. Think I am to considerate lol
