I understand - all my neighbours are relatively affluent, its only the high number of tenants (some of them students - god knows how they can afford the rents) that cause problems in my estate.

I can remember having two old wrecks in my front garden as a newly married 25 yo. One was a Midget shell in primer yellow on stands! They were a right state but I never thought anything of it. The back garden was a tip too - but we just didn't have the money to sort everything out quickly.
I currently have three wrecks in my garden - the only difference is that they are now hidden from view.
Perhaps I haven't moved on as far as I like to think.

No wonder your neighbours won't speak to you !

There is a pikey (sorry traveller) site on the A27 between Shoreham and Lancing called 'Withy Patch'.
This is a no-go area for anyone local - including the police, TV licence inspectors etc etc.........
They've recently cleared bushes around the site and a new sign caught my eye:
'No parking. Authorised vehicles only'
Now that's what I call ironic.

Makes me glad to live where I do. I've had neighbour trouble myself when I lived in Maidenhead, I find that going not just one better but several times seems to work, fortunately where I live now we all get on, I'm very lucky.
One neighbour is teaching me to play guitar in return for hay and straw for his kid's rabbits. One neighbour is a traffic cop which is useful for finding out locations of mobile traps, his wife is the local doctor, handy for medecines out of surgery hours, my next-door neighbour has every power tool known to man - sometimes I feel like Homer Simpson next to them all, nothing much to offer except the wit and wisdom I posess

Oh, and I hate pikeys too.....
Far too much experience when I was younger with the buggers.....I like to see the best in most groups of people, but I have no time for pikeys at all.
