    OK, does anyone remember that party in the North East that was in the news as someone advertised it on facebook??

    I have a feeling that it may be re-occurring next door:eek:

    Our neighbours and bezzy mates have gone to London for their anniversary and their 2 teenage sons were supposed to be staying over at friends houses, all arranged..................so why are their droves of kids going into next doors house????

    I have rang, pretending to be concerned as I thought it might be burglars, both kids are their and they inform me that the people who they were supposed to be staying with have let them down at the last minute.............bullshyte!!!!

    what the fook do I do?????

  • If you've got contact details, I'd drop them a text and let them know..... who knows what they'll return to otherwise!

    that's a difficult one Lou, would the boys listne to you if you told them to get rid of the others and you kept an eye on them? Or do you have the tel numbers of any other relatives near by? Other than that, call their parents - ok, the weekend is spoilt, but better that than the house.

    I feel awful because they suspected they would do something like this and warned them both before they left, they will be so dissapointed:o

    I have texted friend.

    call the neighbours Lou.

    If not, call the police if it starts to even sniff as if it's going to kick off.

    Otherwise, let them learn a very hard lesson if their 'mates' trash the place and they have to sort it out before the parents return.

    I'm not sure parties are as 'tame' as back in 1990 when this was considered trashing a place....
