    I would agree that this does sound like a health issue, is it possible for you to speak to the husband? I guess your experience with your ex makes this more stressful for you.
    we have love enough to light the streets.
  • Thanks again for your replies. The husband is quite peculiar too and I don't believe I'd get anywhere by talking to him. Speaking with their neighbours on the other side, it appears that she has caused a lot of trouble for people over the years because of her attitude. In a way, I feel quite sorry for her as she doesn't seem to have any imagination or life of her own (nor does she have any friends) and she must be a very insecure person if she feels the need to copy other people.

    The freakiest thing yet was I saw her last night out in her garden (from my bedroom window) wearing pale blue crop trousers and a pink hooded zip up sweat top - guess what I was wearing yesterday? It's a horrible feeling knowing that someone is watching me so closely. Perhaps if I hadn't been stalked by my ex then I wouldn't be quite so sensitive but it's truly freaking me out right now.

    I've been out today and bought a dummy CCTV camera which looks remarkably like the real thing as it has a real camera carcass inside the unit and a huge length of cable! I will have this installed over the weekend and put up a big sign on my back gate (and on my inside fence so that she can see it) warning that the camera is in operation 24/7. Hopefully such a visible deterrent will put her on her guard.

    Keep your eyes peeled for the next instalment ..............
