    Claire, I think I would wrap a single tile up with a bow (only if you have a spare) and leave it on his doorstep, just because it would make me laugh to do it. :rotfl:

    not sure whether to tell Dh what has happened because he'll go and throttle him, Jo said i should, mind you if paul had gone out there he wouldn't have spoken to Paul like that

    I spent years worrying about what my 2 ate, then years being happy that they'd eat anything at all.....now they eat me out of house and home. :D

    I'm having one of those days where I'm really having to bite my tongue, you know when you just want to say the thing you really mean rather than the thing that's socially acceptable? I shall ignore the phone for the rest of the evening just incase the urge overwhelms me. :cool:

    Pooky you can come and vent at my neighbour if you want lol.

    I think i might be very neighbourly and give him a tile if i have any spare, mind you though we never moan when he decides he can't sleep and starts banging at 6.30 on a sunday morning, or when he decides to mend the side of his shed and stands in our garden to do it. (i'm very neighbourly and keeps the dog in, dog hates him cause years ago he kicked the living daylights out of him)

    don't get me wrong i can understand he's upset, i would be too, but the way he went about it was wrong, he shouldn't have talked to me like i was muck on his shoe, and he shouldn't have called me names either, i did offer to get the property cleaned, should i have done more?

    I hate falling out with people, i don't like the bad feeling it causes
