Won't you have to let them know that you're having problems with your neighbours?

If there is an official "dispute" - by which I guess we mean there has been angry letters to and fro or something similar???

Though - in fairness - it's best to check out anyone else's definition of a "home" - ie whether a "home" obviously includes "peace and quiet" on the one hand or anyone else is half-deaf (so wouldnt hear any noise anyway) or is noisy themselves (so could hardly complain about someone else being).

One thing I have realised as I get older is that its sometimes a lot easier to go round a problem - rather than head straight at it...:D

If their house is a semi too, have you had a quiet chat with their adjoining neighbours? Presumably they will suffer from the racket even more than you do, and might feel too intimidated to mention it, but if you band together perhaps they might take more notice.

and a neighbourhood watch chap who would walk about naked proclaiming he was a naturist !!!!!!,

I'm not sure if that's the swear filter cutting in, and if so what it's hiding, but if he was wandering round naked then he probably WAS a naturist.

Which, in the privacy of his own garden, shouldn't be a problem.

please dont apoligise,, maybe I need to speak to them but im always thinking what if they dont care? they dont seem to care now..

If they don't respond to reasonable requests about unreasonable noise or other behaviour, you contact the landlord.

Also if he's effectively letting via the council you can contact the council as well.

However, my view is good on him for being WILLING to take tenants on benefits, so many won't consider this, and since there isn't enough social housing around where is everyone supposed to live if they can't get a mortgage?

Thanks if you saw the garden layouts the very least I would do for fencing is 6ft high wooden fence which I cant afford.

The current fence is not in good condition they climb over to get the balls but I dont mind that if I put a trellis it would get ruined

Grow a pyracanthus (sp?) bush - it's prickly and known for being a good burglar deterrant.... little s0ds shouldn't be climbing over for the ball, they're supposed to knock and ask for it, or wait until you throw it back over (maybe 1-3 days later).

the reason he took on tenants on benefits is its guaranteed rent paid as its not the tenants paying but the who ever housed them, thats what he told me himself when he was packing up to go
