    I'm not thinking practically at all there. Get a couple of trampolines for either side of the garden. Angle them towards the fences. Any balls come flying over get bounced straight back again. :D

    I wouldn't feel comfortable doing that, I don't know them at all & what I do know of them they seem funny.

    Some people have just been brought up to keep themselves to themselves, while other people are simply just shy and have difficulty looking people especially strangers in the eye.

    I've had lots of discussions with friends and family about unfriendly neighbours. Ultimately it's the neighbour who loses out as they are not invited around to bbqs/parties, given lifts home from the local station 2 miles away, helped with heavy loads, have parcels taken in from them etc.

    Just stop throwing the balls back so frequently. Oh and you can also be unavailable if they call round. The kids will soon learn not to do it.
    I'm not cynical I'm realistic :p
