Re: Feeling brave.

I do the same to my next door neighbours. Haven't spoken to either of them since March, when he ordered me to get our van moved off our drive else he'd report us to the council for all sorts of things. It is usually at my Daughters, but her next door neighbours were having their roof done so my Daughter had left it on my drive, it was there for about 4 weeks & we had no intention of it being permanent, but he so got me I wanted to say so much to him. He even made reference to my late OH saying he had promised him it would never stay there permanently.That really annoyed & upset me. My drive & I can park any vehicle I like on it. I wanted a row but my daughter stopped me. I haven't spoken to him or his wife since.

Re: Feeling brave.

I've known a woman for many years who had a dispute with her farmer neighbour she owns and lives in a cottage near his farm, after the dispute he started dumping mounds of smelly farm rubbish including cow muck just opposite the front of her house and front door , over the years he has added to it and the mound is clearly visible and smells bad . He can do this as it's his land . She and he detest each other and neither will stand down . It's gone on for years and I've no doubt will continue for years . I've been told she is unable to sell and move as viewers have seen the pile and walk away .

Re: Feeling brave.

I'm glad you are all ok some neighbours can be nasty, one here likes to shout and berate women, he's nice as pie to men. Got me in a corner when I had my late Benny dog and Katie dog with me, I was more worried they'd bite him than about what he was yelling at me about. My husband came down to see what all the noise was about and the sudden change in manner was amazing, "nothing wrong just chatting to your lovely wife gov, how the hell are you aven't seen you for ages."
Blooming creep !

I never spoke to him for over 10 years he got ill last year, very ill so I started speaking again and we've helped best we can but I'm always aware of his real character and make sure either nathan or steven are with me when we go round.

Re: Feeling brave.

I don't consider I am being brave when I stick up for myself, or others, in threatening situations, it is just what I do.

Re: Feeling brave.

Yes well you would wouldn't you?

This man had humiliated & bullied me in front of other neighbours a few weeks ago & I have been seething about it ever since. Confronting him yesterday gave me a bit of my pride back.

I think I was brave anyway. I could have just ignored him or cowered away from him.

Re: Feeling brave.

Well I consider you brave Carol, I would have ignored him been too scared to speak to him again.

Re: Feeling brave.

well done carol--

Re: Feeling brave.

Hi

A well done from me as well Carol.

Don't be the one to avoid him, prats like that consider it a weakness.

Just do what you have done, go about your business and ignore him.
