Neighbours smoking weed 21:41 - Apr 18 with 10640 viewschrismakin

Need some advice people.

What's the best way of dealing with a neighbour who has clearly moved their personal smoking area in their garden closer to our property

Weve been neighbours for over 10 years. Always got on well. Never really mixed but say hi etc and have a brief chat over the fence

Anyway we dont want to ruin that relationship but the smoking of weed has caused issues as we are having ti close our doors and windows as the smell is so strong it's actually making us feel sick. We are also due to welcome our niece ( wife hasnt been able to babysit due to lockdown) during the summer and we are concerned by the smoking of it.

I appreciate it's there own personal garden and what they do is entirely upto them... it's just with summer on it's way we dont want to have to keep closing doors etc each time he goes out in the garden which is basically every couple of hours a day ( hes house husband)

I've always thought that people who look at bud like that are proper losers who need to light(en) up.

No offence meant though, brother!

Or just tell them to stop taking drugs and live a normal life like everyone else, who is half decent.

Horses for courses. I think Wally should leave the drug taking to those of us with brain cells to spare.

if wafting it through your neighbours window is fine, lets have smoking back in pubs.

The mighty Bucket. Did you have lungs? Same kind of thing but you would sellotape a bread bag to the bottom of the coke bottle to provide the suction.

We had them hid up all over the place.

My Mrs spends half her time nosing around the local street social media page just to see what Paul Todd is harping on about - I get a running commentary.

Yes, bonfires do seem an issue.

Having a bonfire?

Just let your immediate neighbours know so they don't have their laundry on the line!

It's not difficult to be respectful, but truth is, most people hardly speak anymore.

You're not even allowed to create parks from parking spaces these days:

That would have made a nice town centre smoking spot too.

Hmm. Don’t agree jeera. They might have a postbox garden. Do you say the same to someone having a barbie ? A bonfire?

My view, let them crack on and close your windows.

If it’s all the time have a word, but otherwise live and let live.


If only 'live and let live' was that straight forward. The OP and the neighbour cant carry on without limiting the others life. The OP by limiting where or when the neighbour can smoke his weed, the neighbour by by limiting the OP's enjoyment of fresh air in his garden.

Same with bonfires. The chap who wants to burn his garden rubbish, can't do so without choking his neighbours with smoke, and they can't ask him not to without putting him to the inconvenience of taking a trip to the dump.

It's why we have politics.

This is a really daft question, but why do people burn garden waste instead of taking it to the tip or composting it?

Often because it is easier I think, some people also like fires. But it is just about the most inconsiderate way of dealing with garden waste.

Because they're selfish scumbags.

Ah, I see. So there's no real reason. Just don't get that idea, might as well get some compost or charcoal out of it if you're doing a fire. Or at least a few hotdogs.

On the flip I know several who have ruined lives, careers, marriages and bank accounts purely down to cocaine. Horrible horrible drug.

Ya neighbours wouldn't smell it though...
