What is wrong with people? I have no optimism for our society, the world is going down the toilet and it is sad to see it right in our own community.
Sorry to hear of this Demitri. I'm sure there are bylaws "protecting" you, but whether or not any enforcement helps I've no idea.
May luck shine on you and a "For Sale" sign on their lawn appear soon.

I have some suggestions:

1. Gather all their trash that ends in your backyard, put it in a box and place it on their porch.

2. Everything of value (not trash) that ends in your backyard (balls, packs, etc.), confiscate it, do not give it back.

3. Everytime they are outside and get out in your porch with a videocamera pretending you're filming them. If they ask, tell them you're collecting video evidence to use in court when you decide to sue them.

Very evil ... and funny. I like it!

I had neighbour kids write "F@*k you" in crushed berries on my car window this weekend... I am looking forward to moving into Hawthorne Village!

These are bordering on acts of vandalism. Keep it documented and photographed and maybe contact a constable and see what they say.

Hi H&H,
Readling through your story. It does seem very interesting to watch.
Can we all come over to watch the movie
" MR. AND MRS. SLOB-N-OB"

Hey H&H,

I'm sorry about your neighbor problem...they sound like pretty disgusting people to me. After all isn't your backyard an extension of your home? I'd hate to see the inside of the home! Scary! Instead of chilling in the jacuzzi maybe some lawn/backyard clean up could have been a little more appropriate. Wow.....not good...and that (science experiment) I mean wine glass is STILL out there????....oh man....that is just dirty!

I don't blame you for wanting to move away, although I'm sure some of your neighbors will miss you dearly. Good neighbors are hard to find! Hey the future neighbors may have a clean backyard but what if they are crappy people.... A thought to ponder.....

Anyways, I think it's a good idea to write "the letter" maybe they'll get the message or even better..... they move! Sounds like there are a few issues that you can bring up in the letter or with the town. Or just get together with your neighbors and make some noise!!!!!! ha ha - Party at H&H's! wahooo!

As for their trash... I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole! my goodness, and why do their dirty work....if they have so much money why don't they hire some help!

Ya know... this might be an off-the-wall suggestion, but I'll say it anyway:

Once you've decided you have absolutley had enough, why not have a bunch of people just come to your yard and stare at them while they're in the jacuzzi? They'd clearly be annoyed and ask why everyone is staring, that's when you tell them, "They didn't believe me that your yard was such a disgusting mess that they had to see it themselves."
Your guests are on your property so there isn't a lot they can do.

Things may turn ugly following that, but if you're debating moving because of them, it may have already reached that point.

Like I said, this may be a very wacky idea, one I likely wouldn't have the guts to pull myself, but I'd hate for our community to lose a valuable member like yourself.

LOL!!!!

I've been following this thread quietly til this point, but Steve, you crack me up!!!

Hey I think we should all get together and form a "stare down" club!? We'll all stand together in H&H's backyard and stare at Mr. and Mrs. Slob-n-nobs! OMG could you just imagine???!! We'll ewwwww and ahhhh about the science project they have going on their patio table...and their lovely yellow dried out dead plants that desperately scream for a drink....

How about it H&H???! That's got to do something...if anything a fun night!

Teamwork! Let's keep the good neighbors and get rid of the crappy ones!

How about a live webcam feed right here

So how have these slobs been lately?

My gripe about my street is that the neighbours and other houses across the street don't even say hi nor wave to me and my next-door neighbours to say nothing of the lack of eye contact. It sucks, but ah well. When they get stuck in the snow during winter, It'll be my turn not to make eye contact.
