The irony is that I just went the hundred yards or so, twice, as my eight year old was in bed so couldn't go any further from the house.

He was however, hanging out his window cheering tho....

I always felt if it's not dark you can still be noisy.

:lol: We tell the kids that, and that when the ice cream van sings its song it means they've run out of ice cream :proud:

Valve Bounce - Hahaha, Classic! I would loved to hear her reaction.

I think as our population gets bigger, people get more disjointed from eachother with the lack of community and this makes people angrier as more people have to compete for the same space. Plus the world is going to s1ht! Ignore the moaning old wench she probably just took her frustrations out on you because she's had a crap day.

I was a grumpy moaning sod tonight!!!

Youngest has cold, got her in bed after a marathon wrestling snot fueled fight and one of the neighbours decides at 10pm to get his chainsaw out and trim his tree O_O

Politely asked him if he could STOP as it was late and he got a bit snotty about it, so I quoted law 12b subsection 24 at him and he stopped :proud:

(Noooooooo idea what law 12b subsection 24 is but it sounded good :shifty: )

I felt like Victor Meldrew >_<
