Well today we got back from a couple of days trip out (had to come back early as MIL taken ill) anyway we pulled on drive and I could see him looking.

Whilst we have been away we have had some work done in the back garden repairs to fence post etc after the high winds of the other week, anyway the guy that did the work came for his money etc and said he would see us next week as he is erecting a 3 foot fence on the front for the neighbour hmmn it is open plan :roll the neighbour obv thinks this is going to annoy us but I just think he is being really childish and petty.

I can't believe folk can be like this but still its his money if it makes him happy great.

Someone has probably already suggested this but if not, could you do something with those rounded mirrors? The ones people put at the end of their drive ways to increase visibility? Not sure what they are called but might work.

I feel for you, i am lucky enough to have a paddock and neighbours are never in as always travelling the world. Cant see what this fence is going to do to help the old get reverse out but ha ho let him worry about that.

Chill and don't worry about small minded people!!!!! enjoy your MH and if you ever want to come back to the dark side come say hello

My next door neighbour complained about everything, including my motorhome parked at the side of my house that he has to go into his back garden to see as it cannot be seen from his windows, when I went for planning permision to turn my house into two seperate dwellings. His university student has been home for Easter in his car. This is parked with two wheels on the pavement facing the wrong way.

Have I complained, no but just wait if he starts anymore nitpicking!

We have a neighbour who moans like hell to her gardener about our Motorhome been on the drive ! Little does she know but I know her gardener well Smile

We have only been in this house just over a year and from the min we got the keys she started on us not about the Motorhome but about my vans first thing she said to us was "How long is that going to be parked there for as it is blocking the light in my hall way" Her hall way is like 15ft plus from our drive so I can not see how it blocks light. Once I parked my van near her drive but enough to let her get out and not causing a obstruction but yet she waited for me to come out and gave me a dressing down for parking near her drive ! This is a public rd so her point is ? What you tend to find is it is either jealousy or just someone with nothing better to moan about. My advice having had 17 houses and a number of pain in the backside neighbours is ignore their childish behaviour. We just ignore our neighbour now and it is the best thing we have ever done it gets to them before it gets to you ! PS: You can by law go to a 4ft fence at the front of your house Laughing

Never really bothered to mention this before but I think now is the time,mainly to declare my solidarity with you. We have a wizzen old crone in our road who my kids have called "The Queen of the Street".
She lives next door to my chum who has just bought his third motorhome and is diagonally opposite to me. She gossips with the neighbours about our vans blocking the road,with vehicles on both sides you can still get a bus through,I know I've done it,she wasn't pleased about that!
She never complains about the contractor from the next road who parks his vehicles at the end of ours,or the people from the offices round the corner who park in the residents parking.
But then I don't complain about her dogs yapping at 5 in the morning or people visiting to use her stud dog (canine rent boy!!) or the bitch (the canine one,not her). Nor have I mentioned that she needs to be registered with our environmental health. However next time I see her ill treating her dogs,which she does on a regular basis, I WILL!
So you see you are not alone and my advice is to ignore it perhaps they are having the early onset of Alzheimers!!
