Dear Lyn,

How are your neighbours? I am reporting my neighbours to the council. I mentioned this to three other neighbours who are thinking of doing the same thing but when I spoke to one of the neighbours he said that he had also contacted the landlords who say that they are trying to get them out! The landlords are also the estate agents so how can they be struggling to get them out? I think they are obliged to find other properties for them but as they don't want them in any of their properties they are staying put!

Sorry to hear you are still having trouble Natrah. If it's noise again try to record it, and make a note of times and duration of noise. I would report it to the council, because they may be able to do something. If you look at your council website they may give advice about noise nuisance, or just Google it generally and see what action is recommended.

My neighbours have gone out tonight and left 2 dogs howling and barking, for the last couple of hours. Their own dog is usually quiet when left, but the other dog belongs to a daughter and I think her own neighbours have complained about the noise, so now whenever she goes out she brings it here to annoy her parents neighbours instead. It is obviously upsetting the resident pooch causing it to howl. 😠

Good afternoon/evening all.
It's quite a pleasant, but cold weekend weatherwise.
BST ends this weekend in the UK so our clocks go back an hour tonight, which means it will be dark by 5.30 pm tomorrow. I don't really mind that because the neighbours spend less time outside.
I hope you're all having a good weekend. TTFN

It's not my dad MS Cathie, he's Kerry's Dad.

After sleeping all nite for 2 nights straight, I'm up at 2am this morning.

MS Cathie is going to be a little hottie in her Spanx!

Lol
I don't know about being a hottie but I know I'll be hot 🔥 🥵. As long as it glues me together when I need it I'll deal with it though 😜

Sorry to hear of your neighbor troubles N, I hope that you can resolve them peacefully....but remember, there's always "plan b". Lol

TD ....coffee makes friends! I'm having my 2am cup now and it's really good. House is empty, " How it's Made" on the TV. Life is good. Kerry and her dad left at 7am. One thing about someone staying with you if you tend to wake at night, it sucks.

I did run the shed to shed wiring yesterday. I was smart to thread the wire through the fittings and piping before I glued the PVC pipe together between the sheds. I never would have been able to pull it through. I used 1" sched #40 pipe I had. Didn't connect anything yet but got the receptacles and light switch boxes installed.

Ok, this is important;
I promised Kerry that I would buy insurance for myself for 6 months without complaining. That period is coming to an end and I had other priorities so I'm just now getting into this.
Still trying to wrap my head around this whole medical insurance mess for old folks. It appears that SS will deduct 348($174x2 because I worked hard) each month as a "license" to buy Part B insurance from a company for another 450 per month? REALLY?? Do I have this right? And folks go along with this?
I don't want to make decisions based off incorrect information but " me nombre es Jose" seems to be a less expensive alternative.
Yes you are right. I can't believe Medicare is such a confusing mess. And to think people are trying to get Medicare for everyone. If I was younger and had a choice I would be saying cram it. I have Halloween horror stories dealing with Medicare.

There is something very wrong that at 66 and Kerry at 58 ARE JUST LEARNING that you get double tapped with insurance cost at 65. You pay for your own insurance AND you pay medicare for insurance for someone else since you aren't actually getting insurance from Medicare, it's just a tax.

Why don't we know??? How come my financial guys don't even know?? They think that you actually only pay the Medicare fee and they aren't aware that we pay an additional penalty if we made a decent living. Hmmm.

The math tells me to drop it like a bad project. In NO world does this make financial sense. They can charge me an extra 10% per year that I don't carry insurance. It still makes more financial sense to bank 9600 per year.

On another note...look at what Nature returned to me, again!

Good morning everyone!

Our neighbours are a nuisance to us when they are in and a nuisance to the other neighbours in the adjacent street when they are standing outside at night drinking (during the summer). They are a nuisance to everyone when they are in/out every few minutes in the evening and late at night.

Good afternoon /evening all. It's been another nice day but colder, than yesterday. The rain is back again for tonight and tomorrow though - hopefully just showers.
I've just been busy at home today but I don't seem to have achieved much. I keep getting sidetracked so I must try to finish what I've started tomorrow. Meanwhile I'm going to have dinner. So I hope you're all having a good Sunday and see you later.
