Ok, here's a list of peculiar neighbours of mine

* Creepy old guy who seems good natured enough but is also very weird. He goes everywhere (including on the bus) with a video recorder and sometimes tapes random people.

* Electrician dude who at first seemed fine but then wouldn't let us use his driveway to get out onto the road when our one was blocked off due to roadworks. His reasoning was that he dislikes our landlord because of some dispute over the fencing. I don't see why he should take it out on us.

* Upstairs family who ignore us when we say hello and play bollywood soundtracks, hilarious bollywoodified versions of well known songs (Final Countdown and Child in Time) and generally trashy dance music at 7 am every morning.

* There's a house at the end of our backyard and its bathroom faces our garden - once I was doing some weeding and some guy was in the bathroom coughing and spluttering for 10 whole minutes... it sounded like he was regurgitating his guts. There were points when he almost seemed to have stopped his spluttering symphony, but then not long afterwards he would hawk up again.

* Some guy who screamed at us for reversing into his driveway so that we could get out onto the road.
