    How should we approach this..

    Maybe perhaps by just getting a life.

    For the OP

    A nosy neighbor can try the patience of even the saintliest of individuals. Such people seem to have nothing better to do with their time and energy than mind other people's business. If you have a nosy neighbor, you know all too well what this is like.
    A nosy neighbor knows what time you and all of your family members leave the house each day and what time you return. They will regularly scope out the exterior of your house to see if you've added any new fixtures or decorations, mowed your lawn lately, gotten a new paint job or received a pressure wash. It almost seems as though they never leave their own house, for fear that they might miss something that is taking place at yours!people who routinely snoop and gossip actually detract from the quality of the neighborhood, because they cause others to feel uneasy and distrustful. It is, of course, unlikely that you will say or do anything to directly change these people and their behaviors. But changing yours is worth the effort if it restores peace in your life and your family. Your home is the one place where you should be able to relax and unwind - without worrying that you are being spied on!

    When they moved in first there was a steady stream of youths going in and spending about an hour before emerging again

    It only takes a few seconds to buy drugs, it takes about an hour to ride a hooker though!

    There about a month ago and a bit this attractive looking couple and their two kids moved in a couple of doors up. My OH came back from her girl’s night with a few neighbours and this family was discussed. They haven’t worked a day since they moved in and one neighbour heard that they even went on a 2 week holiday to Disneyland USA. Not only that, but they have 2 cars not over 3 years old. We are now fearing that they might be drug dealers and that’s not what we want in our estate. We never had anything like this before.
    When they moved in first there was a steady stream of youths going in and spending about an hour before emerging again. That has stopped and they went for their ”trip” He is always out smiling and saying hellow trying to blend in whilst she goes on expensive shopping trips laden down with bags when she gets home. How should we approach this and could we get the guards to look them up?
    Thanks.
    Have you ever been suspicious about a couple.

    Similar problem here OP.
    Just moved into a house about a month ago and this fella a few doors down is very suspicious. Now we're an attractive couple, neither of us work because of my gamy leg and himself being heir to the Tayto dynasty, so we stay at home mostly except when we went to Disneland USA for two weeks, paid for by giving some local youths maths grinds in the weeks leading up to it (1 hour per session).
    Now this wan a few doors down, keeps spying at us out through his curtains and
    snooping around our two cars.
    He acts very odd indeed, even when I pop out of the house to say "hellow".
    He doesn't work either, I suspect he may be a drug dealer

    I don't know where to post this, so here goes. Every now and then, along comes a competition with a fabulous prize. But does anybody know who the winners are? i.e. aside from Lotto and TV programmes!:confused:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭areyawell


    Maybe they are both school teachers? both college lecturers? The students that are arriving at the house there giving grinds too? What a load of tosh making them accusations! the amount of JEALOUSY is unreal with that first post!

    And i hope your not saying this to the other neighbours and trying to make them feel unconfortable where they live because of this jealousy. You have nothing better to do than making accusations?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,158 ✭✭✭Tayla


    I knew a few people dealing drugs from their family homes back a few years ago, if anything they broke because they were dealing to fund their own habit, never saw a new car or heard of them going on fancy holidays.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,898 ✭✭✭Cork Lass


    Ok, so I rang the OH and told her to relax, there is probably nothing to worry about but she says she will prove me wrong.

    Nice!! Flippin' glad I don't live near you - at least I hope I don't :eek:

    I was about to say the grinds teacher thing too . Grinds teachers have been known to work until 12 midnight during the busy periods.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 182 ✭✭somegirl2009


    mind your own business!!!!

    don't be jealous

    and get on with your own life as it doesn't sound as your neighbour is doing anything to you..................


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 827 ✭✭✭WumBuster


    Maybe they are boardsie moderators! :D

    There could be numerous explanations, even if you are right on your 'hunch' and they are running some illegal business or drugs trade, I still dont think you should get any way involved. Those kind of people are rarely oblivious to the authorities anyway.

    Do they look suspicious?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Caveman1


    I'd rather live next door to the drug dealer than the OP at least the dealer will mind his own business.

    Some people really need to take up a hobby


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,515 ✭✭✭LH Pathe


    As partners all couples are to be treated with suspicion.

    And anyone who feels incomplete without one, is pathetic for only u can make you whole again.

    He went round to introduce himself. Turns out they're into s&m and now he's trussed up like a turkey in their basement with a big feather sticking out of his hole. Which serves him right really.

    I've been very paranoid since Tim Robbins and Joan Cusack moved in next door, she really has an evil smile.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,989 ✭✭✭PictureFrame


    Yea like thats gonna work.
    1: End up him shooting me cos I know his sordid secerts.
    2: End up a coke addict form his deadly deals.


    Sound like you've already formed your narrow-minded, preconceived notion of these people, who you know nothing about. Not only are they crooked drug-dealers (no proof), they're also gangland criminals who enjoy shooting people who knock on their door.

    Your second point actually made me laugh.. :pac:.. Deadly deals :pac:

    Learned a valuable reason in life today; never judge someone. The OH was in the playground this afternoon and was minding her own business when in walked a glamorous lady and her two kid. The OH finally got talking to her and lo and behold its our new neighbour. Turns out and its been mentioned they are teachers. Well she said she is fantastic and invited her to over to her girls tea nights I think its in our house next; she also suggested that he go for a few pints sometime but as it happens he gave up drink few years back (wonder who is wearing the trousers in that house). Anyway its such a relief that the estate is safe again and as Iv said its important never make judgment on someone.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,194 ✭✭✭Corruptedmorals


    Maybe you can have a laugh with them over that time you thought they were drug dealers and posted for advice on a national forum.

    It might have been his own decision to give up drink? And I love how your estate is safe again when it wasn't endangered in the first place.




  • My God, you are SO nosy. I wonder what my neighbours must think of me. I leave the house at different times every day, sometimes have entire weekdays off, have people coming to the house at weekends and in the evenings and I've recently taken two holidays and acquired a nice expensive-looking designer handbag.

    This is because I'm a teacher and have different classes/schedules every day, I sometimes work from home doing translation and proofreading, I give grinds and English lessons to students, been abroad to visit friends and inherited a lovely bag from a family member.

    Never committed a crime more serious than jaywalking but according to you, I must be a drug dealer. Get a life OP!

    I was watching from behind the net curtains in the front bedroom. I ran in to try and save him but the good looking missus was too quick for me. I'm typing this with my elbow, trussed up next to him. I'm dreading the feather...
