Neighbours do we really need them

So living in a link house your neighbours are only a fence away. For me personally I'd prefer them to be two miles away. Maybe it's just me being cranky I really don't bother much about my neighbours and what they do, I'm not the nosey bitch who lives next door. I am not a bosom buddy to my neighbours some I'm not on speaking terms.

The neighbour to my left is ok. A young family with three little boys. Husband and wife work so they have a maid. The boys are actually good boys and are polite, but regular as clock work they'll be out in the front of the house either playing badminton or kick ball at five o'clock in the evening. That doesn't bother me, what bothers me is the ball or shuttle cock ends up in my yard like every five minutes and then they stand outside and holler at me to get the damn ball or shuttle cock. I have told them to come in and get it themselves but as soon as they hop the fence my dogs start barking like hell. My one dog does not like them and I don't know why and they are afraid of the dog. When they are playing outside I keep my dogs in the house as I know the boys are afraid of them and I really want to put my foot down the dogs throat when she keeps barking.

Then there is the neighbour on my right. An old couple who's kids are grown up. Three are living in the States and the eldest son is still at home. My Great Dane can't stand the old bitch and neither can I. The problem with her is that my Dane charges her every time he sees her pop her head over the fence. The fence is high enough that the dog can't jump over it is also high enough so I don't have to see her. Many times I have been out in the back hanging clothes only to look up to this face with wild hair staring cock at me. Goddamn she scares me no wonder she scares the dog. Knowing her when she is watering her trees she probably sprays my dog. One day when I was in the kitchen the dog was barking I looked out into the back and saw her with a big stick banging the top of the fence. Now this is my back yard which is all fenced in and I think that I should be able to let my dog run free. If I walk her some neighbours complain so I have given up walking her.

Another thing I don't understand. The son got married last year and I never see his wife. He bought a house a few doors down from his parents and renovated it. It's a beautiful home and yet he still goes home to mommy's house every night and I have not seen his wife since they got married. Oh sure shortly after the wedding she was their for like a week but after that never saw her again. Most probably can't stand the mother in law. I mean after all three of her kids studied in the States and never came back. A lot of mornings I can hear her and her eldest son arguing. That's gotta give you an idea about what kinda woman she is.

If I had the money I would build my fence higher so she can't stand at the fence staring into my backyard. Talk about nosey. She better leave my dog alone or I'll cut down her damn pine tree that drops needles all over my back yard. Yep neighbours should be at least two miles away.
