as long as i got no people of a certain breed next to me i'm ok..if say a coloured gentelman moved in next door i'de be off in a flash. nice car is a good one westie..someone's car is an ole wreck then that's how they live inside.. you'de be happy to have me as a neighbour i rekon  I spent 8 of my first 9 years living in Walthamstow, London. Had several friends whose parents were of Caribbean, African and Asian origin. Absolutely loved being with them and going to each others houses. Went to the Oval in 1976 with a Jamaican family to watch Eng v W Indies. A day I will never forget for their warmth and ebullience. |

I don't care if someone's skin colour is green with purple stripes, it is the person inside the skin I am more interested in. I lived next door to an Asian family and I was impressed by the moral standards they upheld and the family being at the centre of all they did. I became very good friends with them and the wife was an expert cook who taught cookery at the local college. All she wanted was a whole chicken and a suitable cook pot and 24 hours later I got a pot full of the most delicious curry imaginable, with a big pile of fabulous Parathas to go with it. In return I did odd jobs for them and kept their garden tidy, I sorely miss them to be honest and they are a huge class above the pack of idiots that surround me now, so you can keep white skin as the default ideal neighbours.

For me it’s solely about how much noise, mess or invasion of privacy a neighbour brings, I have no interest in engaging with them socially, so there are no upsides to neighbours for me. That’s why I say the best neighbour is no neighbour, if you’re a social/sociable type then I can see it would be different.

Best neighbours are no neighbours. Definitely no neighbours with kids. If anyone with children moved near me, I would sell straight away. I absolutely hate the feckers. When I lived in the U.K., I wouldn’t buy any house with kids anywhere nearby. I used to get on Google Earth and Street view to look for signs of the wee scumbags. Any location with a garden trampoline or basketball net nearby, or any driveway with a bike and it was an automatic no go for me. Now that's extremely sad! We were all noisy kids once and we grew out of it (well, some of us did).

I hated kids when I was one. Spent lots of time and energy beating the crap out of any and every one that got in my way. Maybe it was growing up in an adult household (2 much older siblings) but I couldn’t put up with kids from an early age. I just found them incredibly dumb, un-coordinated, noisy, attention-seeking and lacking any element of self control. Basically they irritated the Sh#t out of me the same as they do now I’ve met loads of people who are like-minded over the years. I guess that’s why you get things like Thomson Gold Holidays which are supposed to be child free. The thing is, they need to extend the ban on children to the flight and Airport experience too. They are the worst parts because you can’t escape the little shits. And they are often travelling for free whilst ruining everyone else’s flight or holiday. I have to say that the British children are many, many times worse than any other nations offspring. But then so are the parents IMO. |

Maybe it was growing up in an adult household (2 much older siblings) but I couldn’t put up with kids from an early age. Or maybe you were just a psycho. I grew up in a large-ish family (third of four children) in a small house. I got on well with my siblings, younger and older, and with most of my contemporaries at school. Then both my sisters had children quite young, so I was used to babies being around from my late teens. I had to move away from my home area, but my three siblings all live within a couple of miles from where we grew up, and would never want to live anywhere else. |

Now that’s just typical of today’s attitude. It’s not only compulsory to put up with other people’s children: You’re now supposed to like them too! If you don’t. Then there’s something wrong with you,
To me it’s utter BS.
Someone lights up a gigarette and a dozen people are up in arms about passive smoking, pollution, invasion of their rights etc. Yet someone drags a handful of screaming, out of control kids into your space, blasting your lug holes, invading your personal space and generally making a nuisance. You see the uncomfortable looks, movements of people clearly wanting them to piss off or their parents to control them, yet nobody dares speak up. It’s gone way too far.

You need to get off the fence and tell us what you really think. I guess everyone has their pet hates. Some people can’t stand dogs or cats. For me it was always kids. Particularly because of the noise they make. Those helium voices are the worst part. The British kids never shut up and they are always screaming. I don’t see that here from any other nation’s kids to anything like the same degree. |

I don't have any pet hates now I've retired. My pet hate used to be meetings, almost always pointless, that seemed to last for years on end. Oh, and I don't like it when stuff gets moved round in supermarkets so I can't find things. Other than that, I'm one chilled dude. I'm always amused to read people getting their kecks in a twist about whatever it is; politics, sport, the weather, BBC bias, 'kids today', tattoos, television.

Imagine working hard and getting your dream home, only to find some chav lottery winner has moved next door and dragged his entourage with him. Partying until dawn, tearing round on quad bikes, you name it. That must be a real kick in the teeth.

That avatar is your best (worst?) yet! ugly people .com mate It’s a real freaky image cos he has a woman’s hairstyle and a belly that makes him look like he’s pregnant. He also looks like he’s giving the “come on” to the pooor soul taking the pic. All he needs is a fag in the mouth to complete the image. His pic made it to the right website! |
