All over

and obviously each to their own but what is this obsession with people kitting out their 4x4 garden as if it was a Magaluf all inclusive. Sticking a swimming pool that you might use a few days a year and takes up more than half of your garden does seem to me a little OTT. It's meant to be light hearted thread on a Sunday morning so what amusing or even midly irritating stuff have your neighbours stuck in their gardens

One of my neighbors has a pink flamingo (plastic) and all sorts of weird and wonderful things in her garden...not to my taste but amuses me seeing what she's got this time.

I get more irritated by the other neighbor that's out there from 7 am constantly working on their garden and don't get me wrong is beautiful but they even now the public grass outside their home but just that patch

They probably all hate mine as one half is a giant adventure playground for my child. It's the garden of my childhood dreams that I'm living through my child

Ps. Nothing wrong with a Magaluf all inclusive of course, just a case of time and place so to speak.

What infuriates me more is the sliver of grass the developers, of these new homes, call a garden!

"Well OP, it's their choice, their money, their folly, they're jolly..."

And it is, as long as the jolly is not at the expence of the enjoyment others in their own homes around them. Though really I was more about my surprise about all these swimming pools suddenly taking over gardens following a bit of hot weather

My neighbour professes to leave their garden to wildlife but the wildlife are not as wild as the me next door when the pigeons shit all over clean bed sheets and effing well coo n coo in the trees from sun up .... she has NO LESS than 16 bird feeders..

I could cope with that but the fucking wind chimes....... God help me ..... the fucking wind chimes.

I have a lovely south facing garden with pond ,decking, nature area and big trees making it 100% private for naked sunbathing . As soon as I get to spend proper time in the uk it will be blinged with a permanent hot tub , brick bbq area, fairly lights , swings , outdoor gym and I’m gonna build a second pond at the end and a stream meandering down the garden with mini waterfalls flowing between them

Surely the worst thing has to be those chavs who fill their garden at Christmas time with enough tacky plastic shit to illuminate Blackpool. And I don’t mean a few nik naks, I mean clearing out the B&M warehouse of all the ghastly novelties and any naysayers are denounced as miseries.

Yea.

One neighbor has recently added a wind chime.

I've wondered at times if it disturbs people sleeping and if it's considerate or not to have one. It could really be hell for a light sleeper couldn't it?

I quite like the sound and find it soothing and it's the wrong side of the side to disturb me. So I don't find it annoying at all. If anything I would find it annoying I can't hear it when I'm in bed.

But of all the things neighbours could have surely the most annoying potentially would be anything that makes noise wouldn't it?

You can anonymously report excessive feeding to your Council.When a neighbour started throwing out half a bakery every morning I couldn't shoot the rats that appeared quick enough.Put in a report,problem solved in about a week.

It's mostly the mountainous turds their dog plants, and which they fail to clean up (it's all paved), that annoy me.

Lots of flies.

"Rabbits, they keep getting into my garden and I’m worried incase I let the dog out and he hurts one of them because they’re only babies "

They will be long gone before your dog gets near them.Obviously the lethal option is not for you,so the only way to keep them out is to put chicken netting across the front of your fencing with the bottom 2ft buried in the soil so they can't burrow under.
