all sorts of coincidences happened, which culminated in me going to see the landlord of the house next door with my other (nice) neighbour. basically, i laid it on witha trowel, and gave him my log of all the ghastly things the asboids next door get up to, and...
he said he'll give them four weeks notice to fuck off!
now, don't hold your breath, cos i'm not sure it's legal to give them less than two months' notice. but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. just in time, as they trashed my car the day before yesterday, not that badly, but enough to worry me about the six hours driving i have to do on saturday, and the MOT next tuesday, AND how much it's going to cost to fix it. luckily, my nice neighbour saw him do it, and will testify. wankers.
