Hypocritical neighbours

We are all spying and hypocritical are we Rosalyn69 ? We all think we have higher standards and we are sanctimonious and self righteous that is a good post to put out.

Your post says it all you have not put up with idiot neighbours so you must have a nice big house with spacious grounds where you have not been bothered with others that are less than considerate of people.
The bloody lockdown was put in place for a reason and some of us have not seen family or grand-children for weeks on end because we have stuck to the rules. So take your sanctimonious and self righteousness and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.

I'm happy to have a moan on here.

you can report them
i would ...

Likewise.

I cant say any more just that I am angry at the blatant disregard for what the majority of us are doing.

All I can say is I’m glad I don’t live next door to a lot of you ladies and/gents. Of course it’s spying and it is hypocritical.
“Behaving in a way that suggests one has higher standards or more noble belief”. Also sanctimonious and self-righteous.

Yesterday everyone in my daughters close, including two nurses, and one Mum of a new young Nurse (only qualified a year ago) had all the families out the front (right outside my door pretty much, two steps out of my house and I would have been in their midst) all singing, getting drunk, sat apart at first, then as the evening wore on, inhibitions fled, and they were all sat arms round one another, while my daughter and her husband and children all tried to watch their film and play their games.
The smoke from the BBQ that was right out side their house filled the house so my grandaughter was coughing all night which isn't the best thing atm, and my daughter just felt like sobbing.
Her older children are still working so hard, they would love to be able to meet up with friends and have fun, however, they want to keep people safe and the NHS from getting snowed under again.
And as my daughter expected, the taste of freedom was so enjoyable to those neighbours last night, that they are back there today, sunning themselves right outside her house, all loud, laughing, enjoying this like its a holiday...I predict a huge surge / spike in deaths in a couple of weeks, where they will blame everyone but themselves.
Selfish.
They have been reported, but thanks to the 20,000 police cuts the Tories so kindly made, we won't see a darned thing happen to them. :-(
I long to be governed by someone who can be clear, concise, and actually sort out a proper lockdown.

There is a merry band of us snitches, moaners, and busybodies.

Well I feel a lot better now that most of you feel the same. I’m just of the opinion that my neighbours, who are immediately next door to me are either selfish or a bit dim !! They’re young - I’m over 70 so that’s my excuse. I didn’t phone the police because when all this is over I’d like to think that I’ll get on ok with them like I did before. ALANaV re your comment about ‘spying’, that isn’t the case. Our properties share the same drive and adjacent garages. I was concerned that I would bump into one of their coming and going guests and so couldn’t pop out to get my gardening tools which I keep in there

I live in a sheltered housing scheme, we are lucky to have grounds we can sit in. But there is one neighbours that complains about us. We sit 2 metres apart, so as far as we think doing nothing wrong, but the neighbour has her friends around and sit outside her flat which is actually in our grounds, that`s ok . They make uo there own rules to suit

Same here with next door, they've had their Mum & Dad both visit, their brother and his wife, a friend and her small Son all sitting next to each other in the back garden. Then yesterday they allowed their two daughters to go and visit their friends for the afternoon across the road. The mother goes out shopping more now than ever before. Nobody wants to be a misery but come on, I haven't seen my Daughter or Grandchildren for six weeks because we are following the rules and hoping firstly to not get infected and secondly to stay at home as we have been asked to. Yesterday was lovely, most of the neighbours had a tea party in their own front garden and enjoyed the day, the front gardens are large so plenty of safe distancing.

Theyre Corona idiots.theres a police website you can report dangerous behaviour anonymously. Cant contain idiots

I'd feel ashamed of myself if a neighbour "grassed" on me for behaving in such a selfish way.

We had afternoon tea on our front lawn yesterday and we watched as most of the locals did the same and kept to the distancing rules. But, two doors down had two cars full of visitors bringing presents and cakes. So I guess it was a birthday.They all went into the house, though later sat out the front in the sunshine. There was no social distancing at all and at one point a child walked right up to our neighbour with a slice of cake for them!

One rule for them while the rest of us are behaving, though we would love to have AC and grandchildren to visit.

You are not being hypocritical just observing the rules. My neighbours have had the full family flow of family since the lockdown began. In fact it is two houses next door to each other and they are both two families of "Twats" There is no
use reporting them to police as the police have enough to do.

I did not let them ruin my V.E day yesterday although most of it I watched on T.V. I did enjoy the Vera Lyn song and listened to it inside. There was no point in singing it outside as the "neighbours " even at 9pm were outside playing their Reggae music. They haven't got a patriotic bone in their bodies. God I am praying that Sunday rolls around as we are expecting colder weather and low temperatures which no doubt will keep them inside their houses. "Praise the lord" for small mercies. By the way I like your word GRINCH and that is what I am going to start calling the neighbours.

I was disgusted by my niece when she said her daughter and granddaughter came to visit and she drove them home afterwards. She said it was alright because they had been isolated for fourteen days. The country they live in has very strict laws about the virus with heavy fines for flouting them.

Oh dear......PLEASE live and let live. This mass hysteria has to stop at some point ….think how you would feel if your neighbour 'grassed' on you ….I hate this spying on people. We could ALL be carriers....or had the disease as there is no testing available for ordinary people ….the sad truth is no one knows much about it still and the sooner we are treated as adults and not children the better.

I felt a bit of a party pooper for not going out yesterday and eating on my front lawn, although I hung out a union Jack and observed the Silence.
Reading all this I am glad that I didn't.
Someone took issue with their neighbours about extra family members in the back garden and was told that they were all two metres apart, which they clearly weren't.

I'm another one who is thoroughly fed up with selfish twats. My next door neighbour and I are both in the highly vulnerable categories that have had to shield and isolate, yet the younger families in the block sometimes stand well apart to chat and other times pass by very closely, allow various ages of children to play together and share toys (that I have never seen any of the parents so much as wipe down). I dread one of these idiots killing me or someone I care about. I'm furious that those key workers who have kept the country functioning, cared for the sick, comforted the dying, buried the dead, driven for miles to keep essential supplies stocked, delivered mail, worked long hours in supermarkets etc are being put at risk even further from people that deep down are selfish, entitled, hypocrites that think they are exempt from anything they don't like, that can meet up whenever they want. My better half has been shopping for us, our neighbour and an elderly customer of theirs (also shielded) and has been annoyed at families dragging brats who touch everything in the shop, who have coughed and sneezed the whole time and not made any attempt to cover their faces....If social distancing wasn't so important someone may well have given them a slap but as it was nobody wanted to be anywhere near them! We'd all like to go out, see loved ones, do normal things again but the majority want to see the back of this virus, not put others at risk and protect our NHS and key workers. Thanks to these idiots I fear lockdown and the virus will be here for longer than it needed to be.

There’s probably something in the modelling that assumes a certain amount of people will flout the rules at certain periods of the ‘lockdown‘.

We can only live our own lives. Yes we are doing the right thing and a lot of others are too. Some aren’t.
Reporting people to the police is abhorrent to me. I’m sorry. It’s a nasty thing to do. Carry on doing the right thing and stay at home but stop spying and reporting people to the police.

Cannot understand why people don't think that it will not happen to them. House next door to me and next one after that are like building sites, with work going on most days and amount of people arriving unbelievable. Don't want to fall out with new neighbour before he moves in. My husband is in sheltered group, daughter works in hospital and son is a paramedic. Take care everyone

Yesterday my DD came to my house and she sat at the end of my pathway,I placed a small table in the middle of the path and she set up afternoon tea for us each taking what we wanted and keeping our distance all the time.
While we where outside during the two hours my neighbour 2 doors down had 6 lots of visitors parking and going into his home,hugging each other as each arrived in total about 18 people over the 2 hours just stupid behaviour,these are not the sort of families you can report unfortunately.

No you are perfectly correct. It’s people like them that spread this dreadful virus. No thought for others whatsoever.

This makes such depressing reading for those of use who are sticking to the rules by the letter. What makes people so irresponsible and stupid! I would love to see my family too but have to accept for the good of everyone I can't.
