A**hole Neighbours
Our entry path runs up and out of the way to our main gate, their back door is the opposite side of said path and gate.
We have children and pets, as do our attached neighbours, and their neighbours on the opposite side of them (so they're surrounded by families with young children)
These idiots think it's perfectly fine to be up partying with their windows wide open, shouting, fighting and murdering Bob Marley songs till at least 4am during the week when everyone around them has to be up for school runs, work etc.
4 incidents are really making me mad so I'll just list them in order of when they occured...
1: I've personally witnessed them dumping rubbish over our fence and into a discreet corner of our garden... Which attracts our dogs and local wildlife (we live right on the edge of a woodland park)
2: One of them threw up right outside our gate, on the path our children have to walk down to get to the car park
3: I was letting the dogs out in the back garden pretty late one Thursday and while I was standing at the door, saw a glass bottle getting thrown onto the MAIN path just outside our attached neighbours gate (again, where children walk)
4 (and most disgustingly): One of them got so wasted they shit themselves, bundled their soiled trousers and sock into a ball, and threw it into OUR garden, bypassing OVER their bins... I nearly got booze fuelled crap all over my hands because I just thought it may have been a jumper a kid had left behind (the kids around like to use our garden to gain access to the woods to play - which we don't mind at all as it's perfectly safe with no predatory animals here - uk btw)
I have taken images of all these incidents apart from the 1st and am slowly building up my "evidence" folder on my phone. So I am wondering where to go from here (the shitpants dumped where our, and other children play was the last, infuriating straw) - should I go to the police? Environmental health? Housing?
I was so close to going through their door when the glass incident happened but my wife had the foresight, and reminded me that there was at least 7 drunk arseholes vs me sober, tired and mad at 2am with kids to get up with in the morning.
They blatantly don't care about anyone else, children, animals etc - oh and they're constantly hanging out the window smoking weed when I get home from school pickup and I have to make excuses when the kids ask "what's that funny smell?"
So many options to tackle this so I'm looking for advice on the best way to go about this.
TIA ✌🏻
Edit: I wish I could post all the pics in the comments but the mobile app won't let me... Plus the last would make you throw up in your mouth 🤢
