    @friskiffla - If you live near the Innocent Railway Tunnel, I know which development you live in, and have had LITERALLY the same arguments in the exact same situation!

    My favourite moment was when one of the higher ups in the committee complained about the gardeners using a leaf blower rather than a rake, because they work from home and it was disturbing them, and then another of the higher ups brought up that you weren't meant to work from home. Ace.

    @RWoods - welcome. Beware of communal garages IMHO. In the development I mention above the garage we had access to was accessed by the use of a bin key and was regularly left open, and regularly raided by kids. No way I'd leave my bike there. One neightbour had sneakily installed a ground anchor and another had made a bucket of concrete with an old D-lock set in it. That was pretty good but I'd still not keep a racing bike there!

    Well done @RWoods for the exemplary way you handled this issue, and I'm glad you are now bezzies with your neighbours. It will also hopefully be good PR for cycling. If only all cycling related controversies could be managed in such an objective manner.

    Weloome.

    a heartwarming conclusion !

    @ARobComp I've not lived near the Innocent tunnel... yet. Maybe my neighbour lived there previously. Also I like the concrete in the bucket idea.

    Agree this is a nice conclusion. Maybe I should try the same approach.

    Small world.

    I lived near the Innocent tunnel a few years ago, and although we never had issues, a neighbour told us they'd been told by another neighbour not to hang their washing outside. Maybe we were neighbours, ARobComp.

    All rules MUST be adhered to (see left panel).

    ...we are still allowed to hang our washing up outside?

    If there's no problem with the landlord I guess I'll ignore these horrible neighbors.

    If this happens again, Ill speak with landlord myself.
