• we have just been using Next Door platform to find out which of our village pumps has anything. managed to score £30 of diesel yesterday. one garage had petrol only. two were completely closed. then I found the diesel. all within short range.

    it's the only time I have found Next Door useful it's a proper old load of curtain twitching nonsense

  • Person A: there’s a man in a “BT internet” high vis jacket playing about in one of the green boxes on the pavement, is this suspicious?

    Person B: this can be a technique used by thieves to case out your house, be vigilant and maybe call the police to be sure xxx

    Apparently everything that ever happens on any street is a ruse deployed to case out houses for robberies.
    Also, “cat spotted in garden, polite request to owner to stop cat coming in our garden please” is a regular post. Have they ever interacted with a cat/animal in their lives?! I signed up as I heard it was good for business (sparky) but all the enquiries had red flags all over them, so I promptly deleted my advert!

    haha, local facebook group had a post about a 'suspicious' banana skin left on somebody's front garden wall. Apparently they were going to be burgled the next day.

    Best one on our old local Facebook was seeking out a cat owner to pay for a broken vase or something the cat had knocked over upon gaining entry to stranger's house. No one came forward, oddly.
