A WOMAN is being driven crazy by her neighbours who choose an odd time to de-ice their vehicles.
A mum turned to the internet for advice about her neighbours causing a racket late at night.
In a “light-hearted” post on Mumsnet, the user explained how their neighbours begin de-icing their cars and driveway at 10.30pm.
The post said: “It’s frozen solid here, road is an ice rink. Neighbours are 60s and both retired, nice couple.
“For the past 45 mins they have both been outside in -3C scraping ice off the steps, the car and god knows what else.”
The concerned user asked the neighbours if they needed help de-icing to go somewhere, but the couple said they weren’t leaving.
She has been kept up at night by the noise.
She said: “Do they want to fall on the ice or get hypothermia? Or are they just trying new ways to drive me round the bend? Aaaarghhh!!”
Users on the platform were all confused as to why the couple chose night time to de-ice.
One commented: “How bizarre, it’s just going to be back again by the time they need to go anywhere.”
Someone else said: “Definitely odd behaviour. My guess is they felt the need to do some exercise but don’t like going to the gym, they need it to be socially conscious exercising, so they’re going to do the neighbourhood, but not during the day as they don’t want to be in anyone’s way.
“It must be this, surely.”
Another suggested sprinkling salt on their walkway to save time and trouble over the incident.
The situation could be worse, one man’s neighbour revved his car at all hours of the night.
The man got revenge in a hilarious way: by cling-filming the entire car.
Commenting on the instance, they said: “Whoever did this to this idiot’s noisy little car that likes to sit there revving his engine for hours…
“You, my friend, are a legend.”
