apologies for the wilmslowesque nature of this question...

Could it be one of the owners kids?

no, the agent spoke with the owner who said they were not there either, but he had given the keys to someone to do some work!!! so god knows what is going on. the owner was really annoyed and unhappy that someone was there and we were getting disturbed four or five times a night

He has probably killed the kids and is going to kill you tonight for grassing him up.

Maybe some dodgy builder is trying to fit the work around his day job. It does sound a bit suspect though.

minestrone is mostly harmless (and odd)

Ooh. Terrorists. I would rather have drug dealers personally.

It's what happens: druggy comes up to you in the street 'spare us a bit of cash for a cup of tea', next thing you find they're squatting in your shed/garage/house, and if you ask why, they'll say you gave them permission. I do believe they actually believe it too. It's what they're like.

I know what you mean. I bought a Big Issue two years ago, the fella who sold it to me is living in my garage now. Nightmare.

[MaryPoppins]

Did he give a discount for cash?

You talkin' to me?

Good call. Phone the police and let them know you've seen an Arab looking bloke in an empty house next door acting suspicious.

They'll storm the house before you can Raoul Moat!

When I lived in a flat and had some noisy Aussie neighbours, I knocked on their door, called them koonts and told them if I heard anything more that got me out of bed, I would break the door down and beat the crap out of them. I was so angry I meant it and it showed. Never heard a peep after that.

Whoa there!!! That caused a huge spike on the Bulltulip-O-Meter!! Like watching a rerun of the Kobe richter-scale meters!
Why is it that when I try to imagine you getting all militant and intimidatory, I automatically get a vision of Bungle shaking his head and stamping his feet??
