this one caught my eye:

surprised they didn't lock the neighbour up for hate crime?

Would have thought the following were actually things the Police should deal with?

even if it is to direct them to the Dog warden, noise abatement team. The throwing stones could be seen as criminal damage?

or am I being silly?

not silly at all, it seems the 999 goalposts have been moved, unless you've been murdered they aren't really interested.

'I've lost my trousers! These carol singers are criminally bad!': Time-wasting 999 callers are warned they could face action | Mail Online
this one caught my eye:

Caller disliked by his neighbour because he used to jump up and down on a trampoline in a dress.

surprised they didn't lock the neighbour up for hate crime?

Would have thought the following were actually things the Police should deal with?

There is a couple with a big brown dog that is running around. It has not been aggressive towards anyone but caller is concerned as to the size of the dog. He has spoken to the couple about the dog but they have not done anything.

Caller wanting to report some youths being a nuisance. They have been coming on the street singing Christmas carols but they can’t sing and it seems they are just trying to get some money.

The neighbours next door are making love very loudly with the windows open. This has been going on for some time. Caller very distressed.

Caller reporting four or five youths aged five to 11 on the street and they have thrown a stone at her window and smashed it. On inspection of said window it transpires there is no damage just a mud mark which has wiped off.

even if it is to direct them to the Dog warden, noise abatement team. The throwing stones could be seen as criminal damage?

or am I being silly?
