Hi everyone I have always thought there were weirdos around our complex at night and my worries were justified as I got woken up to a drunken young man talking to our female neighbour in her courtyard. she was telling him he was in the wrong complex and to get out of her courtyard. he then made a racket as he climbed over the metal fence.
stay safe ladies.

That would have felt quite confronting i expect @Bunniekins . A very brave neighbour you have!
How has it left you feeling?
Did you manage to get some extra sleep after?

@AlwaysMyself hi AlwaysMyself yes she is very brave. She was using a loud voice which was smart as it would have woken up a number of neighbours. TBH i was ready to jump out of bed and go over it is escalated. it validated what i have been saying to my children for months now about prowlers in our back courtyard. I told my kids and i am never alone so all is good.
