It looks like I’m not alone so.

Good stories Calibos. Everyone must have a story.

There are about 10 houses across the back from me in the south that can see what I’m doing and I don’t know the people in any of them. If they ever have a problem they come around and talk to me.

My next door neighbors can’t see me but one of them has a little dog which always barks like mad when I’m putting out washing etc.

One night I was out with the bio’s in the dark and there back door opened and the dog flew out and went mad. I didn’t know were to turn. I just stud there completely still for 5 minutes hoping no one would see me. They eventually brought the dog in thank God.

I don’t think it looks as bad when you have a telescope out the back but the binoculars are the tool of the voyeur. Feck it I won’t worry about it any more.

:laugh: Hilarious post! I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who went through this! I was using binos for about 3 months before buying a scope, I have to say to crescent that I feel a hell of a lot better since getting the scope! The binos and stand are only used when I go to dark sites now!

To calibos, low lying lamp and blinds to facilitate silhouetting - sounds like you have a couple of exhibitionists there in your community! Must try that one myself.... :laugh:

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.
