I'm not implying it's unhealthy, just asking if it's unusual, since based off of what I've read and heard, the typical smell "down there" for a woman seems to be a smell a lot of people compare to tuna.

I was told this is how a vagina naturally smells, though, without an infection. The infection just makes the existing smell stronger.

Hi thanks for the reply. I'll answer each of the questions:

Did you call the police when he sounded the siren at night? Like 999? From what I read here there is enough there to get him cited if not arrested.

I did. Once two years ago, and the most recent time was very late May this year when he started the siren and yelling thing again. Police did arrive at his home on both occasions but he refused to answer the door. The police didn't do anything more besides knocking his door, shouting they're police, and ringing his doorbell. He has a doorbell camera that's hooked up to his smartphone. We get the impression the police just go "oh he's got mental health problems" so refuse to do anything even though he told me what his intentions were two years ago when he was doing the exact same thing.

Don’t retaliate with loud music or deliberate harassment yourself. It might be hard not to. But you need to be spotless victims. You don’t want a ‘let’s look at both sides’ to give the impression you provoked anything at any time.

No worries. We haven't done this.

How is the third semi detached party feeling about this old guy? They must feel some of the nuisance? Surely they could corroborate that your brother isn’t doing werewolf things at night? See if you could get them to write letters or call the police as well. The more neighbours join in, the better (but don’t start a poster campaign, it should look “natural”).

That's something I've been considering. Considering the house is semi detached I'm not sure if the people in the third house can hear the radio blasting all morning. It sounds like the radio is in his hallway right next to the wall between our homes so perhaps they don't hear it. Either way if it continues I'll inquire about it to them. Their house is just a few meters down the road.

Is there something that can be done to stop foxes from coming into the gardens? If they are the “werewolves” here then this could be a way to root out that delusion.

My mum puts out food for them. One of them has bad mange and is very skinny. I haven't heard the foxes lately though, not since the young cubs have grew up. I'll mention this to her though. Foxes aren't the only possible trigger, it's also if he sees one of us going to the car or coming up the street. We notice this seems to trigger him and right after he's blasting the radio all morning or his TV will be on full blast all evening.

Does the old guy have family? Is there a way to reach out to them? Not in “reign in your fucking dickhead father!” but “we are really worried about your father’s mental state because he keeps making outlandish and unsubstantiated statements.”

He does, a niece who lives a way away. She comes up very occasionally to help tend to his garden. Maybe every 6 months or once a year. My mum has complained about him to her and the niece ended up blocking my mum. He lives alone.

Can you google if there is a solicitor in your area that will maybe hear your case for no or a low fee to see if you can take this to court? Either the old dickhead or the council for not doing anything about him? That’s where the paper log might be useful.

Good idea. I'll look into that.

I know it can be stressful, I just really can't be dealing with harassment on top of everything else going on so I'm trying to find a good way of navigating this. I appreciate your help a ton.

Update: The bowl is fixed! It's not perfect, some pieces were very slightly out of alignment but it's intact again and I filled in a little gap too. Feel so relieved! Was surprised with how hot the adhesive got in the little tub as it set and now leaving the bowl 2 days for it to fully cure before using it

I have the pieces and I put the pieces together like a jigsaw puzzle. There's 6 pieces total, and the bowl looks like a very fat crescent moon shape broken. Like a circle with a circular chip in it.

We were both 19 when he died in an accident. So this bowl reminds me of happier times before things went South and this bowl has been through a lot of stuff with me since then too. It's a relic of my teenage years which were the best years of my life. My adult years have yet to be better.

Sorry for the way I worded the title. I'd taken an Ambien shortly before I made this post.

I'll do this. Thanks to everyone who mentioned this!

Says out of stock but I clicked "find this for me" so fingers crossed I'll get an email from them if they find it

Just got what seems like most or all the pieces out of the trash. Nearly all of the part of the plate I put food in is intact so it looks like a very fat crescent moon shape. I have not heard of kintsugi but if there's any people doing it in my area I'll give it a go so thanks!
