Moved into a new rented house a few weeks ago. Next door have a boy aged around 7-ish and we keep finding toys in our garden that have been thrown over. I usually just throw them back - it's no big deal to me.
A few days ago, I noticed another toy had made it's way over the fence. However, the weather has been pretty awful here and I haven't really been into the garden to throw it back. Popped out this morning and when I got back, I let the dog out and went to throw the toy back but it wasn't there. I'm really confused.
It was a large-ish plastic toy so my little dog hasn't run away with it. DH swears he hasn't chucked it back and no-one else has access to our garden. The only other conclusion I can come to is that someone has jumped over the fence from next door and helped themselves.
I feel really annoyed if this is the case - I'm a bit of an anxious person in general and this has now put me right on edge.
I really would rather not confront my neighbour over it because of the aforementioned anxiety and also because I would probably handle it badly and get off on the wrong foot with said neighbour. I just don't know what to do :/
