I think for now I'll just day dream about playing with stink bombs in my garden as a way of trying to de-stress. Because I certainly can't do anything else I love doing to unwind without the awful noise or smell. Failing that, sometimes local MPs can write a letter to the relevant person at the local council or police station, and while they're all going to be gearing up for June, it might be worth a punt. They've been told to keep the fire exit doors shut by the letting agent and the environmental health officer. They say they'll keep them shut to these people, then will open the doors and keep them open throughout the day. Having experience of someone else who was like this, I know that sometimes the only way to get them to listen isn't with words but actions. For instance my ex fiance, when he was lodging with me left bread crumbs all over the kitchen, despite me asking him nicely to clean up after himself. He'd say he would but never did. The only time he did start cleaning up after himself was when I put his bread crumbs in his bed. The offence under section 2 of the 1883 Act is wider than the Offences Against the Persons Act offences because:

Section 9 of the ESA 1883 provides the definition of “explosive substance”. This includes “any materials for making any explosive substance; also any apparatus, machine, implement, or materials used, or intended to be used, or adapted for causing, or aiding in causing, any explosion in or with any explosive substance; also any part of any such apparatus, machine, or implement.” “Explosive” is not defined in the legislation. When considering the legislation and authorities concerning the offences in sections 2, 3 and 4 ESA 1883, prosecutors should in particular note the following. Explosive substance Expert evidence should only seek to assist with specialist knowledge and information outside the knowledge of the tribunal of fact. Proof of the offence may come, in part, from what non-expert witnesses have observed. Highly exceptionally it may come solely from non-expert witnesses where it is established that an expert cannot assist with specialist knowledge and information and where the non-expert evidence provides sufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction. Prosecutors should make clear in such highly exceptional cases the position as to expert evidence in their application for consent, liaising with the AGO as appropriate prior to submission of the application. Consent applications must explain the prosecutor’s position on the question of expert evidence. In threshold test cases, this includes on what basis it is said there are reasonable grounds to suspect the person to be charged has committed the offence alleged, and what further evidence is likely to be available within a reasonable time. This will ordinarily involve providing at least preliminary expert evidence with the application. Lawful object In 1998, the Pentagon commissioned scientist Pam Dalton, from the Monell Chemical Senses Centre in Philadelphia, to test disgusting odours.

I'm going to tell my neighbour about the plan as he spends time outside during the day too. Though he's smelt the cannabis smoke as well as my friend further down the road. So hopefully he'll understand. Dalton believes that a combination of these two smells released into a crowd would cause panic. She said: 'If these were released, they would clear an area in seconds.'

The US stink bomb research is part of the Pentagon's non-lethal weapons programme, which is working closely with the British military. The ESA 1883 offences are serious: all carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment. If there is sufficient evidence to prosecute, it is likely that a prosecution will be in the public interest. However, the public interest factors in the Code must be considered. Further guidance on relevant considerations can be found in other prosecution guidance, including Mental Health – suspects and defendants and Children as suspects and defendants. Dalton said: 'It's very pungent... more precisely, it smells like shit, but much, much stronger. It fills your head. It gets to you in ways that are unimaginable. It's not something you are likely to come across in the real world.'

I know this is probably a ridicolous idea and question I'm currently unable to spend much time in my garden due to some obnoxious people working in the two business units that are around 3m from the bottom of my garden. There's a lot of noise, but at least in a pinch I can wear headphones, although that defeats the point of me being in the garden as I want to hear the birds. The main problem though is that they're smoking cannabis in the rear fire escape route. This means that my garden is filled with the smell of cannabis smoke - the other day I opened my kitchen door and was hit by the smell. This gives me a splitting headache and means that I really can't be out in my garden until the smell goes away. As holding my breath or wearing a vapour mask isn't really an option. for explosive precursors, see sections 3A to 3C Poisons Act 1972 (maximum penalty on indictment 2 years’ imprisonment but penalties vary depending on the provision)

for throwing/discharging a firework in a public place, see section 80 Explosive Substances Act 1875 (financial penalty only) This applies to non-terrorist offending. Potential Terrorism Act offences would fall to the Counter Terrorism Division to consider.

She said that the smell made volunteers scream and curse after just a few seconds of exposure, even though it is quite harmless. Response by poster: Thanks for the comments everyone. I must admit I'm not thinking straight at the moment due to the stress of the noise pollution and the worry about the fire hazard etc. It's one of those things that is more satisfying to think about than do. I feel like I'm trapped in my front room and have started dreading leaving work due to the noise. given the obvious risks with using explosive substances, any experimentation involving them which gives rise to a risk of harm to other people or their property, or other unlawfulness such as causing a public nuisance, will not be capable of coming within the scope of the lawful object defence.” Ed Hammond of the Sunshine Project, which campaigns against the misuses of biotechnology, said: 'It appears these weapons cross a dangerous line and appear to be tantamount to developing some kind of ethnic weapon. '

Best answer: If you can see them, or at least see the open doors, can you record them in some way, say with photos (with date and time stamps) or on video? Then you will have something to show to the letting agents / EHOs. I would also log each breach in writing. consider ESA 1883 charges or charges contrary to section 28, 29, 30 or 64 Offences Against the Person Act 1861 (explosives offending involving grievous bodily harm, caused or intended – or other intent contrary to the Act)whether the explosives were handled and stored responsibly and with care or whether their storage was hazardous
