Neighbours recently had their home remodelled, which involved them putting new glazing in their bathroom. The glass is not frosted enough and there’s a lot to see.

They are large windows too, starting at knee hight. How do I bring this up?

Bonus points if someone can tell me why this community keeps showing my subscription as pending.

    Bring up this issue happening with you, in casual conversation. For example: “when I moved here the house had a lot of issues, for example […] and the glass was not frosted enough. We eventually fixed this […]”

    The idea here is that you won’t be telling them directly, they’re going to realise it on their own.

      I love this haha, I live in NZ and people here are very indirect and non confrontational.

      I’m Dutch so quite the opposite.

        I was working with a Dutch guy, he’d just flown back to Netherlands and I sent him an email that went something like:

        Hi Jan,

        Hope you made it back ok,

        <work question>

        Cheers,
        Dandan

        He replied inline to my email and under “Hope you made it back ok” he wrote " >I do not understand why this is relevant"
