Call up your local fire department. Starting a bonfire and then going to work is extremely dangerous. Contact your local council as well - they must have rules against this. I'm sure if he gets a fine he will change his ways.

Take a garden hose and wet EVERYTHING he owns down. Use his water spigot. If he calls the law or gets upset, just tell them his property was on fire and your phone would not work. You were trying to help!

Wait until he goes to work and then get your hosepipe out. Keep doing it until he realises something's not quite right. Mind you - your neighbour sounds a little thick so it could take a while! :-)

There is a law against it, and you need to get in touch with Envirolmental Health a.s.a.p.

Keep a diary, photo and video evidence and take it to the council.

Check with your local police department. as soon as he leaves for work spray the fire with your hose.

If he leaves the fire unattended and goes to work he can definitely get done for it.
