so before you get all aggro with your neightbours and start to have ago find out if they are the ones causing the problems. then find away to ammicably sort it out.

The aggro way of fuck it report them will only serve to ensure you and your neigbours will never see eye to eye and is morelikely that they will do it just to annoy you...

...

Its absolutely them, we live in a semi detatched house. The noise is loudest in our living room, Thats not a problem to me particularly at 1am. The fact its so loud that its keeping me awake next door when im in the bedroom upstairs nd my daughter who sleeps 2 floors up from the noise is.
His sister lived there for 18 months and we didnt hear them at all ( three kids, one a baby) so I dont think they were particularly quiet nor is there particularly a problem with thin walls etc

most people live in communities and it is not OK for a small minority to make the majority of people's lives a lot more difficult than they need to be.

Exactly . And if these fuddy-duddy dullards who want to go to sleep early all got themselves ear-plugs everybody would be happy and the world would be a happier place.

As Lennon said "imagine all those people...living in harmony".

An imagining, which - with the help of ear-plugs - could become a living utopia.

why should I have to wear earplug to be able to sleep in my own property?
If he wants to give his kids earpplugs fair enough but he should confine his noise to a level within his own property
Like I said, his sister, her bloke and three kids, one of whom was a baby and alledgely screamed all hours lived next door and we never were bothered by them. They used to have friends round too and not once were we disturbed.
Were not prissy people but FFS when they have fuck all to do is it too much to ask to have a bit of consideration for those who have to get up in the morning?

jeeezus! since when did they start enforcing Sharia Law in Shepherd's Bush? :eek:

What you don't think midnight is a reasonable time NOT to be disturbing your neighbours on a weeknight? I don't think 2am at the weekend with no advance warning is too early to expect people to keep it down a bit eh?

what if the other person just soundproof their room

y'know the person causing the problem solving it instead of making others have to do something

That'd be fucking mad, shippou, what the fuck would John Lennon have said?

I mean, WHAT WOULD JOHN LENNON HAVE SAID?

Get a grip!

:D

chico, you 12 or summat?

why not say this to them today that way you can then hopefully resolve this in a friendly fashion. :)
 
Give environmental health a ring and tell them, happened to me more than once and eventually had the police around :o

however because it was all before 10pm and the woman next door pulled the truth a bit she ended up looking like a dickhead :cool:

To expect that at 1am your neighbour wont play music so loudly in his property next door ( living room) that you can hear it in your bedroom?

He would appear to think so....:(
Neither work all day and so are home,( asleep I presume from what the tenants sister said who rented the house before him and wished us a sad sounding err "good luck with him" when she moved out)
They seem to stay up all night, have two teenaged children who presumably are either sleeping through it or are suffering the noise too


*shakes head*

Word with the landlord?

My sis had noisy neighbours and eventually got them evicted after her and the rest of the tenants in the block grouped together and reported their noise - and harrassment to the council and other people.

It took a while though.

he would probably have said "arrgh stop hitting me" as i stoved his head in for playing imagine at top volume at 3am

yea i'm suprised there wasn't a verse about earplugs (and of course the respective world-peace benefits of owning a pair!) in 'imagine' actually. john was missing a trick there!
 
My neighbour likes to shine a 400 million mega watt light right into my bedroom all night, is it unreasonable to complain to them?

chico - no, get an eye mask

:D
 
LMHF, you've got my sympathy. My neighbours are noisy and I tend to just try and let them get on with it - they sound better than yours - but it sure gets me down sometimes
 
*to be sung to the tune of 'Imagine'*

Imagine there's no sleep-disruption
It's easy if you try
No noise to wake us
Peaceful as we lie
Imagine all the people
Living for today

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
get yourself some earplugs
And the world will sleep as one

:p

Possibly "I am the Walvrus/I am the Egg-man" as he would be feeling - rightfully - disoriented at being so rudely disturbed by a braying lunatic banging on his door.

Indeed, perhaps at this juncture It may be better to bade adieu to Liverpool's favourite mop-topped sons and ask Gene Simmons and Noddy Holder for their respective opinions on the noise-abatement issue.

To which they may well reply:

"I LIKE IT LOUD" and "C'MON , BRING THE NOISE"

and tell you to fuck off and buy some ear-plugs :)

:confused:

alternatively:

I made a rock-n-roll sin
When I tried giving in, to make money had to turn down loud
They said, "Why be proud, don't play so loud
Be like us and get a sound that's real thin
Wear a polyester suit, act happy, look cute, get a haircut
And buy small gear"
That's when I turned to them and said, hold it, right there

Well it's more to me than just a job, and while I'm playing
You won't get robbed
Nobody tells a man how to play, it just ain't that way
Hey, hey, hey, can you hear me say

All men play on ten, never gonna turn down again
All men play on ten, never gonna turn down again

I'm jet fuel honey, plug me in to 220, step back and let
My fingers fly
While I'm burning up my gear, there's a fire in your ear
That's won't stop until the day you die
I really put it to the floor when I hear the crowd roar
Oh, it's music to my ears when they scream
Then! Run back the power jack, and deck, all of my gear

Well it's more to me than just a job, and while I'm playing
You won't get robbed
Nobody tells a man how to play, it just ain't that way
Hey, hey, hey, can you hear me say

All men play on ten, never gonna turn down again
All men play on ten, never gonna turn down again

Well it's more to me than just a job, and while I'm playing

Haven't read the whole thread so appologies if already suggested by someone else.

They sleep whilst you are out yes?

Ask nicely one more time. No complience then:
  • Turn your stereo on and load the shittiest music you can think of on a loop (two songs only on a loop is best if you have a playlist set up, play one song three times in a row and then the other three times, really annoying).
  • Face speakers to their wall.
  • Go to work
.

Maybe then they'll get the hint.

Could I suggest agadoo and that I am the music man song as the two most likely to drive anyone insane??

I truly hope you get this resolved before anyone 'loses the plot' :(
 
The person who lives above me puts on one really really rubbish reggae song and then goes out. I equate him with the priest who replaces Father Jack on that episode of Father Ted.

:mad:

He is worse than Hitler.

Then Id reserve the right to take a baseball bat to the electricity supply situated on the side of the property, Followed swiftly by your face. You could party as much as you wanted them from the comfort of your hospital bed:)

meanwhile, back in the real world, you'd probably put your pillow over your head. :)
 
or put a pillow over their head smothering them so as the life fades from them the last thing they hear is their music getting dimmer and dimmer...... just like you asked for

I assume you are about 12 years old. Noise nuisance after 23.30 hours is defined as anything over 25dba. It is legally enforceable and any anti-social bastards ignoring it can have their sound system confiscated.

Itsy bitty teeny weeny yellow poker dot bikini was used for interogation in a film i onced watched. Can't help but think using that one would be beyond immoral.

3am ain't late. that's going to bed time. playing music loud any later than that on sunday-thurs is a bit out of order tho.
For you, maybe. :rolleyes:

For other people, that's only three or four hours before they'd due to get up for a full day at work!
