Neighbours Complaining! Help!

honeyD - you are living next to my old neighbours surely......

We used to ensure all of that, and the teenage boys got electric drums and guitars in the year before we left. They seemed not to know how to play them either!! It was a nightmare, parties all night, and we suspected drug dealing too (teenagers popping in for 5 minutes and leaving - all day!) and so the list goes on, she used to leave the kids (at the ages of 7 and 9) all day in the school holidays, evenings and weekends (I told the police and she they confronted her but she still continued).... One night the bloke was laying a wooden floor upstars and was hammering until 1am. If we used to do DIY we would go and tell them and that we would finish by 7pm but one night, a few nights after the 1am hammering, my husband used the drill at 7.15 and they came and asked us if we could stop..... My husband was speechless. The alarm clock used to go off at 5am and it used to go on and on and on and on...... so we set our alarm clock radio at loud and went away for the weekend, setting it at 4.30am. LOL. We never heard theirs again.

The new people who moved in after we left bought it rom the LL and were using the converted loft as a music studio. And they had 2 dogs. LOL. Karma!!

I do not think the OP is making that much noise TBH - especially if this has all happened in 3 months, it is not a great deal - they are out at work so quiet all day, you cannot spend your days tiptoeing around your house, that you pay to live in, but you have athe choice, when your tenancy is almost up give your notice and look for somewhere else, it is a pain but less of a pain than worrying about every move you make upsetting the neighbours.you'll end up being stressed over how much noice you are making. It'll also cause stress between you and BF because Before you sign for your next property go around during the evening at the weekend and see what kind of street it is too. See if you can view later in the day when the kids are out of school for example, and you'll get more of an idea of how much noice is coming from the other houses. Look for an old council semi - they are pretty much soundproof!

Sounding even more chavvy now.

I am no 'chav' but I'd certainly do the same if I was chucked out for making noise 3 or 4 times in 3 months - one time of which was during the day!! They clearly have no idea what having nightmare neighbours is so maybe they need showing what nightmare neighbours are actually like.

I've lived somwhere that people in the flat below complained when we walked from room to room in a carpeted house. Some people just like to whinge about anything unfortunately.

OP, can you record their screaming matches and play it back through the walls, when they compain tell them 'actually, it was you, I recorded you and that was how much noise you make so I thought I'd show you'. :rotfl:

Its called a typing error.
Not a spelling error.

Is that difficult for you to grasp?

A spell checker would have highlighted it anyway. Is that too hard a concept for you? did you think it only checked words you did not know how to spell in the first place? Are you confusing it with a dictionary? Your retort would have made sense then.
