Can you tell i've been there before....
I wish it was that simple for us, 10 months of hell from our neighbours.
I think we've made things 100 times worse by keeping the diary and recording all the noise, shes now been contacted again and she went mental at teatime last night. I've now got to go to my moms in the day till this blows over as shes made threats about getting her own back kind of thing. Shes already ran after me asking for a fight and knocked on my door shouting etc in the past, so i don't feel safe here at all now.
We've got another estate agents coming over tonight, its going to look bad if shes going mad again
Our flat is supposed to be going on the market, but at this rate it wont be worth bothering as i know she wont let anyone buy it as she hates me so much.
The council is rubbish-so are the police. They think there isnt a problem! We've had to use our cam corder to record things, as the noise abatement wouldnt send us any equipment. I'm sick of it all. I'm made out to be a liar, and look really stupid. But i hope they're going to take us seriously after all the video's we've sent to them (and landlady and environmental health). I'll have a nervous breakdown at this rate.
Sorry for the long rant, but this is seriously stressing me out.

Still catching up but had to reply to this and say I took her to the docs the other week and GP was asking is she developing OK? weight OK? Hv's Happy? So I said No HV's not happy because weight is below 2nd centile, GP says Oh well, someones got to be there! (why couldn't I see him months ago when they were on my case)
Anyway she's fine, I've no idea how much she weighs cos I've stopped taking her (but last time she had shot up towards 25th centile) she is still in 6-9M clothes so v mse!
I can't believe how many words Benjamin has and his walking! El pretty much only says mummy daddy and 'high 5' and she will not let go and walk.
Oh Keely that sounds bad, poor you! I hope you can get away, could you buy something new so you can get a part exchange? That way it won't matter about her cos they buy the house anywayMFW Start Sep 07 £79484, Now £587740 -

Aww bless you, I found myself doing that when he first went in there lol, he had his feed at 8pm then we put him in his room, he fell asleep about 9ish (he had fallen asleep in my arms downstairs but when I transferred him to his cot he woke argh lol) then he woke at 12ish and 4.30ish (didnt eat much then) then again at 6.30 but he is back in his cot asleep now
:mad::mad::mad:There is a dog barking in the lane and I can hear it through his monitor!!!!! he's made some groaning sounds I hope he doesnt wake up, he's been a nightmare the last couple of days cos he's been tired but works himself up so much crying not been able to sleep so I wanted to give him a decent sleep.
My friend is coming over today with her baby Zak she had him two weeks after me, I cant wait to see him, and see Elliot and Zak together lol
Beenie - Can you record it from your house??? just to prove (even to them how loud it is) I cant believe someone listens to music that much I mean do they have nothing better to do lol, I havent stuck a CD on in ages lol ETA just seen that youve tried recording it
and that its not music its films and games, so basically my post is now pointless lol
Grrr Tara thats so annoying about the swimming!
Susan - Ah right, well I am sure we will figure something out with a meet, I MAY be getting driving lessons so if I pass my test then it wouldnt matter where the meet was lol
We had swimming lessons at school I think they were free but my mam sais they were crap cos there wsa so many kids tehre or something? my mam ended up paying for our lessons privatly with the lesiure centre cos we werent learning anything, I got a lot of badges
Beenie dont worry about your FB findings, its totally normal to look up people you know on there and if their profile is public well then thats their problem
Jenny - Ah I had to get out of bed anyway cos he is bottle fed, so I have to run downstairs to get his bottle etc lol
Redmel I am going to have the same problem E has been waking up earlier every day cos of the blooming light lol, we have vertical blinds and curtains in there, we had some material left over form the curtains so my mam is going to make a roller blind so we will have vertical blinds, then roller blind, then curtains lol so hopefully that will helpDebt £30,823.48/£44,856.56 ~ 06/02/21 - 31.28% Paid OffMortgage (01/04/09 - 01/07/39)

If you can get to mine I'll probably drive down.
I am now planning my ikea shopping list
hi jenny! either is good for me. The more the merrier as they say.
aless - up to you as you are waiting for payday /have a lovely offer!
lovely here this morning - Tom slept brilliantly the last 2 nights, his mummy feels like a human being for the first time in yonks. Good job the sun is shining too as I need rapid drying nappies this morning, the last dry one is about to go on and the washing machine hasn't finished yet!
Has anyone tried these http://www.babybots.co.uk/coolababy.htm? They look quite like the bumgenius we use but are a lot cheaper and a couple more nappies wouldn't hurt.0 -
I've already rang the council, 9:01am... lol. She wasn't there though so i left a message for her asking if she can go and have a word with them soon as i can't take anymore.
She better flippin go today :mad::mad: I rarely lose my temper but i fear if it goes on like this any longer i'll end up losing it. If only i was a big rugby player man, i sorely doubt they'd screw with me then!0 -

No, but they're very cute!! If you need a cheap nappy site (and don't mind used), http://www.thenappysite.co.uk is brill for its classifieds listings. I got a massive pack of nappies/wraps/liners for like £20 and they are supposed to last until potty-trained! :cool:

I forgot we should get our tax credits payments by then so I can eat lunch on gov't money, lol...unless lou needs a different date, of course, we'll see what she says.top 2013 wins: iPad, £50 dental care, £50 sportswear, £50 Nectar GC, £300 B&Q GC; jewellery, Bumbo, 12xPringles, 2xDiesel EDT, £25 Morrisons, £50 Loch Fyne

Hi quick question,
Izzy has started banging her head on the floor when she is crying, and its anything from I'm bored to I am hungry that shes doing it for. She gets herself so worked up that she is inconsolable (so much that she cant eat sometimes), it started happening about 2 weeks ago and only happens once or twice a day but she can carry on for upto an hour. Any one got any ideas? I have tried distracting her, taking her out, cuddles, raspberries on tummy, restraining her, nothing seems to work! Is this just a phase? She is 11 months.
Hope everyone is well
PS I was given a 10m swimming certificate by my primary school when I had already swum 1 mile the year before in private lessons. :cool:DS1 arrived 22/02/11! 8lb3oz
