    >and having a laugh<

    Ah, yes. "It's only a laugh, innit mate!" The standard excuse in broken Britain.

    But this is normal in Broken Britain during the Summer...

    Broken Britain = Sun newspaper-ism.

    So at 1am people have a few mates round and having a laugh. Neighbour gets peeved and without even speaking to them damages property - who's more of the trouble maker? Judging by how annoyed they are I'm sure they would have said if it was a regular occurrence.

    I would go for the Paint Stripper Option, but first of all make a stencil which says 'keep the fu**ing noise down" and only pour it in there.

    That should get the message across.

    If people want to have a few mates around and have a laugh it shouldn't be at other peoples expense

    Yes, the cowards way out - damage peoples property rather than face up to them - I can see you're a really intelligent person.

    these responses are ridiculous, how old are all of you?! :mad: Try asking them to turn it down, they may not realise how loud it is, or go round the next day and let them know. Paint stripper on cars, bricks through windows, !!!!!!?

    Chances are there would be a knife in your ribs before you can say 'excuse me...'. The feral underclass can't be reasoned with.

    Best option is plan A. Go round there & ask them to turn the music down. Plan B.If your game enough & they get lippy is threaten to put one of them on there a*se if they don't turn it down. Worked for me. Hope this helps;)

    Its an easy leap. You see,I live in a row of houses and theres no way i'd make that kind of noise any time let alone at 0100hrs.
    Thats becuase i have values and respect for others.
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..
