Not noisy neighbours at home but in a hotel where I had been disturbed by drunken squealing at 2am I "accidentally " caught their door a right smack with my suitcase when I left at 6.30am....childish maybe but I was smiling all the way to the carpark...0

I've heard brake fluid can be a nightmare if it gets on your car's paint.0

Loosen your fanbelt and go for a drive at 05.30 every morning ....
(don't loosen it too much! haha)0 -
In what way are they noisey? I'm sure our next door neighbour who doesn't work thinks we're awful. She shouts at us for doing the washing up at 9.30 pm and flushing the toilet when we go to bed, also said our extractor fan is too noisey and that we shut cupboard doors too noisily. She told our builders off (who were her for a few days) for having a radio on during the day.
She gets back at us by getting up a 5am and shouting for her cat down the garden and clumping round the house if we've had to do some domestic work when we get back from work. There is a pattern to it. Try to live life as normally as we can and for it not rule my life. Unfortunaltley it's the OH who causes most of the later noise (going to bed at midnight) and he sleeps through her cat calling:mad:
Are you being fair? We're a professional couple who are out at work all day and away 1/2 of all weekends, don't have parties and don't have friends round but we're considered noisey. We live in a terraced house, so I do feel that some noise travel is normal. Have never complained to her except when she swore at me through the wall when I turned the bathroom light off after my 8 am shower.
Anyway, ramble over. Can you tell I like the old bat really? I'm sure you have better justification for your annoyance!0 -

Our neighbours cockerel used to cause us great distress and annoyances. It would crow from 4am till 9pm. It did that for four weeks, despite numerous complaints the lady wouldn't do anything because she "Couldn't hear it", but the rest of is could. Well we did, until i dug the old air-rifle out the loft.0

Our neighbour has what I like to call "selective deafness". She can apparently hear her TV at a reasonable volume perfectly well during the day, but the minute I put my son to bed, the volume and base is ramped up on her TV until the walls vibrate. Having been asked numerous times to at least keep it down after 9pm, she claims she "can't hear it unless it's that loud".
What I would like to do to her for the stress and unhappiness she has caused me and my family over the last few years is well outside the law!0 -
as long as your neighbours are alright either side of you leave the music on all day loud straight from when you leave the house and see what she does and says, then act daft and say 'i didn't realise it was on when leaving the house'.:T:T :beer: :beer::beer::beer: to the lil one
