Does anyone play words with friends on iPhone? It's like scrabble. How do I find one of you to play scrabble with?
Me and oh play words with friends constantly. Sometimes leaving it a day then picking the game back up. A couple of saddos sitting on the couch playing lol.

I don't have an iphone

If you're on facebook we can play scrabble on there.

I am on FB. Not sure where scrabble is though. I'm friends with RBGif you want to add me. My name is like my user name with a Scottish surname.

Right I really need your advice ladies

The situation is - I have really noisy neighbours - their not bad people or anything the mum is alright we bought the house last year and to be honest the only thing I cannot stand is the noise.

Theres arguements out on the front especially with the girl (shes 18) and anyone that comes to the door. The girl is a bit nasty last year we were all in the garden and she was f'ing and blinding and her little brother said "keep it down theyve got their baby out next door" and she went "I dont give a fk this is my house ill do whatever the fk I want they can fk off" I did say something fairly loud to oh that I imagine she heard as she went in after that but I was still shocked at the blatent disregard.

Now theres ridiculously loud music all of the time.

I went round once - When ds1 had chickenpox and he couldnt sleep because of the racket I said to the mum outside that the music is quite loud on our side and has been waking ds1 up a lot and she was like "yeah im sorry I know its loud" and it did stop for a little while but now its got worse Its mainly when the mum isnt in the eldest boy (16) comes in and has his music so loud it vibrates our wall - it even knocked a picture off the wall!!

The dog is left outside all day and all it does is whinge and bark which unfortunately is right outside ds's bedroom window!

Im just getting a bit annoyed and worried that when the baby comes its gonna be woken up all of the time.

If we had money for the sol fee's we'd just move to be honest.

I dont want to start like a war with them so I dont know wether its a good idea to say anything again - It seems as though the mum doesnt hold much over the kids.

The boys room is a loft room thats obviously open plan - we were going to get a loft conversion but decided against it as we know the noise will just travel more.

*sigh* sorry for the uber long post guys I just dont knwo what to do Im so fed up of it I just wish people were a bit more considerate.

Do you think I should mention it to her again - I feel bad because people should be allowed to do whatever they want in their own house and it could be worse.

I had to have a temp filling, they drilled but didn't numb the area

Got to go back in August for a proper one

Poor you

Although I think I come under the category of weird as I'd rather have fillings without anasthetic than have an inejection. Certainly my dentist was surprised at my request.


All this talk about money reminds me, I must chase up my parking refund. The machine ate my £20 then denied I'd put anything in. Grrrrr. It meant that I didn't have enough to pay. I had to call for assistance and they took my details and said that the refund would be in the post. That was on 5th Jan, so they've had plenty of time.

owowowowow painful BH, going to go walk around for a bit to see if it eases

:(thanks everyone, been a weird day, funeral is a week Monday. My work have a policy where you only get compassionate leave for a blood relative or you have to do a shift swap/take holiday etc.

My manager will probs kick up a fuss, so I will just call in sick. I am not missing it.

Had a go at OH before, he was in work at 12 so I asked him at 11 how he was planning on getting to work. Aye, me:mad::mad: so had a go at him and said he was selfish etc. He was so apologetic but I still haven forgiven him.

I'm so tired

Why should you feel bad? Fair enough, they should be allowed freedom in their house but not if it's affecting you and your family. You should be allowed peace in your home too.

My cousin's neighbour was like this, always playing music etc. At first, they went round and talked to the neighbour politely. She was always quite nonchalant about everything and just carried on. I think your first course of action should be talking to your neighbour and just politely telling her that if the situation doesn't improve, you will take action. I know you might feel a bit mean but you have to let them know that it is an issue to you and that you are serious about it. By telling them that you will take further action if it cannot be sorted it may make them more aware of just how large an impact it is having on you.

If you don't want to do that, then just explain to your neighbour the problems you're experiencing (ie the loud music). She might be sympathetic if you explain your concerns?

It's quite worrying that the dog is always outside? Do you mean they shut it out or it chooses to stay out? And is it out there in all weather and at night or only in the day?

There's some more information regarding noisy neighbours on the directgov website here:

Hope this helps. Sorry, I'm not great with advice.

Annibee, I would call the RSPCA regarding the dog. My two dogs are my life, it breaks my heart to think of this one outside all day:(

That's why I was asking the questions. My mother was part of the group that set up a rescue and some of the dogs we had come through... it was heartbreaking.

both mine are rescue Pixie:o poor thing x

Yeah its tight because its got a tiny doghouse that isnt warm at all and when their all out at school/work then its just outside all day - the dog looks well though which is why I was a bit hesitant to report it - also we had to complain about other side neighbour as he has left his house to decay and its destroying our house now and becoming dangerous - so i just feel like im complaining about everyone and everything

I will mention it when I next see her just in conversation that although I appreciate that kids wanna play their music it is getting louder and causing some issues. If it continues then I might try to pull the kid up on it maybe embarrass him into not doing it.
