    Ahh. Not "summer nights, shoobee-doop" summer nights, then? :D Who needs the top floor when you can listen to recorded rain with complementary crickets thrown in?

    Wishing you the best of luck, JessyRM. At least you have the option to move...

    But it's not flooding vs noise. It's flooding PLUS noise. Seeing the integrity of your home being ruined and regularly trying to get large sums of money from your neighbours to fix something that doesn't affect them. No thanks.

    I thought you were meaning the sound of the rain of the roof.

    Still I would take that over stomping.

    of course, at least with the top floor you miss out of the stomping, and if they also have laminate flooring, the top floor would be preferable.

    Cloo, just checked out your link... If I posted what I think should happen to people like that, I think my posting privileges might be withdrawn :mad: To give you but a hint, it starts with crucifixion...
