am I being an old bag?

[sara3]

I got in from work at about 6.30pm, and could hear music in my (empty) house. after a thorough search I realised it was coming from the house next door. I tried to ignore it but after half an hour of the music being louder than my tv, I knocked on the door and asked very nicely if it could be turned down a little bit. the man said he couldn't hear it but it must be his daughter upstairs.

about half an hour ago I actually banged on the wall! it stopped for about 10 minutes.. and started again.

I know it's not late but I'd really like to unwind, and I'm feeling very wound up! I was thinking about putting some music on and really blasting it.. but I really just want some peace.

advice please.....

turn your TV up, work out which room the duaghter is in, then wait.

get up at 6, put a stereo against the wall and then turn it up full

Finally, go out for a few hours

knock on the door

ask them politely to turn it down

if they refuse, hit them with a very large stick

problem solved

If you're being an old bag, then I'm one too. The last place I stayed at the neighbour oklayed loud music all evening and well into the night and it ****** me off like you wouldn't believe.

She used to play the same blimin song over and over....needless to say I can't stand Crazy Chick by Charlotte Church.

[cazzz1975]

well if they always play loud music then I would get my bulldog face on, If its just a one off I would cut them some slack

Awww sis :( Well if it was that loud then I don't blame you!

We used to that a similar problem with our former neighbour, I don't know how he could bear to be in his flat as you could hear it through the wall, bedroom wall, lounge wall in the lounge!

I was having a grumpy moment on a bus the other night with some yoof sat behind me one side with his "noise" (hold old do I feel saying that!) blaring and the side side had some of the local youth offenders effing and blinding and going on about what they'd been done for....argh!

[sara3]

to be fair, it doesn't happen often.. it's just been a long week and it's getting RIGHT ON MY NERVES!

the daughter sleeps on the other side of the house, but I reckon it's his girlfriend playing the music.

I quite like the large stick theory! I have to pick my daughter up in an hour so could leave some loud music on while I'm out...

[redcrx]

there you go, leave your music on and go out in a bit.

make sure its one really naff song and on repeat

[sara3]

thanks for the armchair knobby.. sometimes you really surpass yourself ;o)

[sara3]

red, I don't have "naff" music!

well, I probably do really!

[Lakitu]

I can recommend Crazy Chick by Charlotte Church! LOL

[redcrx]

no matter how many albums you own there is always something hidden on one of them that is naff.

[Panic Button]

I really hate that song!!!

[sara3]

I don't have any Charlotte Church!!!!

oh, listen... it's gone quiet!

[Lakitu]

Me too!

[Eve]

I saw download Steps on MP3 or that Same Difference...

[Prudentia]

contact your local council, they will sort it out

[Eve]

Nah, yoof kept his toof lol :)

Ooh, if she's a right girly type I recommend a bit of RSTM - Killing in the Name Of, or a bit of 9 Inch Nails or similar.

[sara3]

she's 17. surely I need to blast Guns n Roses or Nirvana. she might like the girlie stuff (I'd say she does judging by what I can hear!).
