Got new neighbours downstairs from my flat a couple of months ago. Apparently it is two lads. They've been totally fine most of the time, got no complaints about music or anything. All good.
I can hear them moving about and I'm sure they can hear me, no probs about that but in the last month or so one of them has started slamming and banging doors shut, usually once or twice really loudly, about half an hour after I go to bed. I know that sounds weird but it really is the same time lag every time it happens, no matter what time I go. I have bought earplugs and moved my bed around away from the (partition) walls, but the shudder it makes still wakes me up and it's really annoying.
Last night someone was pacing up and down the long corridor of their apartment, and in and out of rooms, literally all night; they have heavy footfalls and it makes the room above (in my flat) shake, and I actually shake in my bed. Every other minute for a minute or so...ALL night. Couldn't sleep till half three, went into other rooms and same there as they go up and down, woke up at half four and still happening, still going on now.
They also have a punchbag (apparently) which they punch hell out of for ten mins now and again, which makes everythign in the flat shake really loudly.
It seems a really small thing to contact about but both these are bothering me and I really do need to sleep, also have a health condition triggered by lack of sleep.
Should I bother sending a polite note, or get over it? Also, what the hell are they doing (just being nosey now)???
