Hi,
Genuinely looking for people's opinions on this, please. Sorry, quite a long post.
We live in a semi-detached house, and our neighbours bought their house around 10 months ago. For the last 8 months they have been completely renovating it (and haven't been living there). In the early months this involved work every day (not sure of the hours as we were out at work), but a few times work has started before 8am and continued after 6pm. These times we have been round to complain (and had very offhand responses). The work has involved a huge amount of drilling, with a hammer drill, into our shared wall.
I am currently 39 weeks pregnant with 2nd DC and on maternity leave. This afternoon I was sitting in our living room and the drilling started again (incredibly loud, although only for about 20 mins on and off). I went round to ask how much longer it was likely to go on for (not just today, but if it would be another few weeks on and off). Our neighbour answered the door and proceeded to have a huge go at me for 'complaining again', saying that we have had work done too (our kitchen in the last few weeks but that's on the other side of the house and didn't really involve drilling) and that soon our new baby will be keeping them up.
Now feeling quite shaky and anxious as he was extremely aggressive and slammed the door in my face. AIBU to have gone round today?
Thanks
