be playing sectarian songs in their garden, at full volume and singing along?

Now the loud music is bad enough, but I can tolerate that, it's a nice summer's evening after all, and they're having a barbecue.

I do however object to the subject matter however, songs that are intended to incite hatred as far as I'm concerned.

And this part is none of my business I know but they have young children with them, and are enouraging them to sing along too. Which I find rather sickening.

I suppose there's little I can do about it though.

could always use the hose to water the garden and dc could perhaps lose control and poke it over the fence?
Maybe?

you can phone the police, they would be very responsive.
might just be better to pop round and ask them to turn it down.

I'm tempted to call the police. These aren't the sort of neighbours one can reason with.

Would the police give them a call for you do you think?

Music system is outside too. I am tempted to accidentally on purpose give it a good soaking.

LOL. I'm not convinced that'd be much of an improvement, but if it drives them away then please do.

Wonderful.

I'm tired of this hot weather anyway. Perhaps I should go out and do a rain dance to help it along?

I grew up with Irish Republican music. I don't think playing it makes someone a 'scumbag' although I appreciate that it's pretty insensitive to blare it out loudly to all of your neighbours.
