FFS here we go again! Neighbours

I agree with you OP, I think you're getting a slating cos of all the council house nonsense you worded around the point you were trying to make. I think the first bit of sunshine makes us all go a bit mental, I've been out today, everyone going mad for barbecue stuff etc.😂 Absolutely hate basketball noise, and loud music, I live in a mid terrace and am currently amidst all of this, plus a jet washer🤦noise cancelling earphones are my salvation. I did enjoy a quiet coffee this morning though lol, I put on bird noises and pretend I live in MN fabled house in the middle of nowhere it's the closest I'll get FFS😂

People over the back to me had their jet washer on all day on Saturday when it was nice , dogs barking , kids shouting.
I feel your pain op, but people are just like this and don't care much about the neighborhood or keeping the noise down.

Well they certainly shouldn't be doing that if you've got a high mortgage, have you told them?

Maybe do a leaflet drop to advise them?

Or move to a rough council estate, then you'd expect what you've got where you are, but think it was justified.

Jet washing isn't going to happen every day I assume.

I bought a house with a garden for my children to play in, they're entitled too.

So why did you mention council estates in your op?

A lot of people automatically become arseholes when the warm weather starts. Inconsiderate cunts 😡

I don't think it's normal at all to be having bonfires in a residential area. And I grew up on a rough council estate where people were forever having bonfires and generally being antisocial so I know what you're saying OP and won’t rush to be offended! 😅

OP - AIBU

MN - Yes it’s part of living on an estate…

OP- I am not being Unreasonable, and digs herself into a hole trying to sway others opinions 🤯

No, fair point about the jet washer and children , but when I was young my parents made me keep the noise down ! I don't mind the children really , but the dogs get me down a bit.
Maybe it's an age thing too , more things bother you.

We live in a naice area and if someone played music in their garden the police would be called pronto.

You can't get police to attend for burglary!

If the fires are causing a smoke disturbance then you need to report it to your local council.

Kids playing with balls - Perfectly normal.

Dogs barking - Annoying, but the only way to combat it, is by speaking to the owners to see if they can train it.

Blaring music - Also annoying, but again, the only way to combat it, is by speaking to your neighbours and asking them to turn it down.

Complaining on MN and bashing council estates isn’t going to get you anywhere. Noise when you have neighbours is inevitable. You can’t expect complete silence day in day out.

You're the problem I'm afraid. Sounds like everyday noise and people enjoying their garden.

This must be your neighbour unfortunately. People need to have respect for others regarding the noise they make. The constant bounce of a basketball, screaming on a trampoline and loud music played outside is totally inconsiderate. As is the constant barking of dogs left outside.

For them to laugh at the person calling?

I must be doing outside wrong… I can’t say I’ve ever had this problem with noise. Have all that you mentioned around me.

I think the closest I been to irritated was when the neighbors had someone working their house… power tools-fine, radio-fine, whistling random notes that weren’t actually a song or tune-that one annoyed me a bit. Because really who whistles just random ass notes that don’t belong next each other?!

My only laugh out of was when I was chatting with the neighbors having the work done I joked about it. They both visibly cringed and agreed it was awful but the guy did good work so they put up with it. I laughed and told them that at least they suffered too.
