To ban wind chimes

My neighbours bought pan pipey wind chimes earlier this year and on this windy day, sitting in my house with the window open I can hear that they have now bought us all (the neighbours) the more conventional wind-f'ing-chimes. It frustrates me because it is constant (unlike a noisy party). Do they think that we can't hear or that we all love the toot-te-toot?

@PermanentTemporary Not as twattish as the neighbours who let random kids disturb us with a football all year round

I don't mind them but would happily support a ban anywhere they can be heard by other people. I have a friend who was driven almost mad by her neighbours' chimes, and I simply don't understand why people who like them would keep them up a nanosecond after understanding that not everyone feels the same. But they do, because far too many people are twats.

Well we have a rifle range in the garden so I guess I can't complain.

Both us and next door have wind chimes. I love them. We put up with enough so let the chimes ring out

Wind chimes don't bother me.

Are people on mumsnet really representative of society? Are people really as grumpy about everything their neighbours do as they seem on here?
