We've not had much luck where we live. Moved in 3 years ago. One side lived in their bedroom so had to put up with full blown conversations and loud tv every night for 2 years and then 10 months after us moving in a young couple moved into the other side and within a week the parties began..every other night without fail weeknights and weekends..we never said a word and then it reached a point last year where the party went on till 5.40am and we reported it to the council..I'm not talking small gatherings that ended at midnight. I'm talking a house full, loud music, violence etc from 9.30pm till the sun was ready to rise and this went on for a year..The council had a word, they filled them full of lies and I felt we weren't taken seriously. They did calm down some what, the other side were evicted for none payment of rent so I finally thought we'd found a bit of peace but recently we've noticed loud music creeping back in, friends round again etc and so my anxiety levels have crept up, on top of that I'm worried about the new neighbour we will be getting on the other side and I'm now looking for advice on how people cope? Anyone else dealing with noisy neighbours? We have a young child too so most of my worry is about how it affects her when she's woken up by it and how it affects my mood as a mum when I'm absolutely nackered from lack of sleep and stress..anyone got any good tips? I'm currently sat shaking after knocking on their door for the very first time in 2 years and asking them to turn the music down as I was trying to get my little girl to sleep only to be met with "well it's not late" and "we've only just turned the music on and you come round" (it had been on at this point for nearly 2 and a half hours)..I'm at the end of my tether. After all the rubbish they've put us through an apology and turning the music down would have sufficed..there was no need for it to become argumentative..help pls. Anyone?
