AIBU?

I have a young family on one side who seem to wake up about 6.30 every day, then run round shrieking and banging - they have wooden floors and it really echoes, invariably waking me up. It's bearable during the week, but it's getting really annoying at weekends as I have a long commute, a busy job and I so value my lie-ins. Ear plugs don't block out the noise.

Now I discover a single dad will be moving in the other side with a baby and a toddler. It's an Edwardian Terrace and the walls are really thin - I could hear my previous neighbours coughing!

Should I confront the neighbours on the other side? Am I right to rather dread what might happen noise-wise on the other?

I have a real, real issue unfortunatley with noise and had a bad expereince with very noisy neighbours years ago.

AIBU? What should I do?

Could you try sound-proofing, maybe a bit pricey, but it could save your sanity.
