to want to bang on the wall?

I am. Completely and utterly unreasonable. I know this but for 90 minutes MsNextDoor and her new love have been slapping up against the adjoining wall screaming obscene sweet nothings at each other. I swear half of what she's screaming about is illegal. It's 11.30am fgs. They keep waking up the baby and DH's grandma's due here in 5 minutes. She doesn't need to hear "FUCK ME BACKWARDS AND QUICKLY" screeched through the wall does she? I swear to God my ornamental pig is vibrating.

Charming.

Got enough egg cartons to quickly insulate the wall?

Esta3GG · 23/11/2011 11:45

Play some music very loudly that is a passion killer.
Agadoo or something.

Bang on the wall shouting shut up you filthy whore Grin

AFuckingFestiveKnackeredWoman · 23/11/2011 11:45

Yes blast something god awful till they get the hint

BaronessBomburst · 23/11/2011 11:46

I'd shove a note through the door saying "You faked it." Grin

spatchcock · 23/11/2011 11:46

90 minutes? In the middle of the day? Is this her day job?

FreakoidOrganisoid · 23/11/2011 11:47

Nice Grin

Is dh's grandma slightly deaf?

Dirtydishesmakemesad · 23/11/2011 11:47

oh dear Grin our old neighbours used to be like this and i found it hard to keep a straight face saying hello the next day because they seems to the rest of the street like a realy average boring middle aged couple - in the nights i didnt even understand what she was asking of him sometimes, she seemd to enjoy it though Confused

Indith · 23/11/2011 11:48

Am I the only one slightly jealous of being able to indulge in a good, er, session in the middle of the day?

ShowOfHands · 23/11/2011 11:48

It's getting worse. They're giving each other ideas. FGS.

Indith btw, did you try and message me or something on FB the other day? Got a really garbled message from them which I swear mentioned you but dh has installed some new anti-virus thing and it goes nuts whenever any kind of IM service starts up.

I'm going to cry. I've been up most of the night and I'd hoped for a nap this morning.

I think we need a transcript Grin

ShowOfHands · 23/11/2011 11:50

She's self employed. All sorts of packages are delivered here, I sign for half of them. Maybe she's trialling something.

She IS faking. She must be. Nobody's that happy for that long. It's not natural.

I did. I was stuck in the loft with a sleeping dd and I was extremely bored and pestering anyone who was online Grin.

Can you abandon the boy to his great granny and put a pillow over your head for half an hour?

ShowOfHands · 23/11/2011 11:54

Sorry matey. Would have loved a catch up too. Great Granny does indeed take the boy for a couple of hours so that I can catch up on whatever I need to. Sleep usually and then housework. Today however she might have to assist me in some noise abatement.

I've got some nursery rhyme CDs. I'm going to see if the Hokey Cokey interrupts their rhythm.

ShowOfHands · 23/11/2011 11:55

And she's not deaf at all. She might be by the time lunch is ready.

Indith · 23/11/2011 11:57

The Hokey Cokey will just give them more ideas. You want a good version of the Ugly Duckling or How Much is That Dog with the quacks and barks to surprise them at crucial moments.

FrillyMilly · 23/11/2011 12:01

90 minutes!! In the morning!! On a Wednesday!!

larry5 · 23/11/2011 12:07

dd is at uni and the house she is living in this year has thin walls. She was able to hear everything from next door in her bedroom so she put a note through their door to tell them. They have stopped being so noisy but she has not been able to speak to them since!

ShowOfHands · 23/11/2011 12:08

Currently on 5 Little Monkeys. They're synchronising to the beat. Think they're nearly done judging by the rousing crescendo.

ShirleyKnot · 23/11/2011 12:10

Laughing really hard at the Hokey Cokey giving them idea. HA HA HA!!!

SaggyoldCHRISTMASHUMBUGcatpuss · 23/11/2011 12:13

My dear old Gran would have thought it was hysterical! She would have shouted advice at them through the wall!
Seriously though, im not sure what you can legally do, they are having sex in their own house!
I would probably record it, and then play it back really loudly and see if they notice! Grin

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 23/11/2011 12:17

When they're finished, give a rousing round of applause. Complete with cries of 'Bravo!' and whistling.

minouminou · 23/11/2011 12:23

How about Black Lace's "We're havin' a Gang-bang"?

SnowieBear · 23/11/2011 12:24

I second chickens advice, that's EXACTLY what I'd do Grin.

picnicbasketcase · 23/11/2011 12:31

I'd probably say 'Bloody show offs' in an unamused and loud voice through the wall at them. Or play some really discordant weird music at them. Bjork or Captain Beefheart.
