AIBU to ask who does DIY on Boxing Day?

[RoseRedder]

Started and 9.30am

Someone is hammering and drilling (they are a youngish couple without children so it's not like they are assemebling a present)

BANG BANG BANG DRRRRRRRR BANG BANG BANG DRRRRR

I know it's not a Sunday morning but surely this is inconsiderate?

Would I be unreasonable to knock on their door and ask them to stop?

He's been arrested.

Police have taken him in a car

The girl won't come into mine, she says she wants to be left alone

She opened the door and I can he's made a real mess of the place, there's holes in the walls in the hallway

How can I help her? I don't want to interfere but what should I be doing

Aw, you've already offered help so she knows you're next door/upstairs/downstairs if she wants to take you up on your offer.

Maybe give her half an hour/or hour and then perhaps pop round again and try to persuade her to come back to yours for something to eat?

to Rose

I meant, with the excuse of offering her lunch - but also some moral support.

Poor girl must be terrified. He will be on bail tomorrow. With a condition of bail being he does not come back to the house

Just caught up.
I hope she has the support of her parents.

You don't have to get all intimate with her. She must have a lot to process, but you can give her the contacts for agencies that help women: WA, NCDV, etc.

Be prepared for the possibility of him returning and she taking him back.
