How soon is too soon to approach new neighbour?

[VixxFace]

I live in a small black of 6 flats. A new neighbour moved opposite my flat and the first I knew of it was when she knocked on the door and asked did we have WiFi and a password she could use? (He said no sorry).

The first night she brought her belongings with her friends using asda trolleys which are still outside the front of the flats.

She has been very loud and I can hear her as she paces outside her front door and the front swearing and screaming.

Last night she was in the garden with her friend shouting for a neighbours cat. They came in and out slamming the door many times. Then her and her friend had an argument. Cue her friend screaming and crying running up and down the stairs . This was at 11pm.

I want to say something to her, because she's annoying me already but the main reason is 3 of the flats are occupied by elderly people. The lady at the bottom unfortunately is in the last stages of cancer and it's not fair for her to be having the door slammed right next to her bedroom.

What would you do if anything?

These feral types don't respond to reason or sad stories about cancer either. They're generally lacking in conscience and have low IQs which is a very bad combination.

That is a disgusting thing to say. What if this person isn't like that? Treating them as scum without humanity is only going to make it worse.

If this young woman is childless (?) in a council flat it's extremely likely she has mental health issues (due to scarcity/prioritising of social housing.) Is she actually able to control it when she gets overwhelmed and angry? Has she been given a chance to feel welcome and be made aware about ill neighbour? Has anyone in her life ever taught her the value of community and consideration?

limitedperiodearlier what was wrong with me mentioning the trolleys out the front?

I am just explaining all the things that have pissed me off.

I've come up the stairs and her stinking black bags are all in the hall way.

It's time for a group hug.

Asda is a trigger word for wind-ups on here OP.

But I understand that you're not on that so that's why the majority of my reply was sympathetic and practical.

I lived opposite people who left huge rubbish bags filled with fetid food debris on the landing.

And they weren't even black. So you'd not even get the angry buzzing of bluebottles. You'd see them and the maggots.

It stank and much as we hated them, we had to hump it down two flights of stairs or get typhus.

Take pictures. Keep a diary. Report them. Report them again. And again. It will unfortunately take time.

You really do have my sympathy.

And they weren't even black

I mean the bags. Not the people, in case any one is wondering.

Vixx - bags in hallway - That is grim

and a health hazard surely? You should report that separately to the waste disposal team at your council.

I hope you get this sorted. Keep us updated, I feel for you Neighbours like that are such a mare.

I would go straight to the council and not attempt to raise any issues with her. You do not want to fall out with her.
I've worked with young people (18-25) being placed in council properties and would definitely expect her to be on a probationary period.
