To be fucked off with my neighbours partying

[sparkofnaturesfire]

They moved in over the summer. We live in converted apartments over 3 buildings, mostly rented, not cheap.

When we moved in 4 years ago it was a naice building with young families, older couples and young professionals. Since the new shite factors took over as the old ones went into liquidation it's gone downhill and all the lovely people have moved out and they've move in all sorts.

It was like something from project x when the schools broke up. There's a single mum that lives with her 13 year old son, word on the street is she's a local drug dealer. She went away for the weekend leaving her son who then had in excess of 60 teens round on a Sunday afternoon that resulted in the police being called with police dogs etc. That was fun. The kids then terrorised the neighbourhood the rest of night running riot round the building into the small hours causing carnage.

But I digress. My new neighbours started partying right away, these parties lasted from Thursday nights to Monday mornings constantly throughout those days with music blaring the whole entire time. We thought the first time would be a one off, young couple excited to have their own place. The next weekend was the exact same except this time they had their patios door open and were talking loudly about where they could get their coke from and how waaaaasssssted man they were the previous week on all the E and Ket

I have a toddler and one on the way and cannot be fucked with this

We looked out our tenancy agreement and there's a section that outlines 2 strikes and you're out in terms of nuisance behaviour and being reported for this by neighbours etc.

We called the letting agency after the second weekend who were very helpful and basically said their behaviour was not on and they'd have a word. Granted it has calmed down since then. Music MUCH quieter (used to hear the songs word for word). Now it's this thud thud thud for hours on end. Usually from late afternoon to afternoon the next day. As the night goes on and into the early hours of the morning they seem to open the back window and we can hear their extremely loud conversations perfectly from our bed

We have been looking at moving but places we want are like gold dust round here and we've been looking for 2 years + for somewhere else. That's now on hold until after the baby comes and I'm back at work due to finances.

I don't feel it's loud enough anymore to warrant calling the police but I'm dreading this festive period especially as DP works late, unsociable hours so he's not around when it's happening.

I don't really want to inform the letting agents again in case it means they'll be evicted as it'll be the second time it's happened. Would feel bad if they got kicked out.

I'm just ranting as getting seriously pissed off with it and being pregnant and knackered with a toddler is not helping my mood.

The noise diary is a good idea. Will definitely start doing this.

Good advice from everyone, thanks!
