Neighbours having a hissy fight right under my bedroom window. I can hear everything.

My window is old and if I go and close it properly they'll hear the bang.

I can't go sleep elsewhere.

your window, up to you if you close it... they know you can hear them.

Non issue.

Close it! They might get the hint that they could be having their argument elsewhere.

Shout "shut the fuck up" then slam it Grin

Turn bedroom light on if it's off. Make a point of looking about outside, squinting into the darkness. Close window. Grin

Lol Grin sorry this has just tickled me. I'm just imagining you standing there quaking, trying to decide what to do. To close or not to close?!

Seriously, close it. Who cares if they hear you. They should have a bit more consideration.

It is ok for them to hear the bang you know, it's them that's causing the problem! But they might be so engrossed in their arguing they don't notice, or if they do they won't care. They're unlikely to say anything to you, they'll probably be embarrassed.

Oh yes, make sure they hear the bang.
I do that when my neighbours decide to have long conversations on their doorstep at 3am.

Let them hear the bang from the window then they might realise how loud they are

Playduh · 02/05/2016 22:23

Well she's lovely and I don't want any embarrassment when I see her. If DH was here I could get him to do it. (He's the kind of bloke who wouldn't notice a fight if it was going on in our kitchen).

Anyway, one of them has driven off so I can close my window now - night night!

Grin Glad it's resolved itself. Night night!

Oysterbabe · 02/05/2016 22:27

I wouldn't have closed it, it'd make it harder to hear them Grin

TondelayaDellaVentamiglia · 02/05/2016 22:28

what were they rowing about?

I'd have enjoyed earwigging :)
