Neighbours in the garden since the crack of dawn

[sherlock10]

talking at the tops of their voices. I have been aware of it since 5.30 am. It must be the continuation of a party that has gone on all night that they now feel is appropriate to take outside. A group of them all stood on their patio shouting post drunk inanities at each other.

WIBU to throw a bucket of water at them ?

Do it! Then report back!

I had exactly this problem in my old flat. The rich bastards next door would have parties frequently (was actually the owners kids having the parties...grown up kids though). They would start the music around 11, with a sound system like a pub, then if I got any sleep they’d wake me at 5/6 in the morning having full on loud conversations in their garden. Garden under my bedroom. They obviously gave zero shits as it was in a residential area in balham, so they could be heard by about 12 different people/families. People complained to them, they didn’t care. When I knew downstairs were awake, I would hoover/ open window with music as soon as possible. Connecting wall so I hoped the noise to increase their comedowns/hangovers.

ARGH You have my sympathy OP, even thinking about them has wound me up. Water, hose, etc, yes

What bloody wrong with people - go to bed ffs if you've been partying all night - yup ...water!!

This is when your newfound appreciation for sousaphone/marching band/opera/bagpipes or host a party with a bajillion four year old girls offering free unicorn rides then when they arrive cancel the unicorn so they all whine in unison..... or you could get all your neighbours involved with new anti-antisocial twat hobbies and inflict damage on the hungover yobs

We had his last night, still chatting loudly in the garden past 3am. It is always the same inconsiderate neighbours.

Start your party at 11am just as their hangovers kick in. I will lend you some teenage boys who love a loud kick around with football, and my very excitable pre teen DD and her friends

Yes I will do all those things .

Doesn't your toddler pool party start at noon OP? With a circus theme? The 'Big Top' tune at full blast would be such a great addition to the pool party 😉

Petrol lawnmower next to the fence followed by strimming and then a sprinkler!

This has given me a real check on my perspective on life.
I was thinking maybe they were watering their plants (not good to do it during the day in the heat) and talking about how amazing they were.

But it definitely is a good time to water plants - maybe accidentally spraying next door.

Now is the time for a noisy BBQ, preferably with music in the garden.

We get this from time to time from the big houses behind us. There's a valley between, which makes the noise echo. They specialize in Marquees and amplified music. Sometime fireworks. All for their darling's 'once in a life time party'. Which they have every year. We went round to complain once, but couldn't get past the bouncers. Bouncers!

I used to have neighbours like this, you have my sympathy.

I used to get up at 6am, just as they were turning their music off and settling down and I’d set the radio to the loudest heavy metal I could find and then leave it next to the wall for a few hours.

I also encouraged much banging from the DC and their new found love of wooden spoons and saucepans.

It didn’t take long for neighbours to get the hint and realise that yes, the walls are rather fucking thin aren’t they!

Had this with a new N. Turned the speakers round to the wall put on I'm a Barbie doll on loud and repeat and left for work at 8. Came home at 6 and switched it off. Only needed to do it twice

I wonder if you're in my street, was woken by the same thing at 6am. I've been tempted to do some very noisy gardening today.

My neighbours would do this until 9am - I'd put The Clash on full blast against their wall and leave for work. The fact other people do this too makes me feel better :)

Is it time to start hoovering ???? 👹

Dd plays trombone and she needs to practice so you are welcome to borrow her for a while .

Drum practice?

I always find these threads very weird.

When I'm sparked out after a heavy session of drinking and / or drugs, I am completely dead to the world. You could March a band through my bedroom and I doubt I'd flinch. And everyone I know is the same.

Just speak to them later on and tell them it was a bit much so could they please be more mindful in future.
