Neighbors fucking windchimes

[Wellthisunexpected]

Our neighbors (not friendly, very stand offish & not for considering others but keep themselves to themselves) have a set of huge windchimes in one other the trees. Their garden backs on to the side of our house and the windchimes can be heard with any window open.

I know I abu, it's their garden to do with as they wish BUT the incessant tinkly clanging is driving me fucking bonkers!

Worst thing is, mine aren’t even neighbours on my street. It another street whose gardens back onto ours so I can hear them but have no idea which selfish bastard owns them so I can go round and play loud music under their bedroom window 24/7. See how they like intrusive noise.

I may have obsessed about this a tiny bit...

I would be asking them to take them down. Or just sabotage them.

Why do people think it is ok to inflict their noise on others?

If you must buy mystical magical spiritual hippy shit on your holiday in Frome or Glastonbury or Lyme Regis or Matlock Bath get a dream catcher or a small pewter goblin, and take your neighbours some fudge. Not a summer of irritation!

To quote Rebecca rabbit ‘cut the tree down!’

Or just reach over with a ridiculously long pair of shears in the dark and cut the fuckers down

Windchimes are the worst. So fucking rude and inconsiderate to put these up where others can hear the incessant noise.

I remember sweating in bed one summer because we had to keep the window closed as the racket from a nearby set of chimes was impossible to sleep through.

I was thinking about a set as they'd go some way to covering up my tinnitus in my breezy garden. Maybe I'll try a water feature instead. Though not one like our Men's which used to sound like a horse pissing in a pond.

NDN not men's.

8 acres away? That makes no sense, not even on Mumsnet.
Acres are measures of area not distance.

It doesn't matter if your windchimes are/are not nice and twinkly, or if they are well made, made of bamboo or have a brand name like Woodstock.

None wants to listen to them!! I guarantee you (unless you live out of earshot of any other houses) they are irritating someone, probably at night. Take them down, stop being so selfish and stop annoying your neighbours.

UpstartCrow that made me !

Bloody selfish people that hang these things up in gardens, put them inside if you want to hear them all day, it’s madness to inflict them on others

Just popping back to laugh at the idea of wrapping sellotape around them .

I might send ninja DC4 over the fence in the early hours with a roll to work some magic. Just visualising their faces when they come across their mummified wind chimes is making me feel SO much better.

I like wind chimes. Our neighbour has them, and her two grandchildren don’t screech and yell in the garden either, so I can actually hear them.
I do loop my chimes up at night though.

I do not like these tinkly chimes
I do not like these noisy times
I do not like them made of wood
I do not like them in a tree
I do not like them after tea.
I do not like them in the night
I do not like them in the day
I do not like them, Scrubs I am!

I put cello tape on the ones my colleague has up in the office. If she's noticed she hasn't said anything. I just think they are really selfish.

I had same deal,sweet elderley lady but chimes so annoying i culdve cut the strings or used insulating tape on the bastad thing-then she asked me to feed cats for a week wen she went away so i took her ginormous&hideously loud chimes down-shoved it in bottom of her decrepid shed..i did plan to put it back up but forgot&she thought someone stole it(lol)..this was a year ago &hasnt got a new 1yet thank f@%k😂
