To throw a dart at the hot tub?

[Mylittlesandwich]

NDN's have hired a hot tub for the weekend (something they do semi regularly during the summer). It's only 10 past 7 on day 2 and I'm over it.

Considering an act of sabotage but in fairness the hot tub isn't the actual issue. It's the loud dance music and talking late into the night that is the actual issue.

Previous attempts to politely request a reduced noise level (after midnight) have been met with open hostility and ridicule.

Green or orange dye? 👹🤭

You need a song called Ievan Polka (its on youtube) played at full belt for several hours. The house next door used to be rented out to students. After one student party too many when I was heavily pregnant that went on until daybreak I snapped. Stuck this on repeat, speakers to the wall and took dd to my mums for the day. Yes, the students knew I was both pregnant and had a small child and they didn't seem to give a shit.

Came back to a box of chocolates on my doorstep and next door neighbours who were almost deathly quiet after 11pm from then on
.

I'm inclined to the tasteless so-called music at loud volume. That stops at 10.59pm. Or starts at 7.01am tomorrow morning.

One of my friends once put some fairy liquid in one of the fountains in Trafalgar Square.

Stop being so uptight and get your own hot tub. You never know, you might have some 🙊 fun

The purchase of a Gregorian Chant CD and a quick google as to which Christian Saint is celebrated on any given day should do the trick.

1. Put CD at suitable volume in back garden
2. Google Saints remembered today
3. Wait for NDN to complain
4. Respond as follows: " Today is a celebration of the life of St xxxx. I am sure you wouldn't want to interfere with the practice of my religion".

Today, for example is the commemoration of the life of St. Peter of Tarantaise ( a 12th century French Archbishop).

Yes, I am a Catholic (actually v religious)
Yes. I have successfully done this (several times with one neighbour)
Yes. I am very vindictive when I get sleep deprived

The alternative is a CD of bagpipe music, loudly on repeat......

Oh come off it I'm the life and soul of the party, at home alone (aside from a sleeping toddler) on a Saturday night, playing animal crossing and eating a chocolate orange. I can't imagine anyone more wild than me.

If I heard the bag pipes being played at 7 am on a Sunday morning very loud I would be putting my house on the market the very next day.
More reasons not to own an annoying hot tub and upset the neighbours lol

I feel you OP but if they do just hire it for a weekend at a time, I would suck it up. Three days every now and again I could accept.

Once they've done throw a handful of birdseed onto it . Tomorow it will be gloriously splattered .
And they cannot blame you !

I was going to suggest ‘Singalonga Max’, the best of Max Bygraves, full blast, on a loop for hours, but I think I’ve been pipped by the Gregorian chanting and Ieven Polkka.

The gravy granules is bloody genius too.

You’re 100% justified and SO NBU to spoil their fun. The pricks.

DH suggests you throw a condom filled with egg white into it
🤮

I love the gravy granules suggestion!

If the hot tub is near the fence, maybe an open bag of smelly scraps (2- or 3-day old chicken trimmings?) surreptitiously place next to the fence...

How about tipping in some yellow food colouring then it’ll look like someone has had a giant wee in it 😁.

Just make sure they don't have cameras out back whatever you do.
@3Britnee are you the neighbour?

@MrMucker

Chuck in a plastic fake turd before they have the chance to get in.

This

Your saving grace is that it’s been hired for the weekend and is not a permanent fixture! Hot tubs are not my thing but I don’t have a issue with them exactly, it’s just the loud voices and screeching that seems to apply the minute someone steps in. I’d hate it too OP, I’d get an early start in tomorrow and get something annoying played on repeat ‘hold a chicken in the air, stick a deckchair up your nose’ an old spitting image tune!

Nope, I'm wilder than the neighbour and op put together. In bed on mn by 9.30 on a Saturday night 😂

@Verbena87

Folk music from all your windows. Bonus points if it’s accordion based.

I salute you!

Don't do anything, just wait...you'll get your chance

Why plastic?

Chuck a real one in.

What is a hot tub party do people invite other people over to get in with them?

Mine have a Woodburning hot tub they light every sunny afternoon. It renders my garden unusable as its right by the border .
Inspired by this thread I'm going to put a speaker playing awful music by their fence when they light it- all the other neighbours will think it's them and that should increase the complaints coming in .

Turmeric powder accidentally tipped over the fence into the sex,pond?

Chuck a big lump of potassium in OP
