Suggestions on what to say to this inconsiderate arsehole

Neighbour we know to see, sits in his back garden some nights(lots of houses very close together) and gets drunk, sometimes singing along horrifically to the music or talking extremely loudly and obnoxiously on his phone and often keeps us and the neighbourhood dogs awake. As it approaches summer he does it more and more.

Right now, at this hour, he is using a handsaw to cut wood for the fire he has going. He has been doing this for the last 20 minutes. All the dogs around us are barking over the sound of the saw and I'm ready to cry.

I'm that fed up I half considered screaming in frustration out the window at him but then I'd be just as bad. I can get his number tomorrow.

I could understand if it was a party or gathering but its just him.

This happened last spring/summer too but I just let it go since lockdown had everyone so miserable.
I can't let it go on again this year without saying something.

Would you text or put a note through the door? What would you say? I cant think straight.

I'm not normally a complainer but AIBU to start?

Please help me figure out what to say other than "Shut the fuck up you inconsiderate arsehole" 😭

All suggestions welcome and appreciated .

Hes cutting wood at 0230?? Sod that I'd be phoning the council noise team or the police

Cutting wood at half two in the morning? Is he trying to dispose of a body?

Fuck decorum, I’d stick my head out and ask him to wise up. Your other neighbours will thank you!

The police here definitely wouldn't care about that. I'm in Ireland.
I think he owns the home and not renting if that makes a difference on who would care/has the power to do anything?

Fucking sawing wood at 2am 😭

Yeah I sort of wish I had now!

The sawing has stopped and its just the crackling of the fire and him poking around at it now🙄
