I currently have a 15 year old boy on the other side of my party wall, blasting music.

Would it be unreasonable when I need to get up at 07:15 to play Slipknot on my Alexa on the same party wall?

You would be better of choosing something like Beethoven’s 5th…. Preferably on repeat.

Justmuddlingalong · 30/10/2022 00:09

Yes. That would be totally unreasonable.
As the clocks go back an hour tonight, you'll have to be up at 6.15am to make it count.

@Justmuddlingalong thats a very good point!!

MrsMoastyToasty · 30/10/2022 00:13

You need bagpipes. Bagpipes played badly. Bagpipes played badly , on repeat.

He might enjoy SlipKnot too much.

What you need is Barry Manilow or Des O'Connor.

(I like Barry and Des before anyone jumps on me, but I don't think they're down with the kids).

@Justmuddlingalong and @Alphabet1spaghetti2 - the clocks do go back tonight, but that means if the OP needs to get up at 7:15, it would have been 8:15, so happily, we all get an extra hour tonight, not less!

Alphabet1spaghetti2 · 30/10/2022 08:20

@BetsyBigNose oh yes. - I am so confused- as the clocks have gone back, work has asked us all to come in earlier for the next six months so we have more daylight hours. So it doesn’t feel like I get that extra! Added to that both Dh and mused have altered the clocks….

ThreeblackCats · 30/10/2022 08:24

Yes, totally reasonable. Also slam all doors frequently and loudly!

ChristmasCakeAndStilton · 30/10/2022 08:26

What about playing BabyShark, and going out for a couple of hours?

Agadoo on repeat before you go out

user1471538283 · 30/10/2022 08:33

Yes but something he will hate! Then go to work leaving it on.

Put on pinky and perky tie a yellow ribbon, followed by I'm a pink tooth brush you're a blue tooth brush on full volume, repeat, and go out ...
