It's a lovely sunny day. Let's be selfish and ruin it for the neighbours!

Why oh why do they do it? I've finished work and want to relax, but instead have to put up with someone on the street blasting out music with a heavy bass beat. So I have to keep my windows shut but can still hear it while trying to listen to the TV. 😫

I've given up trying to ask them to lower the volume. They like it loud and everyone around needs to accept it it seems. Which so many others seem to do and therefore the neighbours think it's alright for them to carry on as they wish as its only one person sticking their neck out to complain.

Is this why 'society' is slowly dying as unsocial behaviour is ignored by so many and becomes normalised?

I can't really get annoyed about mowing and strimming. It has to be done when it's dry and there's been so much rain this summer my back garden has been like a meadow in between cuts. Neighbours are always quick to complain if you dont keep your garden tidy. I also think children being loud in paddling pools, making normal child noises in gardens is reasonably acceptable. They've had a really wet summer holiday, i think a few days of enjoying the sun in the garden is fair enough. I agree with you about loud music, anything amplified and anything between 9pm and 7am.

You report it as described above. You asked once nicely, that is enough.

And you never vote (or vote again) for a political party that cuts police numbers and does not support the justice system.

I am not even a Conservative voters- never have and never will - but the police did not deal with statutory noise nuisance even under the previous government - it has been EH under the council for yonks.
