Next door but one very noisy game in the game but at 8pm

[Londonrach1]

Every night night door but one has a game...until at least 9pm...of throwing plastic dishes into a metal thing..tbh looks like a large bbq from window but hitting the chains it's really noisy..dd sleeps right by that side..it honestly is vvvv noisy...they nice people but young but no children...it's before the 10pm you expect for quiet and they great normally but just when dd goes to sleep...I know I'm.being unreasonable to ask as it's not late..it be ok if they started playing at 9pm...once she asleep she asleep but starting right at bedtime is awful timing...help...what do I say

You just go and knock and say that's a really loud game what is it? Can you make it any quieter? I have young children who go to bed at 8am and you're keeping them awake. Can we find a compromise? Just have a normal chat about it.

How long has this being going on for?

Days? Weeks? Months?

Is it definitely a ‘game’? As it sounds really strange.

Well first of all you put a smile on your face, because you catch more flies with honey. Go round, knock on the door and explain the situation. Then depending on their reasonableness and response they either say sorry, they didn’t realise how noisy it was and stop, or they don’t stop and you escalate to your local council, after keeping a noise diary for a couple of weeks so you have some evidence to show them.

A lot of people are thoughtless, but most are reasonable, let’s hope yours turn out to be this.

actually costco is selling it at the moment... no idea what its called, but i think its like a frisbee and the aim is to get it into the net..

How long has this been going on?

As others have suggested you go round and nicely explain and ask if they can play something a little less noisy.

just ask politely, with a smile

Thanks...after an hour they gone in... going to put smile on face and talk to them tomorrow...it's a plastic plate into a metal thing with chains on it...it's been a few days and after they come home... normal get dd down before but today with England playing and the hot weather it's not been easy and tbh dd wanted to join in the game ...she asleep now. I'll talk to them tomorrow. . hopefully she can make school After this. She young school child...

This is disc golf

Are you my neighbour?

These are disc golf baskets

Sounds like one of these might be a good idea

That's it...tbh it looks fun and if not between 8-9 I'll be front of the queue to try it...I'll talk to them tomorrow..sorry tried mummy who been in hot car doing home visits and having hot child who refused to sleep due to noise and normally amazing daddy who we share bedtime with but first time in 4 years asked if could watch England game which I agreed as he covered me when I gone to craft groups...just didn't expect the noisy plates into metal outside bedroom window

8-9pm isn’t that late, it’s their garden but if it’s that big a deal just go and speak to them.

I totally understand OP, i know that sound and I can totally accept that it could be disruptive/annoying 🙉

I'm quite wary of the noise ours makes, I prefer for us not to use it for too long at a time and at a more acceptable hour, but still I worry how it sounds to our neighbours. I keep meaning to but a silencer, and your post has reminded me to do that.

(I'm noting your username and making an assumption about your location) if you are in the croydon area theres a cracking disc golf course in Lloyd Park

Hope your chat goes well!

Yes speak to them. As long as you're prepared to never allow your child in the garden at silly o'clock in the morning, or scream in the garden all evening or have a squeaky trampoline or play anything so noisy it inconveniences any of your neighbours op.
