Well am I?

[MadameCastafiore]

being unreasonable to go and get the biggest pair of shears we have from the garage - go next door through the hole in the wall that he hasn't fixed (am hoping he will when our dog jumps through and shits on his lawn!) and cut the fucking wind chime down - snip it into small, sharp pieces and insert them one by one up next door neighbours very very tight arse?

Breath!

I cant hear mine from inside my house and its visible at the window. I am not sure that anyone can hear it unless they are outside and its flippen freezing.

I am probably really annoying the birds, squirrels, rats etc.

We had one of those big wooden ones. It was DPs and I was not keen. Neighbour came round and asked us to remove it because of noise and I was thrilled to do so. Go round you may be the excuse his partner is praying for.
DP was heavily into windchimes and various hanging ornaments. Before we lived together he had masses up in his room. Cured him of that little foible now

If you like them so much put them INSIDE your house and train a fan on them or something. No-one else wants to hear them. Honestly.

Ah I may take mine down.

They are the work of the devil.

My neighbour's windchimes drove me batty, I was going to complain but DH was chatting to him one day and the neighbour was really proud of them as he'd made them himself. I didn't have the heart to after that.

The house was up for sale anyway so I knew they'd be going anyway.

We used to have the window open a tiny bit at night and the bloody tinkling drove us nuts,

I like them. I don't have any up but I find them relaxing.

And surely (unless you live in a rural village) the traffic noise would disturb you more than a tiny windchime noise? I'm amazed that people with kids are so worried about such a small noise tbh. Windchimes sound lovely and aren't they there as a culture too?

Lol at the culture of windchimes. I'm imagining a whole community of discarded windchimes living in a commune with their own shared language of tinkling and customs of swaying gently in the breeze or more noisily in a storm, being misunderstood in their philosophy of bringing peace to the world. I wonder what the windchimes typical diet is like
Sorry Jodie I'm just being facetious an idiot. I know what you mean

Jodie I do live in a rural village and there is traffic noise - its in the middle of the night when they are bloody tinkling away that I want to go and shove them up his arse!

NO NO NO!!!
Don't cut them down!!!!!
Go out and cover each bit in bubblewrap

No one has to put up with wind chimes if they are disturbed by them. I asked a neighbour to take hers down the minute she put them up. She was angry but did it. Many of us have enough unavoidable noise around without the supplementary racket as well. One thing I don't understand is people who are not bothered by a certain noise nuisance or don't have them around them, telling others who are bothered or who do have them around them, that they shouldn't be bothered. If you are not affected, then don't tell others how they should respond. Simples.

It's one of those me, me, me things, isn't it? I like them, so SURELY everyone else will find them enchanting too? NO NO NO! INCREDIBLY irritating. Chop away Madame...
