It's vibrating off the bloody walls FGS!

We've just gotten rid of the neighbours from hell on the other side. After 18 months of really really loud music into the early hours every night they moved out 6 weeks ago. It's been bliss.

Now our neighbours on the other side who have actually been here longer than us. They're complete snobs, never ever say hello or smile at us. It's a houseshare of 3 secondary school teachers one of whom teachers in DSD's 6th form. She never lets on to DSD completely ignores her in the corridor.

The other week I came home from picking dd2 up from nursery and saw their front door was wide open. None of their cars were there. (Yet another issue, they have 3 cars and always take up the spaces outside our house and theres, we have 1 car and always have to park over the road as they take all the spaces). I went and knocked, no answer, so I closed their front door (it's the type that has to be locked by a key). Then contacted DSD who was in 6th form to find out what the name of our neighbour who worked in her school was. Phoned the school and left a message that their front door was wide open and I wasn't sure if they had been burgled. The neighbour phoned me back half an our later to thank me and said her housemate was on his way home to check. Then later that day when I got home from picking dd1 up she popped out to thank me.

So all well and good I thought at least now they'll know we're not some scally family and say hello when they see us. Nope! Completely ignore us now. Honestly we've lived here for 2 years. They give the impression they're better than us, because well I don't know why. So what they're teachers and one happens to work in my DSD's school. DSD is a good girl if not a normal teenager. I've nothing against teachers btw my sister is one.

So tonight they're playing their music at supersonic levels. Not so bloody better than us now are they! I never play loud music bar the odd song every now and then if me and the dds are having a dance. I've just banged on the wall. I would go and knock but I'm pissed have just consumed a bottle of wine. That would just give them something else to hold against me. They know we've got kids (who keep stirring with the noise) yet still play the music really loud. The walls are paper thin (bloody new houses) so they know we'll be able to hear it.

Ah, I don't actually care if AIBU feel good after that rant.

Could be wrong, but is it legal to blast music after 11pm?

I think you'll find that teachers can now be nobbled, i.e. disciplined by the GTCE for misdemeanours which have nothing to do with the performance of their duty, and are committed in their private lives. As a teacher, I disapprove of this intensely, and regard the GTCE as little better than sniffers of little girls' bicycle seats, but it is useful to know.

This kind of thing usually covers being drunk in public, affray, etc.
