Angry Met the new neighbours

And what a delight they are :scared: Mid 60's and they like to use their tennis court, at 6 AM EVERY MORNING, and guess what in winter its dark so they use FLOODLIGHTS :scared:

R reckons the womans probably one of those grunters too, you know like in wimbledon when they whack the ball they grunt or scream.

Never mind we will retaliate, easy enough to rustle up 12 pre teens who like to stay up till 3 am at sleepovers and who are keen to learn driving skills on the ride on mower and ute

Nasty. maybe they'll get frost bite and give it up I'm sure the teenagers will annoy them far more than the tennis does you. Are you sure the grunting is from tennis

You don't have to have just teenagers up until 3 am. You should meet our neighbours. They rent as well. I would say that they are in their late 40's and every Friday and Saturday they have friends round. This Saturday at midnight the heavy metal started at full volume until 2.30 am. It wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't had been so unwell. Hubbie was away and called him about 1.00 to get some sanity and he asked me to turn the music down as he couldn't hear me!!! :scared:

Ewwww. Old sex is gross. *starts chanting* I will never get old, I will never get old, I will never...

Now, where did I leave that fountain of youth?

Hey! How about YOU start making all sorts of your own grunting and groaning noises when they come out to play? Maybe they'll get embarrassed and decide that they can wait until 9am?? Make it good though... lots of screaming and "Oh Yessses" etc..

Next time you talk to the neighbours, casually mention that all of a sudden the Mr. is a morning guy Something wakes him up and boooooooooooy is he randy!

House next door to us has been empty ever since the paedo neighbour vacated, until............... last Tuesday! I remember the day well! It was the day that the f****** dog moved in and it has howled and yelped ever since!!! Its tied up in the back garden on a long length of washing line, a bowl of water and a blanket. its like that all day until the owners return 10 hrs later! First day we let it go, second day we called the real estate agent who called the woman and told her to return and sort the dog out. Since then we have called the woman several times and asked her to sort it. She told me "it must be the area as we've never had a howling dog problem before". Yeah right! Neighbour on the other side has a hefty supply of poison, apparently if it carries on he's going to put it to good use. I don't doubt him for a second!

Please don't let it come to the dog being poisoned, the dog doesn't deserve that!

Can't you call your council or something? Sounds like a noise problem that the council might be able to sort out.

Was the tennis court there when you bought the house, or has it been hastily erected since you moved in. Every house we have bought we always have a few looks at, at many different times of day (and night) just in case there are things you may want to avoid.

council is an option. I made the real estate lady listen to it on the phone for 10mins she was horrified (hence phoning the woman pretty sharpish). I'll let the other neighbours sort out what they want to do. I'm monitoring Alf's poison jar! So far he hasn't used it!

I can imagine how horrible it must be living next door to all that noise :scared: I hope you get it sorted out soon and the owner either gets some training to help with her dog or gets it re-homed with someone who is able to take better care of it

ummm i read somewhere you can hire private detectives that specialise in sussing out areas for people who are looking to move. They note down any annoyances and noise etc

day time tennis I can cope with, grunting and groaning at 6am????? umm depends on how much gruntings going on!
