    You want to move out into the countryside, my neighbour helps me out with welding and stuff, then I go and rip it up down the road "testing" my race bike :/

    My neighbours are pretty good. Used to have a Ducati 998 with Termignoni pipes across the road, and it used to piss me off when he'd go for a weekend ride while I was doing sundry chores.

    Haven't seen it for months, so I dunno whether he sold it or is dead (his wife/partner is still there).

    I think we must be the neighbours from hell, though, what with 5 stereos (including a 350W/channel job and a 120W/channel 6.1 system), two guitar amps, an occasionally noisy bike, nosiy power tools most weekends, and this grumpy old bastard who sometimes yells obscenities at his unruly and mental son...
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    I reckon that you should give them a couple of weeks and see how you go.

    I completely understand about the kid screaming, but it might have been a one off in regards to the shift. Or it might not. For that matter, who's to say that 10pm was the only time they could get moved in, due to work or whatever?

    Give them a couple of weeks for you to get used to their noises, by which time your brain will be starting to filter out a lot of the sounds. It's kind of like living near a railway or airport flight path.

    If the kid continues to be a problem, go & see them about it & see how you get on.

    By any chance, are these guys last last name 'Coburn'?

    Fuckin wankers. 2 years of shit, move house to get away, now they have begun stalking us and looking into our house from the street.

    Just remember, it may not be today, and it may not be tomorrow, but they will die, just keep reminding myself that

    Who moves in at 10pm? Doesn't sound promising.
