tried that mate.
They had a party for his brother 2 weeks ago, all rolled back at 1 then pumped base until 6 a.m.
She informed us that they were having another party, to which I expressed my concerns that although she's giving us a days notice we have still got 3 kids in the house and she needs to respect that fact, she assured me that "it wont be like the other week, everyone will be gone before 1." The Mrs informed her that if its too loud & kids cant get to sleep then she'll knock, she was fine with that and said it would be lowered if thats the case.... my Mrs had to knock, she turned it down, but half hour later the kids are awake and it's louder than originally so i went round, full of apologies-someone elses fault again etc etc again assuring us they'd all be gone by 1am, I did point out that it was only Bass that was the prob and that the kids could feel it through their pillows so if that was reduced then there wouldn't even be a prob.
She must have stuck 2 fingers up as she shut the door, cos as I say it was 6 am again that the bass was thudding away.
Now these have had the chopper over our house with coppers in my back garden previously, so I'm fairly certain that if my Mrs had rang the Police as she wanted to,then an alert would've flashed regarding their antics last time and the coppers comments about 'an aroma,' maybe they'd have turned up and bumped into their beak delivery guy ?
so, having a word hasn't worked, and i reckon it'd only take 'til the end of the hols to break her, I reckon I could make me jumping through plate glass on a game or kicking a door through feel exactly like it was someone smashing through theirs, I can tell that it wouldn't take much to reduce her to a train crash and will be quite happy to do so.
I was thinking of getting a Sound Bar* as they take up less space/tidier but don't seem to have as much power.
*which would be referred to by the household as Gareth.
