There are new people in the garden flat.

At 3.15 this morning I was woken by a crowd of drunks coming along the street, yelling and squealing. Oh no! they're coming here!
They went into the garden still yelling and squealing, all the floodlights came on. Then they went in and out of the front door, slamming it over and over again, yelling on the street and ringing my doorbell. This went on for an hour.

I have written to the new people telling them this is not neigbourly and could they
a) ask their visitors to keep it down in the early hours
b) could they prevent their visitors ringing my bell in the early hours

I don't think I'm that much of an old fart but it's too much. My mother suggests I keep a bag of guinea craps to chuck out of the window on people like that - I am two floors up ;D

Call the cops next time. Drunk and disordaly(sp)(better learn that one ;D) and disturbing the peace are just two that spring to mind. Section 5 of the public order act, swearing etc. Ooh i'm good! ;D
That or the guinea pig poo sounds like a good one. Have your own party and get your mates to do the same to them. See how they like it. Some neighbours you just wana see put down!
 
I hate it when that happens - it sometimes happen here during the summer in the garden flats.
 
Oh dear. I understand how you feel, I lived in a flat til last May when me and the bf bought a house together (he's still in shock I think!). I had some terrible people below me, they'd have the TV on in the bedroom til 4am at top volume, so I couldn't sleep, then when the girl moved out to live with a bloke she gave the keys to her toe rag cousin who was even worse! They lefy broken glass all over the path outside and rubbish bags on the stairs inside - disgusting.
If your flats are run by a management company you could write to them - thats what I did, and it did seem to help...
 
good thinking frozen piggy pellets as a weapon, thinking of an Agatha Christy type murder plot here lol
 
LMAO Just report 'them! Cops, council etc - these days I won't put up with it and letters don't work
 
frezze it first!

That's very positive (hopefully) you could have received a much worse response!
I'd guess they were maybe celebrating moving into their new home?

we used to have teenagers down the park in the summer months til late at night. at that time, i used to play out, so when i got to the park in the morning with my friend bottles were everywhere. our park is just behind us, and the entry is a couple of houses down. my old primary school used to go back earlier, and on the night of going back, i'd be kept awake until 2-3 am by them laughin and smashing stuff. not the best way to start a new year at school! :( sometimes police were called because they were setting things on fire, or smashing stuff. such a shame, because we live in such a nice area. :'( (louds of old people, no younger kids for me to play with)
 
I'm glad your neighbours were good about the note and apologised. I've had to put up with noisy neighbours loads of times and they took no notice of any complaints

Hopefully they will stick to that. If not, do what Sehnsucht suggested and call the police.
