My mrs used to take out of hours calls for the council as part of her job and the environmental heath dept had a noise bloke weekend nights who would go round peoples houses and ask them to turn it down. He could also serve notices if they didn't.
IIRC, they wouldn't do much about noise until after midnight unless it was persistant.
To be fair, it's not unreasonable to have a party make a bit of noise at 8 o clock.

Wait til the music stops (You'll prob be awake anyways). Give it two hours. Then put all your speakers or whatever on, hover yer place, turn the TV up full, whatever makes most noise - if you have a shared internal wall. If you don't have a shared internal wall, order them cabs, pizzas, whatever will f*** 'em up most. As a last resort, scratch 'Shut The f*** Up' on their cars. Sad it should come to that, but sometimes you have to educate the stupid in a way they understand.

You could always try knocking on their door and asking them to turn the music down, not everyone is a psycho killer.

I turned into one a few years ago.

Bloke next door fell asleep with a Christmas Hits CD ( of all things ) on auto repeat on fall blast next door. His bloody speakers are the other side of the wall to my pillow, so Chris De Burgh's Spaceman came travelling through every bone in my body.

You simply wouldn't believe it. Slade, Wizzard etc.. all your bloody Christmas favourites right through the night.

I banged on the wall, banged on the door, rang the door bell etc.. We tried everything bar smashing the wall down.

Eventually I woke him up at 6 in the morning after God knows how many times Elton John had stepped into f*cking Christmas.

I nearly rang his neck.

Do They Know Its Christmas? Yes we bloody did.

Try a note on their car windscreen. "if you don't keep your noise down around here, things will be done to make you think about it".
They are quite likely to be unreasonable, since they'd otherwise know they were loud and stop in before it starts. Confronting unreasonable people identifies you, they will likely rile you much more than ever, and you now have less power of retribution.

Known unreasonable vs anonymous unreasonable :thumbsup:

This thread was started at 8pm.. im assuming in the past the music has gone on later than this?? What sort of time does it usally stop. IMO having some music on/having people in the garden having a BBQ making noise etc at 8pm isnt that bad

You expect it in the summer it's just people enjoying themselves, If it gets out of hand or goes on too late then fair do's complain but as long as it's kept within the law then there's no harm in it imo.
