Loud music

Is there a reason why teenagers, mainly boys, have to play there music at full volume for the rest of the street to hear! At the moment there is 2 differnt sorts of music being blasted into the street. Pink Floyd from my neighbour, which isnt too bad, and a "thump thump" stuff for across the road somewhere!!![:(!]

It's not just teenagers, My new neighbor who must be in her early 50's insists on having her TV on full blast up until 11.30pm and then has the cheek to bang on the wall (waking our kids up) when she turns it off because she can then hear ours. The only reason she can hear ours is because we have to keep turning it up to be able to hear it. You would hope she would have more consideration when there are young children both sides of her but maybe that's wishful thinking.

That did cross my mind but then she wouldn't be able to hear our TV, we never have it exactly loud even when struggling to hear it over the top of hers. I've come to the conclusion that she just hasn't realised that living in a terrace (she lived previously in a large possibly detached house)you do get to hear some of your neighbor activity. When the penny does drop maybe she won't discuss her financial details (shouting over the top of her own telly) so loudly that most of the road can hear, (believe me it was nothing to shout about)[:D]

I had one of those who actually lost me a sale on my house because every word on the 'phone could be heard from next door. I must have become immune to it. Had a friendly word and he did realise and quitened down a bit [:)]

It can happen accidently. Many moons ago I decided I need a quick, but load blast of the Clash before I went out, one balmy Sunday evening. I thought I then switched it off - I pressed "repeat track" instead (with the windows wide open). Arrived back at 3am, walking down Fore Street , wondering what inconsiderate sod would have such a loud party on a Monday morning (and not invite me) but at least they were playing "Brand New Cadillac". For the 84th time I later calculated. Profuse apologies to neighbours later in the day..... CP

You didn't hear it as you left!? Afterall, you thought you'd switched it off?!
