Offensive all night party


Recommended Posts

Where in Melbourne Grove was this, Countrlass22? The acoustics around here tend to amplify sound in such a weird way that I normally hear everything at my end (towards Lordship), but I didn't hear it last night.


It looked like there was party near me last night, but the back garden of the relevant house would have echoed across the nearby housing estate into the direction of the G&Ts (which is where I think you live?). Otherwise there could have been another one further down Melbourne towards East Dulwich Grove?


Residents in this area need to be extra considerate after 11pm, because they don't realise how the sound tends to bounce around at night.

I'd agree - if it was a regular thing, then that's different.


Personally, I would prefer our neighbours didn't do karaoke when they're drunk but they are definately having fun and I would much rather that than hearing people argue.


Having said that, the most irritated I've been is when they played the recent royal wedding at 500 decibels so they could hear it in the garden. Completely spoiled my morning/ afternoon plans and I ended up going out, rather than having to put up with it.


I hope you know who you are and don't do it again.

Certainly isn't, but where precisely is it on this thread? One mildly sarcastic (if somewhat silly) comment?

may I point out the OP posted at 12.10am.....not 5am.

At midnight I would hardly label it an 'all night party'

I think until 1am at the weekend one should be a bit more forgiving-and I actually work most weekends but despite that would never dream of complaining about noise from a neighbours party unless it carried on until well into the early hours.

I'm sure she may not have been and I get as annoyed at selfishly loud/late parties as the next middle-aged man who likes to go to bed around eleven - I also think Kibris' comment was rather stupid and of a part with his/her general sneery contributions to this forum. However, to claim "abuse" and ask admin to close the thread down because someone makes a silly comment is ridiculous, sleep deprived or not.

It's totally unreasonable to have an all night party in a quiet residential street without speaking to your neighbours in advance. The fact that the noise team shut it down also speaks volumes (excuse the pun).


I think the OP was lucky that it was midnight and not later on in the night as (ironically) the noise team close up shop much after that.

Hi - I just wanted to make a few clarifications to this message thread.


Firstly, Mea culpa - it was my 40th birthday party on Sat night on Melbourne Grove - but almost everything the OP writes above is incorrect. Secondly, it clearly did disturb the OP for which I apologise.


1. This was not an all night party. It started at 8Pm with the main party over by 1:30 and the last guests left about 2:15 when we switched off the music - clearly late enough to disturb people, again for any disturbance I am sorry - but not an all nighter.


2. Neither Southwark noise nor any other officials or authorities came round and we had no direct complaints.


3. We contacted all the neighbours we thought would be disturbed beforehand and took round bottles of wine. But in fact, it is a very close community on MG and most of our neighbours were at our party anyway!


4. This was a one off for a special occasion - we have lived in the house for over 8 years and not had a party before.


Again, I apologise to anyone that was disturbed but this was a special one off, and we thought we had taken steps to

Minimise noise and be as considerate as possible - a bit of local tolerance would be nice on some occasions instead of always thinking the worst - this wasn?t a bunch of irresponsible teenagers falling out onto the street at all hours - our guests left in a considerate manner.

    • Option 1.  Let them go bust.  Government takes over, until an appropriate solution found.  This happens with failing train operating companies  Option 2.  Anyone who made money on the privatisation, or their immediate descendants, bail them out  Obviously the latter isn't going to happen but makes me feel better/superior. What do you reckon?  Big picture.  Small picture as I posted elsewhere is that they were good when we had a leaking main.  And of course mass redundancies need to be avoided.
    • Hi my mum has a lovely frenchi , he needs to be walked , as mum (80) is a bit fragile . he is a lovely dog , a bit nervous when around other dogs . Mum lives in East Dulwich . how much do you charge ?   Thanks 🙏🏼 
    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw
