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.

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
