We got someone nearby who *started* playing music outside at 2am! I wouldn't want to hurt them, but I didn't really know what else to do other than stare forlornly at my ceiling and hope that my bad vibes would mean they would be overcome with guilt (they weren't).


Having to open the window in the heat really does make a noise difference though. In my last place, I used to hear a dawn chorus of different phone alarms going off on summer mornings....

I've had continuous loud building noise from the attached house next door being completely refurbished since last September- every weekday from 8am and they tried it on on a couple of weekends too. They did not contain dust until I got the council involved. The owners who are not living there accused me of lying when I texted them about the weekend work. And skip lorries and building supplies delivery lorries turned up even earlier until we complained to them.


8.10 am is NOT early

"Kindness" or "softly with his song" are two good recommendations !

Do you want to borrow my melodeon? 🤣🤣🤣


I'm sure you could drown him out 🤣🤣🤣


ETA: Or her ....



If that fails, you could "accidentally" throw it at him/her. It's quite heavy 🤣

You could employ the builders that have extended the house next door to me.

I had just cleared up some foxes' scat from outside my back door. I had just gone inside when a large black tile fell into my sideway at exactly the place where I had been cleaning just before! It was not from my roof- they had balanced the tile on the ridge between the two houses and it fell off.

Or failing that, drop a house brick and half a housebrick from the window but make sure it is from your actual window surround into their garden...

Sounds like BBW, saw himself as the Rambo of Sydenham Woods...

Nitrogen tri-iodide crystals on the keys. Or a computer program which re-broadcasts what's played with a delay of a couple of seconds and/or frequencies shifted by a semitone or so. Neither likely to be fatal but could have marked behavioural effects.


What would we be extinguishing, btw? Mozart, Debussy, Joplin, Gershwin, Bilk, ...?

      BAD ADVICE FROM HOLLAND & BARRETT

      By malumbu · Posted

      I've found it quite a useful thread.  Apparently protein powders are toxic. Not that I have ever, or will ever, try them.   https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/the-hidden-dangers-of-protein-powders

      What helps you keep on top of your home?

      By beansprout · Posted

      Personally can’t stand carpets however where I am renting has carpet in  bedroom and hall. Not great quality and certainly not cleaned. Was  in B & M recently and looking at carpet shampoo -wow got a can costing £2.99 to test.. No scrubbing as others seemed to imply. Spray, leave and poof - smells great, no dabbing or scrubbing and c leaving rubbish. First to admit is only temp solution but no need to hire carpet cleaner instantly  or pay for a company to come and deal with professionally. For 3/6 months happy to have used this - Have a carpet cleaner and in a month or so plan to use it.    Buy a steam cleaner for floors - not expensive - much better than mop and bucket and more hygienic all round. Can pick up second hand ones on e bay.

      Is this a true story? What protein powder causes kidney damage? Why didn't you cite an article? I shop at H&B, mostly to buy their castor oil, however, I would recommend researching any product beforehand. They do have very informative articles on their website. To be honest, I don't see the point of this post. You could have just taken the product back for a refund or complained in store and in writing.

      Love Dulwich rebranding as Turkish Restaurant

      By beansprout · Posted

      Well the Italian on Lordship Lane  recommended here was delicious.  Thank you so very much -my party were extremely pleased with ambience, location and lovely food plus puddings to die for. They are also on Deliveroo.  Will certainly be back when I am back in 6 weeks time. Went past Love Dulwich at lunchtime on my way to Italian - only a party of 2 - food might be excellent but decided to give it a miss - wasn’t impressed with manager who admitted he had only been there 2 weeks. Might be being totally unfair but doubt it, as no comments since about a month ago from Pugwash.
