What is with all the noise in ED recently?!

[Ronnijade]

Seems like this hot weather is bringing out the inconsiderate morons again. Currently laying in my bed listening to someone on Hillcourt Road having a garden party and playing loud music, and I have to be up for work in four hours. Such selfish behaviour, especially in the middle of the week. I?ve just had to close my window to try and get some peace and as you can imagine my room is boiling as it is! Please be considerate!!!!

[KidKruger]

shout out the window Ronnie what's the problem FFS

[creditwheredue]

Motorbikes, the noise they make seems to hang around for ages, I?m sure I can hear a bike make a journey from Goose Green to the South Circular

[Peckhampam]

There are people on my road who play a booming bass during beautiful sunny days who make it impossible to enjoy the garden. KidKruger, asking doesn't help if they just don't care.

Feel your pain - there is a house on Cannonbie road that seems to have constant garden parties. Loud music and loud drunk people talking till all hours. They even brought out a didgeridoo last summer for an hour or so. I asked them to be quiet and they told me where to go. Pleasant people that they are.

[JohnL]

I used to shout at people to "SHUT UP" from my balcony but as my voice is like Windsor Davies it just woke everyone else up who wasn't already awake - so I stopped.

[JohnL]

Just saw what happened in Brixton last night - not sure if that would create issues in ED/Herne Hill/Peckham

[Ronnijade]

Sure it wasn?t you KidKruger? That was an awful aggressive post you just made there!

[Lordship_local]

On that note - does anyone know why there are so many helicopters going around?

I'd swear most nights past 12 there is one hovering about. They can't all be going to the hospital, surely?

[Penguin68]

A hot summer with open windows is a burglar's paradise. I suspect the overhead surveillance may be about that.

[KidKruger]

Nah not intentionally Ronnie, just saying get yer boots on and verbalise with the mofos.

As a young woman I wouldn?t exactly feel safe starting trouble with a garden full of people who clearly have no respect for others?

[Spartacus]

Wait till Saturday the 4th when pubs reopen and the streets will be filled by drunk noisy revellers 😱

[Ronnijade]

Yeah, I?ll be one of them lmao.

[JohnL]

Not this Saturday - and the pubs effectively mean you have to book. I see a damp squib and disappointment.

So no pub hopping - isn't that the fun. It'll be like NYE where you're stuck in one pub with once a year drinkers :)

HORRIBLE!!!HOW CAN YOU BEAR IT!!! Change of lifestyle sounds essential to me! How about "Van Life", or a "Tiny House" in the countryside? So much stress must be bad for your health.

"Tiny House" in the countryside"

Current UK version of "little house on the Prairie"

[bingobongo]

Well. a cheap van would be better. You could park it somewhere quiet every evening. Having the same gasply neighbours every night, seems like a very bad idea to me...

[Ronnijade]

bingobongo..... you don?t agree that having a loud garden party that went on until about 3am mid week is a bit much? shut up with your weird passive aggressive sarcasm.

[Earl Aelfheah]

The idea that if you don?t like people playing loud music into the early hours in a residential area then you should ?get a life?, or ?move to the country? is ridiculous. Better advice would be, if you can?t live considerately alongside others, you shouldn?t be living in a city.

There's noises in the country too - cows, birds, tractors and teenagers live in the country too (they just have their parties in a rural rather than urban setting)

Having lived in both town and country, I would rather hear owls hooting - and the occasional sound of small animals screaming as the owls catch them - than some of the avoidable noises in the early hours round here ....

Tractors don't tend to be out at night, on the whole, nor cows moo ...

And teenagers tend to meet up with their mates in the towns/villages, not in the middle of the countryside ....

[nina_maniana]

I?m probably not with the consensus here but tend to think the sound of people having fun is just par for the course in city life. I like living in a mixed urban neighbourhood, i?ve tried living in quieter areas and it?s dull. Earplugs are cheap and totally effective xx

[nina_maniana]

Also i think the loud party was a wake. Which probably explains the midweek timing. Often when you think people are just being inconsiderate @-holes you find out there?s another explanation.
