Always been a lovely quiet street since I moved in. But in the last week there has been an innceaantly barking dog most nights somewhere nearby. Has anyone else heard it at night? And does anyone know exactly where it is so that I can report it?


Furthermore, a couple of lads on scooters (one on a small motorbike with a white helmet) have been using the street as a bit of a circuit of late. Has anyone also noticed this? Can anything be done about it? I feel like I'm going mad through lack of sleep!

Must be a different dog because this one was barking for about 3 hours solid last night and it's starting to drive me mad! I'm certainly not someone to complain over the small things and, as a dog owner myself, I'm all too aware that dogs bark. Happy to drop a note through a door before resorting to calling Noise Control or the police.


Re the scooters.. I've had messages from a couple of others saying that it's not just the noise, but the behaviour of the riders that have been causing problems so will definitely be phoning 101 next time.

RE: The scooters, the lads live on Playfield, Lytcott and Melbourne. They come out every summer to fix up and parade their scooters, however they are not out there til all hours of the night. Every year the same neighbours phone the police and make the same complaints - the police come round see they are lads hanging out not causing any trouble or damage and leave them to it. The Police have been around there twice this week alone and spoken with the boys... they are nice and polite boys who have all grown up around there. All it takes is for you to have a word with them if they are disturbing you.


No doubt the ones that have PM'd you are the said ones who are making the complaints, in which case they must be aware of how many times the police come and have a chat and laugh with the boys and leave them be.


I hope the issue with the barking dog is resolved, that would drive me mad.

    • I have had multiple jobs completed at my home by T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, and I wouldn't go to anyone else now. They always come at the agreed day/time, I have never been asked to rearrange. The jobs have always been completed to extremely high standards, and as a perfectionist myself, I appreciate this level of care and detail. I'm grateful of the clear up afterward too, leaving me very little to do after the job is done. I am always blown away by the speed and efficiency  - no waffle, no flannel, just sheer hard work from start to finish. In summary - a highly professional first class service. Don't hesitate to call T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, if you like excellence and trade people that will respect your home. 
    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here.
