Feel awful this is my first post and I am here to moan... Some joyful souls sang their hearts out last night from around midnight to 3:30am... Dancing queen, barbie girl, I'll be there for you and other shower time classics... Didn't want to report you guys and ruin your karaoke party but please keep it down a bit next time... Cheers

No point posting here you should be contacting the Southwark Council about this. And they won't the reading the forum, it'll be too early as they'll all still be in bed with hangovers.


ONLY JOKING, but I thought I'd be the first here to say it. /curmudgeon mode ;-)


From that playlist it sounds as though they'd be of 'a certain age' and should know better. I'm having a similar local problem but it's more of a persistent up to 3am "Livin' la Vida Loca" issue. I'll be reporting them too next time.

Thanks Andrew thought I'd give this forum a try before I report them to the council. Every neighbourhood has "a voice" eh.


Jah my guess is I am younger than the singers, but that's not really the point... If I sound miserable it's probably due to the lack of sleep :(

They were super noisy!!! Ace of base rendition and bohemian rhapsody were particularly entertaining!


We are hoping it was a one off and doesn't happen every weekend (can't complain as we have probably been those neighbours once)! We could see which house it was coming from so will happily mention it to them if it happens again!


Now for an afternoon snooze....

Grab yourself a clipboard or file put in your Southwark Council Tax bill or any other correspondence with Southwark Logo sticking out the top and walk around there - assuming they don't know you of course. Pretend to be from the noise control team. Be nice and say you have no option but to call on them because there have been complaints.


Done it twice myself and it worked a treat. 100% more effective than ringing Southwark, waiting an hour for a call back and a further hour for them to come around and trample through your house to see if they can hear the noise and do nothing in the end.... I have tried it the proper way to no avail and I do not own a handgun - unusual for Peckham I grant you so my clipboard is my new weapon. Can be borrowed at a fee !!!!

Monts; Im pretty sure its me who should be feeling horrible that my first post is to appologise, rather than you having to get online to ask for one! The playlist seems gutwrenchingly familiar and I believe this may have been my party (allthough the date seems a little off). I spoke to immediate niegbours and handed out my phone number ahead of time etc, and left a note on the front of the house with a number as well, but thats no excuse for lack of self regulation. I value our community and would hate to fall out with anyone over this, so sincerest appologies to everyone and thanks for your patience. It was indeed a one off and wont happen again. I will have to trust freddie mercury will somehow live on in our hearts without my homage.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
