Have you had bad neighbours?
Posted: 12 May 2014, 08:09What a week we had last week.
Our neighbours who rent the property attached top us really out did themselves last week. They have been here for about 10 months I think. They have always been lovely. A bit heavy footed on the stairs but nothing to write home a bout.
Then a couple of days before the bank holiday weekend they told me they were having some family round for a party and it might be a bit noisy. being bank holiday I was quite okay with that and thankful for the consideration. They said it was her mums 2 sisters and their husbands as they hadn't seen them in 9 months.
What turned up via mini bus whilst I was out on the Friday was 13 people! We live in a 2 bedroom terraced house. With the 4 of us we are cramped! So you can imagine the noise. Anyway it was just for the weekend so hey ho!
By last Wednesday we were at screaming point! No sleep and Liv has her exams starting today. She was so tired she was in tears by then. So I went round to talk to them which is really awkward. The mum came to the door and I had to step back from the smell. They hadn't had a window open in all the time they lived there so imagine the smell of 13 people, cooking, damp washing and the heat as they like it hot! It was horrific.
I explained the problem and she said that they would keep it down. They didn't. I spoke to the husband on Thursday and he said that we would get some sleep now as they were all going to Scotland for a few days. But with so many adult I couldn't expect it to be quiet!
He then said that they were all coming back after a few days and they were staying for another 3 days which would mean poor Liv wouldn't have any sleep before her exams. I had no choice but to call the letting agency. They were lovely and spoke to him and said that it was in violation of his lease. I was then told that they would be here Sunday and leaving Monday (today) Well Saturday night they all banged in again! Last night was the same! I really hope that they stick to their word and do go today. I am so tired!
The agents said they are doing a house inspection tomorrow and will go from there! SO fingers crossed for a quiet night tonight!!!

Thank goodness for Monday moan day!!!!
Thank you for listening to my rant!!
