We've just found ourselves with some noisy neighbours. About three weeks ago some people moved in over the back fence - DH has had a look and says it looks like 2-3 young blokes. They have a stereo with an amazing sub - and absolutely no respect or consideration for anyone else in the neighbourhood. For the first week we were subjected to doof doof from 4:30 in the afternoon through to 11pm at night. And it hasn't got any better since. Over the weekend we ended up calling the police 4 times in 3 days - but I doubt they are really taking it seriously (the neighbours or the police). We're starting some things through the council, but meanwhile I sit at home with constant headaches due to the noise and the fact that just hearing doof doof makes me extremely agitated and stressed. So I'm getting no school work done at all. I'm sitting here with all the windows closed and the air conditioner turned on and my own stereo turned up really loud in an attempt to completely mask it... Unfortunately, Sam's not going to sleep because of it so I'm still not getting any work done and all my old documents from the pre-Sam days have disappeared from the school server... I burned them to a disk as I kind of expected it - but as we moved, I can't find the disk! I'm so screwed....
