   Myself and my housemate have lived next door to the neighbours from hell for the past two years. Both of us work nights and whilst we appreciate the majority of people have to go about their daily business as normal, what we do not appreciate is blatant arrogance and spitefulness from our neighbours keeping us awake all day, with banging and drilling, false loud laughter, door slamming etc. I am in my 30's, my housemate is in her 40's and these neighbours from hell of ours are, believe it or not PENSIonERS!!
   They spray our cats with washing up liquid if they stray in their garden, which naturally cats do. Spray them with water, that's fine, but washing up liquid is poisonous.
   These pensioners come across as being the most friendly of people, but they are pure EVIL.

   If you have neighbours that you know would be violent toward you if you approached them then do what i did with my last neighbours.
   Write an anonymous letter complaining but report yourself as well, the council will have to act on the information and send you a letter as well, i had to go to my local council office where they asked me about my loud music ( i dont even own a stereo) and told the council to come to my house so i could prove it.
   Basically it draws the attention away from you, my neighbour came banging on my door accusing me of reporting them so i waved the letter in their faces amd told them i recieved one as well and they should look elsewhere (f**king idiots beleived me) and started blaming the other neighbours and the music started to go quiet because they had no idea who was reporting them and paranoia started to set in.
   Trust me it works, i've done it twice now with different neighbours and its worked both times.
   Nobody will suspect someone if they also have a letter from the council as well for anti social behavior. and usually the morons who are causing the trouble in the first place are to numb to even think of it in the first place.
   Yeah its sly but its clever.
   Trust me, why dont you try it, you would be surprised and its funny as hell watching your idiot neighbours trying to figure out who it was in the first place.

   In the 80's my mum, then in her 70's, lived in a ground floor council "cottage flat" in Wythenshawe i.e. there was just one flat above. This was fine until the single mother who lived above moved out and was replaced by the family from hell. The level of noise was unbelievable - kids running round like a herd of elephants screaming at the tops of their voices, pop music blasting all day and late into the night, the adults singing advertising jingles all day, screaming and swearing at each other all evening. The man would start DIY work at 1 o'clock in the morning, hammering and drilling. Not only that, but they dumped all their old furniture in my mum's back garden and there were babies' nappies and other junk all over the garden. Eventually, rats moved into the garden and my poor pensioner mum, who was terrified, got served with a Notice from Environmental Health to clear it or face a fine of £2,000! The man was rough and aggressive, and my mum was very intimidated. When I went to the Council to ask if they could move my mother to a quieter, safer place, they refused,saying it was "just normal family life" and that my mum should be more tolerant. So much for the caring Council! Eventually, my mum went to stay with a friend and was too afraid to go back. She still had to pay the rent, though. I think it contributed to my mum's decline.
