Very Scary

Well, we had a lovely new year. We had our 10th wedding anniversary on the 30th. Our nephew was born on the 31st in England. Taffy turned 40 on January 1st. We celebrated in quiet style as we are quiet people.
The same can't be said for our neighbours who partied for 2 solid weeks. The bass noise bounced around our home. Then this morning at 4, we were awakened by an enormous thump which we assumed was an earthquake. We jumoed out of bed to find a very drunk neighbour in our porch banging hell out of the front door. She was accusing us of calling noise control and threatening to kill us. We called the police. Just in time - she came back with a plank of 2 x 4 which she battered hell out of the garage with. She then tried to break in the front door with it just as the boys in blue turned up. They've taken a lot of knocks recently, but I have to say they were marvellous.
I'm not sure whether I will ever feel safe in my own home again. Only time will tell.
p.s. Happy New Year.

That's way too much excitement for New Year. Remind me not to buy a house in your street!

Seriously, that must've been a bit of a worry. It's just as well the police weren't too busy to go over to your house (it being New Year), and got there in time.

I hope your neighbour is feeling really embarrassed.

Oh, and happy anniversary and happy birthday to Taffy.

oh crikey! what a mental b*tch. does the council get told about that? And their landlord? Can you press charges? I guess they arrested her?

Not fair, not bloody fair at all. They are the cause of the problem and you end up suffering even more. I'm so sorry, that's just really awful.

Damn, And I thought my neigbours were bad, but luckly for me they think it's someone else calling noise control....
