Would you mention it or not?

One apartment I had we did get the party wall sound proofed because it was really like you were sharing the bed! It was an expensive solution, but the neighbours were young & fit & enthusiastic :-)
Perhaps if you play radio or music when they're being quiet it might make your neighbours think.

Play Je t'aime through the wall at them every time so they can't miss it.

I had a similar problem recently on holiday . Kept my room quiet and when they had finished I went close to their wall and coughed very loudly . Never heard them again.

My friend had a similar problem most nights after a couple moved in next door to her and her husband. One night after the usual noise came to an end my friend's husband shouted out 'Well - goodnight then!' and they never heard another sound from then on!

I would have to have a quiet word. If you can't bring yourself to do that maybe a wee anonymous note through their door?
I love the idea of applause though ??????

Why not record their noise and send them a cd? They will soon get the message. Put some loud clapping and cheering or canned laughter off the tv at the end.

OR you could put on a cd and turn it up loud so they can hear it and know you can hear them.

Maybe they could move bedrooms? Perhaps they like having an audience? There is always the park!

If they don't get the message be brave, tell them straight that you can hear every sound, that should put them off a bit.

I'd recommend the applause, it sounds as if that might be what they need to quieten down.

I asked my neighbour if our TV disturbed them, as I thought my DHs hearing not being too good, and TV so loud, it may have disturbed them, so you could ask the same thing.

I lived in a semi detached new build house with sound insulation problems. Apart from the lodger next door having such noisy sex that it could even wake me up in the early hours, when sitting in my lounge I could hear whoever was using the toilet next door in the upstairs ensuite! Apart from anything else it makes you very self conscious about what you do in your own house as if you can hear them, they can hear you! Needless to say I didn't stay in that house very long! And the point is, modern buildings should be better than older ones for sound insulation, but it's so often not the case. But fair play to your neighbours for still enjoying themselves in later life!

Greyduster???

We played Aeroplanes at War extremely loud. All complex neighbours rushed into garden scanning the skies. Including the noisy loving couple.

a couple moved in in the flat above me, their bedroom was above mine. I just told them that I could hear everything that goes on in their flat! It soon went quiet.

Tell them that the walls are thin and you can hear them and its not nice for your young grandchildren to hear when they come to stay, if your too embarrassed to tell them write them a note.

Was seriously thinking about an over 55's bungalow. Maybe I will give it a miss now. I live in a very well built 60's terrace. Can hear some things when upstairs but nothing like this. Perhaps builders think over 55's are past it.

Wait until they've finished and then stand outside their window with cards displaying marks out of ten!

When I was in a flat and got fed up with hearing "them upstairs" I dialled their phone number (first putting in 141 or whatever it is) at a crucial moment.

Dirty devils.

Made me laugh especially the applause love that Good luck

I'd work through these very creative and imaginative suggestions one by one zen to see which works

I remember staying in a very smart hotel in Ireland when a couple in the room next door started having the most enormous row about her mother. Then they "made up" in the most noisy and energetic way! Everything went quiet, and then they started rowing again!! We thought it was hilarious. Next morning at breakfast we saw them at their table and had trouble stifling our giggles! Fortunately, it was the last day of their stay. The next incumbents were much quieter!

I would just nip next door and ring their doorbell, it will put them off their stroke [ pun intended]

We had this problem about 10 years ago with a recently divorced man as a tenant. I swear that man was paying his companion as NO one could possibly have that many orgasms. Every 45 mins!! He must have been taking little blue pills or..... we still laugh about it.

Nevermind. We sent him a note and added that the people in the next BUILDING could hear them. The poor man was so mortified. We do not have double-glazing as it's a period building and his bedroom window (as the rest of the building's) overlooked a courtyard which just amplified it all like natural theatre.

Every new tenant gets the 'noise travels' bit from us now!

They likely do no realise... so best to play it safe and mention it. People who move from more fortified residences into park homes, densely packed bungalows or flats often do not realise how sound carries.

Wow! Respect, 3/4 times a week!
Seriously though, I would do what others advise and say innocently, ' hope our noise doesn't bother you, the walls here are so very thin!'

My friend made me giggle when she told me this was playing loudly in the room next to theirs when they were on their honeymoon:

Bolero by Ravel might be a good choice of music!

When I was doing my house jobs preregistration, the bedroom above the lounge in the doctor's mess was occupied by the obs and gynae SHO Many lunchtimes she was joined by the obs and gynae registrar in the very squeaky bed.
The faces of the senior consultants had to be seen to be believed! We juniors had difficulty containing our giggles.
We used a system of coloured lights as a call system ( before modern bleeps)
The call sign for the registrar was a a steady orange! He was known as forever amber!
And no, they were not married. He was married to someone else!
I think that came from tv series that was current at the time
