Yep, get a higher fence to start with. Then make the most of the time when 8-year old is at school. Have you considered sound proofing?

Thanks Sara. At Easter I bought kids eggs to make them feel welcome I knocked on the door took her an eternity to answer she looked like she expected me to have a go. She mentioned making the fence higher. I said no that is my fence. I own they rent. Plus they seem to have people staying over frequently with kids nor sure where they all go as there are 2 bedrooms.

My son and daughter in law, are in an almost identical situation, landlord has been no use at all

They want to move, but can’t imagine anyone would want to buy their house, with this family next door!

6 weeks ago new family moved in couple plus kids 2 and 8. Previous tenants with kids no problem. They sound like they are dismantling the house brick by brick. Constant thudding up and down and screaming sounds like they are in the room above me. We are in houses.

BBQs most nights. Even her partner slams the door shut till the bbq is over. That time of year I suppose.

Kids balls toys rubbish and food chucked over 5ft fences into my garden. If I am there chuck it back. It can go on all day.

Older kid keeps knocking on my door 8pm one night wants his ball back I say I have a bad back will throw back when I can. Been at hospital and physio look out in garden no ball so has he been over?

Chucked ball back this am. Home later 5 items in my garden. She is clattering about thudding into fences. I have to wear earphones to sit in the garden. Other people in their gardens the only people u can hear are them.

She has no idea what kids are doing as thy are unsupervised and she shouts from indoors.

She apologised for bbq was a stinker tonight.

So do I gather the items and return to parents and say no more.

Do I contact the landlord and letting agent?

They seem to have no regard for anyone else.

Thanks in advance.
