We have new neighbours since just before Christmas. The guy is twisting my melon! 😯 Morning noon & night, seven days a week the stereo is booming - that low down bass rumble that you can't get away from. Also he has a dog that he leaves in the garden at all hours of the day and night. We hear it out there howling its little heart out. Its been out there on some of the coldest evenings of the recent weeks 🙄 It breaks my heart to listen to him/her. A doggie should be part of your family and treated as such imo. What would you do? RSPCA? Beat with Bombers? Piss in his shoes? I await your sage like advice from the hive mind 🙂
Have you tried talking to him?
Nuke them from orbit.
Private or rental ?
The Nuke?

I agree with PP. Go and punch his lights out.
Go and punch his lights out.
Punch Perchy?
No thanks CFH. Perhaps just a sweet sherry.
Poison his pot plant?
Pick another forum for some unchildish replies?
Serious answer, talk to him. He may not realise the sounds carries so much or that his dog whines when he's away.
Park your car right outside his house, write him a passive aggressive letter and deploy the tranquilliser sausage.
Not sure if he's bought the place or rented it from the previous owner. He's always at home (I know this as I'm at home also bar when I'm at dialysis 3 times a week) so theres no excuse as far as I can see to be so cruel to his dog. Im considering firing up the Naim and giving him a taste of his own medicine in the wee small hours. Never met the guy (yet) but the fist/face interface is sounding favourable atm 👿
Shouldn't you try talking to him first? Before punching him in the face?
" Hi , I'm your neighbour. We've never actually met but you're cruel to your dog and your music's too loud".........KAPOW!
It's a bold strategy. I'll give you that.

I will of course [i]try[/i] this first but I don't rate its chances of securing a decent outcome. I don't think hell be that kind of person
The dog bothers me more than the music tbh
Twisting your melon, man? Call the cops! 😉
I had this. Spoke to the neighbour, then asked them to come to my place and hear the sound I was getting off them. It stopped and we got on since. They just did not realise.
I was thinking more
"Hi, I live next door, the walls here are really thin, thought you should know as I can hear your music and you probably didn't realise. Also, is your dog OK as I could hear it whining and I know if it was mine I'd want to know"
Most people are reasonable, mention it, worst case he tells you to go away and you're no worse than you are now. Best case he realises and the problem is sorted.
Twisting your melon, man? Call the cops!
Yeah..... don't forget.....you're the man!
. Spoke to the neighbour
Pure genius on a cycling forum.
Lunge & caher - yup. sound advice.
Failing that, back to Captain Flashheart.
