I visit this other forum (it's true, sorry Loz) where there are a whole lot more inmates than here, and it's even been around a bit longer (if that's possible). Years, experience, and volume of members there has led to forum rules where any bringing any sort of family into it gets you an immediate vacation. That must be for a reason. Myself, I spent enough time in undergraduate engineering to hear every mum joke there is, and it doesn't bother me. But if everyone was like me, the world would be a pretty boring place. So respect my authoritah, or expect some time off...

Kiteboy is on it. Keep a log of noise times and police calls and call the cops every 15 mins, give them the sh!ts. Get their surrounding neighbours involved, more than one call and the coppers can't ignore it. As soon as the noise starts, send a txt to all the neighbours asking them to make a noise complaint. Coppers can't lock 'em up but they can impound the stezza. Your main avenue of revenge will be the local council, once you and your neighbours have submitted a log of noise complaints the offenders get a max of three warnings or something before a fine of up to 60k. If it's a rental, you'll have new tenants quick smart and if it's owner occupied they'll learn to STFU in no time.
Went through it with the crackwhore next door about 12 months ago, once she realised that she was going to lose her house that she worked so hard to f%ck her ex over for, she learned to be a good neighbour.


We had a similar problem in our street, a private rental (no agents involved) and an owner who didn't care what was going on. We eventually got rid of them (took nearly a year) after we got together as a group of about 25 neighbours and with a lot of help from the local police. (they started visiting the owner at his business during the day and he was getting sick of the cops turning up every 5 minutes when he was trying to fix cars). Here in Qld if the owner or agent doesn't want to do anything there is basicly nothing that can be done. The council has no laws and is useless as tits on a bull.
Which is why I am interested in your post re the large fine after 3 strikes. Is that across the board in WA or just individual councils. Any idea where I can find more info. The rental authority here has 3 strikes and out rule for tennants but the owner or agent must instigate things. If the ferrals happended to own the property there would be nothing that we could do legally.

No such thing as 3 strikes.
Environmental Protection Act says coppers can tell them to turn it down, if they have to come back they can seize anything that can make noise and can charge the person. No particular noise level or time of day is required, it is just if it is annoying people.

Councils also have ability to prosecute but the problem is getting them to give a sh!t outside of office hours as thye have to turn up with their noise meter doo-hickey

I've got 'em too. Seem to be FIFO and sit outside 3-4 nights midweek from 1-5AM talking (occasionally raucously) and laughing. No music, and nothing that could be heard from two doors up probably, but f**king annoying. Am yet to do anything about it. Seagulls sounds like a cracker idea!

There is a wise ancient Chinese proverb thats says,
"If its too loud, your too old"

The police just love these complaints.
They feel in takes away time from catching real criminals,
like tazering and killing brazilian tourists that may or may not have taken a biscuit.

I had 20 noise complaints made against me over 6 months to council including numerous visits from the rangers and 3 visits from the cops a few years back.

Hey lotofwind - you do realise that Brazilian tourists are not tourists with brazilians, but holidaymakers who normally reside in Brazil.

I appreciate that you get excited and snigger when somebody mentions scotch finger biscuits, but a brazilian tourist who fingered some bisuits may not be quite what your sick little mind thinks it it.



I know, because somebody explained the situation to me after I giggled a lot, and told them 'shooting my tazer' was a euphamism I hadn't heard before.

ive got a mate that did the same thing. he was a sour old cretan until he realised that holding on to grudges was the cause, or a good part of, his stress. they say its a good start to forgive, not forget but use it as a lesson learnt.
just sayin'. no malice. have a good weekend - seriously.

its even better on minesite dongas, I had an arrogant mongrel neighbour who made bucketloads of noise on his shiftchange boozeup day and when ever our shifts coincided I had real problems getting any sleep.

muesli and nutrigrain on his roof each morning as I left for work meant crows with hobnail boots stomping up and down for most of the day.

took a week before he changed rooms.

If you become really fed up with loud people next door, the Police/Council say it is all to hard and the recalcitrant neighbours insist on continuing to be selfish pricks, purchase some Fluroscein Dye ( you can buy this online).
Begin buy sprinkling the powder on their cars and into grill/external vents, basically any crack or void. Then widen your attack to include random areas of their lawn, then gardens, plants and so forth. Just be aware that this stuff is super super concentrated, even the slightest amount of dust will turn any contact surface bright green. If they have a swimming pool, a cup will make the pool look like a giant bowl of radiator coolant. I am not exaggerating, a 5kg bucket of this stuff would turn Hillary's Boat Harbour fluro green for many weeks, maybe even months. Won't do any harm to the environment (apart from altering the amount of light penetrating the water, which may have some consequences) but would look terribly phucked up.

DO NOT GET ANY OF THE POWDER ON YOUR SELF as you will be easily identified as the culprit and you will look like one of the Simpsons for at least a month. Really, doing this would amount to a declaration of war. I wouldn't do it personally, but just putting it out there............

Move onto acreage


Ha. Every time I go for a drive in the sticks you always see huge properties
and houses within spitting range of each other.

Nothing - nothing - nothing - nothing - house - house - house - 10k's more of nothing
house - house - house and so on.... Just bizarre.




True,

if your house is about 10 meters away from your neighbour's house why not just live in town? I guess they do this to save money on electrical and other utility connections.

Great advice about the seagulls.






My nearest neighbours are a kilometre away, which is good as the young blokes (twins) are in a band- never hear them.

Behind us were at it again last night. First thing that happened was the alarm went off. It went for about 10 minutes then paused for about 10 seconds before starting again, on and off for a while until a car came racing down the driveway. There was a banging on the door (theirs, not ours) and shouting. Alarm kept going off for a while until it was replaced completely by shouting. From what I could pick up of the conversation the female of the species must have changed the alarm code without yet changing the locks, and the male had arrived without permission while she was out. Eventually the male was convinced to leave with the help of a relative of the female. The female later came out and apologised to another one of the neighbours behind. From what we heard of that we caught the sentence 'he's not a hobo, he's got money'.

Everything else put together we reckon she's booted him out once and for all (if she goes ahead and changes the locks as well). That will leave her a single mother with two children to two different fathers. The oldest one is 'special needs', and the guy she just booted out had some problems with 'basic problem solving', to put it mildly. So his new baby doesn't have much genetic chance of topping any classes at school either.


This is why we need boat people.

arrange for Chook to visit with his pulsejet the morning after the night your neighbours chuck a nice noisy booze up.

pulsejet + hangover = mass migration to anywhere in the general direction of "away"
