  1. My sympathies. A couple of thoughts. It won't help the noise from upstairs but it may make you less angry to realise that un-soundproofed floors make everything sound terrible and she may not be making the noises purposly to upset you. Firstly it is very hard for people to change the way they walk and if she has a heavy footfall she has a heavy footfall. I used to live below an enormous rugby player and his petite girlfriend, and it was her I could hear because of the way she walked which she could do nothing about. The smallest thing can be magnified-I once sat through an hour of a thudding on my ceiling and finally knocked on the door to ask them to stop-they were mystified and said they were doing nothing to make a noise. In fact they were ironing, using a wonky ironing board, and everytime it wobbled my ceiling thudded. The above may help your blood pressure but not the noise, which I know is somehow very intrusive when from above. Would it be at all worthwhile asking your landlord if they would consider soundproofing? It can be done from your flat and helps enormously/
  2. Sometimes the forum can be annoying but with threads like this it is a witty delight!
  3. Nunhead cemetery
  4. Canada Geese taste awful! Tough and fishy.
  5. or if you ring them to come and take it away they will but charge ?40. There is an old thread about the subject
  6. What a thoughtful thought.
  7. I completely disagree about noise during the day. Hearing another persons noise can be completely soul destroying what ever time of the day or night it is. The council's guidelines are that your music should not be able to be heard outside the boundaries of your property and that makes perfect sense to me.
  8. I do feel ashamed of my curmudgeonly reaction! Happy birthday Lucy
  9. it is an openhouse as part of the Dulwich festival decorated by street artists
  10. I think Chase Dulwit's post is unnacceptable. This kind of personal abuse should not happen. Can admin do something about this?
  11. See post a couple of days previous to this entitled "Aggressive and Dangerous Cat" Sounds the same?
  12. I'm glad this post mentioned noise outside as last summer I was driven mad in my garden last year, by thumping music and I am hoping the noise team will deal with that as well (though I am hoping even more that it doesn't happen again this summer)
  13. yes-sorry-from ED to London Bridge. I'll see what I can do about the reverse....but somehow I always think that I can so something about the time I leave home for ED but getting to London Bridge for a specific time is harder so I tend to wing it.
  14. A few years ago someone produced a timetable like this for trains leaving ED, and I found it incredibly useful. I have been waiting for that person to produce a new one.....but it hasn't happened so I bestirred myself. Please do a shout if any mistakes are found.
  15. What is the name of the earplugs pkease???
  16. Sandy Balls http://www.sandyballs.co.uk/
  17. Wow....the content of the Forum has just gone up several notches.
  18. There is no such thing as ghosts!!
  19. On the good news front has anyone noticed that in fact the area is being kept rubbishless with regular clear ups.
  20. I've always let out privately, it is very easy and I feel far more secure than I would with agents considering everything I have heard!
  21. You weren't waking up with the first flights. It has been 4.30 on and off for years!
  22. re these postings and Alec John Moore's especially.....please make sure that keys are accessible to all in house in case of fire! You don't want to be locked in.
  23. Fazer 71...you seem to be suffering from what you accuse other people of-i.e. lack of brain and logic but you also do not seem to have a working pair of eyes. You say "It?s not rocket science Train Stations = Parking Problem. " only one thing wrong with your pronouncement-my street which is included in the proposed CPZ has no parking problem and plenty of spaces.
