You're not Andi's mum are you???...she has the same problem...'cept she's in a flat,so her neighbour's above her....all hours!the fates lead him who will;him who won't they drag.

Yup, sympathise with you on that one - our neighbour hoovers at all hours and she has one of those noisy Kirby things!!! Madmax once got the hammer drill out and started drilling into the joining house wall - no result - she didn't hear it!!!
Happy Gardening,
Shirley

Yes. I was kind of suggesting that perhaps she's doing in retaliation for noise she hears from her neighbours (not necessarily you)Originally posted by piskieinboots View PostAll gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb.Comment

Maybe your neighbour is really clumsy, can't make a cake without getting flour everywhere. Or maybe her partner is !
I know what your saying tho, it does seem a bit obsessional doesn't it.
We once lived on the bottom floor in a house turned into flats and the lads upstairs had 2 dogs which they left in ( after a walk of course ) while they went out for the night. It used to sound like the dogs were using a rowing machine across the floor until the boys came home and then there would be a lot of hammering and banging.
Drove us crazy.
Turned out the dogs were ripping up the skirting boards cos they were bored at being left and the hammering was them being nailed back down again. ( the boards not the dogs )

ah fair point - but not true in her case ....Originally posted by Two_Sheds View Post
Our MQ's are in semis and I am her only direct neighbour, I am (honestly) a quiet considerate neighbour. I do not turn my office radio on in the mornings until I know she has left with the kids, I don't get on my cross-trainer at unsocial hours - I don't let Snowdrop have his films blaring out - nope, no excuse, she is just barkingaka

Maybe she hasn't realised how much the noise travels? If you are quiet then maybe she thinks the sound insulation is actually better than it really is????"Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple

Have you asked if you can borrow it? Tell them that yours has brokened and you aren't able to get to the local store. Then, make sure they're in, and use it close to the adjoining wall, and keep going for half an hour or 45 minutes. That, or borrow it and just vacuum the wall itself, they must be able to hear it.
Or you could do what most neighbours do when borrowing things - just don't give it back.A simple dude trying to grow veg. http://haywayne.blogspot.com/
