Earplugs don't completely block noise out - they just muffle it enough to help me sleep. I can still hear the doorbell when I'm wearing them. As annoying as they can be, I'm not sure I'd want my neighbours to be punished for having fun.

Kid they used to get said house dragged off to grandparents or god knows where for the night, will probably be dropped to house with "party" still in swing. No doubt the cretins on the other side will do likewise tonight or tomorrow.

Try calling the garda, no interest because there are guess what, no laws against such ****baggery in this poxy country.

Instead it becomes a ghetto for the underclass. All a product of bad social planning, and we all have a responsibility for that.

My parents had nothing when we were growing up, they taught us how to be respectful of people. Neither of my parents had a formal education, but they worked themselves harder than anyone I have ever known to put a roof over our heads, to educate us and bring us up as proper people. There are many families living in council estates who have respect for others ... there are alas many who don’t. Do NOT blame this on society, it is the individuals themselves that are to blame

The crowd on the other side actually had the brass neck to approach me on the street and square up to me(As I was walking home with my child with dyspraxia/autism) because I called the gardai at 4.30 am to break up their drunken/drug fuelled party. These are people in their mid twenties at least with children themselves, not teenagers either.

Have moved around a lot and honestly had similar problems in every area we've lived, mostly mixed private/social, this street is 100% social housing and is by far the worst yet. In saying that, my previous next door neighbour is currently on remand for murder. Seriously think you can't avoid this ****e anywhere in Ireland. Thinking long and hard about emigration, but is anywhere else better/quieter in this regard?
