    William asks for help!

    Dear fellow board members,

    I have recently received the letter below from a fellow occupant in my building. This followed the recent Jelena (sp) tennis game. My GF doesn't watch cricket. I don't have FOXTEL and so know nothing of the delay issues.

    How should I word my response?

    Get a CCTV unit and install it in your lounge room and without the occupant knowing! Then you can then log onto the internet and see what is happening when you know a major sporting event is on!

    Good luck but sounds a bit of a mystery to me!

    Actually, she wants to tell them to get "fucked", but we don't know who "them".

    As two lawyers, we also rather liked the "take action" line

    Tell them about the wild orgies you have for people that aren't interested in cricket, mention that you will keep the guests numbers down to 30 in the future

    Tell him to watch it on free- to-air, instead of Foxtail, so he doesn't have to experience the delays.

    Does your GF really scream that loud? Are you guilty, as charged?

    yep tel him to go fuck himself, in long-winded legalese type double talk. Inform him you don;t watch the crap and he should continue to guess at who the culprit is.
    OR
    walk teh letter down knock onthe door, explain that rather than go the trouble of writing a nice fuck you letter full of legalese double talk you thouhgt it best to show him the proper respect and tell him, personally, where to stuff the fucking letter.

    At the risk of being a contrarian, I would have said respond politely? The letter is, I would have thought very polite and reasonable. You share a building and noise from another unit can be very, very intrusive.

    Maybe thank him for bringing the matter to your attention, and ask if you can go down and see how bad the problem is for yourself.

    If he is a knob who would complain at a mouse fart, then go from there.

    If however your partner does tend to go into decibels (and my missus tends to shriek like a banshee when Thailand are playing), maybe treat it as a reasonable request and ask the missus (politely) to keep it down?

    see if by the judicious dropping of a large heavy object on your floor you can dislodge pictures , televisions or objects d art from his walls.

    Fvck, now I see why some people live in the wilderness with nobody within a bull's roar of them!

    I agree with nidhogg! Be diplomatic about it until the other person turns it into an undiplomatic situation.

    Living in a condominium block requires patience, understanding and most importantly communication and in the event of minor disputes.

    Hear the guy out and try to find out exactly whats going on and if you don't appreciate others complaints move.

    These people who live in apartment buildings in the city, and expect it to be as peaceful as living out in te county annoy the shit out me.
    I have a neighbor who lives 2 doors down (i'm in a house, and he in an apartment block) and whenever we sit out the back around the pool at night, he hurls abuse, and has even thrown rocks. on a couple of occasions it has been as early as 7.30pm, and the noise was never that bad - just a few people talking and laughing.
    Anyway, i found out who is, and that his pride and joy is the toyota supra he drives. last time he threw rocks, i called out and let him know that i knew that the supra was his - and guess what, he hasn't been a problem since.
    it turns out he is a shift worker who starts work at 4am - but that ain't my fault. if he wants silence - then move somewhere secluded..

    I think he is just a miserable bastard who doesn't like the fact that some people still have a bit of fun in this world..

    I would imagine if you let it be known that it is two lawyers he is dealing with, he will shut up, quick smart.

    Same, same the people who book into caravan parks, one metre from someone else and expect everyone else to go to bed when they do!

    Ah. Your neighbour must be so lucky. Lets just hope that the action he and the other neighbours are considering does not include baseball bats.

    Buy one of them big sets of ear muffs and leave it at the front entrance with an enlarged copy of the letter attached to it.

    Should get those muslim cooonts that start bellowing out their shit at 5.30 in the morning and wake me up even though I live at least a Km away to buy your apartment.

    That will fix their little red wagon!

    Deal with it the Thai way by blaming it on somebody else. You can do this by photocopying the letter and then delivering it to everybody in the whole building.
