Simple solution buy the

nice considerate person a good set of cool wireless headphones

then they can have the music as loud for as long as they like

As a "reasonable person" I do not object to music during the day but at 9 o'clock at night I do especially when i have to go to work at 6am. Any "reasonable person" would respect the rights of others. We also live across the road from a retirement village and most are in bed by 8 usually except the night in question.
Anyway all as been quiet since the police visited.

If you lived in NSW you would at this time have been not been within your rights rights to call the police ,which allow your neighbors to use amplified equipment that can be heard from within your residence until 10pm weeknights .

Registering noise complaints against someone who isn't even home is beyond antisocial, it is vexatious.
(as are a number of suggestions of retaliation posted in this thread)

I did shift work for 10 years, you quickly learn to deal with noise during your sleep time.
Often I would just turn a small fan on low... the white noise is very effective at covering transients from outside.
That should give some clue as to how loud noise trespass often is, (or isn't).

That's clever. Is that link what you termed "a blurry line of the law"?

If you go back and read my posts you'll find out what I was referring to by blurry line of the law . Don't give up your day job....

The gulf between the heart and the mind is usually wider in intellectuals than in simple, uneducated people

Are we resolving anything here guys?

As a moderator, let me say the thread is starting to look ragged.

Please remember to play the ball not the player.
