NeighboursI used to live next door to a pair of elderly naturists, only finding out about their hobby when they bade me a cheerful, saggy 'Hello' while I was 25 feet up a ladder repairing the chimney. Luckily, a bush broke my fall, but the memory of a fat, naked man in an ill-fitting wig will live with me forever.

My mate James, a very nice blokeis a complete arse when he's drunk. I recently showed him Spotify, and he's been showing it to his neighbours. Through the walls.
Took the council three letters, one every couple of weeks, to get to the point of installing monitoring equipment. James now has a noise abatement notice, and will go to court next time he infringes, which I'm sure won't be very long.
So, in conclusion - go the formal route, and nag the council - they're shit, but if you kick up enough fuss, they'll get the job done. If the pikey neighbours hassle you about it, go to the police about that. Demand that any threats are logged, and investigated.
However faux-hard they are on a day to day basis, being met with official after official is bound to sap their nerve.
