Invite the neighbours

Cherie Howie at HoS reports:

parties are attracting regular noise complaints from neighbours.

Council environmental control team manager Mervyn Chetty told the his officers were being called to noisy swinger parties by neighbours unaware of what was going on inside.

“They just hear loud coming in from there but when the [noise control officers] get there and the door opens, it's some weird swingers' party. It's happening a couple of times a month.”

Generally if I'm hosting a party that could be quite noisy, I'll invite the neighbours to attend, as if they are at it, they won't be trying to sleep complaining about it.

So that seems the obvious solution to those hosting sex and swinger parties – invite the neighbours along.
