Hm, I would read this more as “Just to let you know we’re having a party on the roof terrace this weekend. So if you were planning on having one too, or wanted a quiet afternoon on the roof terrace be aware that we will be there, doing this!”.

I wouldn’t think it meant you couldn’t use it, or they’re apologising for anything… just giving you the courtesy of letting you know this is what they’ve planned in this shared communal space. I’m thinking i’d write a similar note and then be faced with the question “Do I invite my neighbours too? Ugh, don’t really want to… and they probably don’t want to come anyway… but if i ask them they might feel like they have to come? … maybe i just won’t mention it and that way they can do what they like, yeah, good idea”

The thing that concerns me the most is that it’s laminated. What horrors have occurred?

#43

Probably to stop someone using it as bog roll in a pinch.

Have a party on the Monday

Got a right fucking weird neighbour at the moment (last 2 years). Only ever see him when he knocks on our door saying that we’re closing the door too loudly. Only wears some extremely acid wash jeans and seems to be taps off 24/7 no matter the weather. He doesn’t leave notes, just knocks and then is weirdly macho aggressive about how loud the door is when it closes. However, once we got in from the shop to a note written as if it was from the Spanish people downstairs in ‘broken’ Basil Fawlty english - said something like ‘Please to close the door so softly!’ Just started properly slamming the door now.

In the first flat I owned the guy upstairs once complained about me playing Radio 4 too loudly on a Sunday morning.

Have these people never lived in a shared apartment block before or something?

I read those notes as “We’re having a party. Fuck you.”

There’s been a few notes like those in the lift in my block too recently.

One of my neighbours have a very passive aggressive (bordering on aggressive) sign in their window. I’ll try and snap a photo when I get home.

Quite often get a ‘Daddy, I’m going to have to wee in the garden the second we get back’. My eyes tear up instantly at these beautiful words.

Apologies, I did think this was a risk with this comment, I should have gone with my instincts.

#54

Now I feel bad as I was just trying to make you feel bad and now maybe you feel bad making me feel bad.

Maybe just get your parents to put on a few more pasties?
