Sorry to hear that.
Unfortunately the Corpo can house anyone there as they have that right, although I would have thought it would have went to locals.

If you knew a local councillor, or someone that does, maybe they can exert pressure on the corporation to move you.

On the other hand maybe when things settle down they may turn out to be ok.

Or they will move the 300 that are being evicted in laugh

If it was me I would try calling around to them with a basket of homemade scones or something....try and befriend them...and then when the noise gets too much at least they might like/respect you enough to quieten down.

Vinny is right....a local TD/councillor might help too.

confused What is dale farm?

We can't choose our neighbours unfortunately. In private estates we have no say who buys the house next door, it's pot luck. Is it not the same way in Corporation houses?

am not sure what her problem is as i said she should get some ear plugs to drown out the sound and at the same time she should mind her own business...sounds like shes a bit of a snob living in social housing of all places rolling on the floor laughing if she doesn't like it she knows what she can do...its put up or shut up...The whole anti traveller thing is rearing its head now toosigh

BellaX: You in bad form

No one said anything that was anti travellers.

I was under the impression that they were rehoused by the council and asked how that happen so quickly but was pointed out they could have bought the house.
