Some years ago we were moored in Hythe Marina village, after a long heated day repairing one engine ( CAT3208) it was time for a start up, so I did, straight out on to his balcony a resident shouted DO YOU KNOW WHAT F--------G time it is, I looked at my watch and replied, yes about 1145 at night!.

I couldn't possibly this time. But the next time Suzanne starts telling tales out of school (or texts me West Ham results only when they lose!), then I'll tell all. So Suzanne, be afraid - be VERY afraid!!! ;-)

Re: Noisy neighbours - Human Rights Violation
Just found this on MSN.CO.UK
COURT RULES A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP IS A HUMAN RIGHT
A UK anti-noise group calling for a good night's sleep to be regarded as a human right has won a key European Court of Human Rights case. The ruling could lead to a reduction in overnight flights at UK airports. The European Court of Human Rights says overnight flights at Heathrow airport in West London violated residents' basic human rights. The UK government, against which the case had been brought, will now have to consider the whole question of flights at Heathrow between 11.30pm and 6am. The case had been brought against the Department of Transport by eight residents living near Heathrow each of whom are members of the anti-noise group HACAN ClearSkies. Celebrating news of the result in London, Richmond Park Liberal MP Jenny Tonge said: "This is wonderful news. This has been a very long fight and it is a step in the right direction." A Department of Transport spokesman said: "The Government will study the judgment carefully before considering what steps it will take, and cannot comment further on the case at present." The European Court of Human Rights, which heard the case in May 2000, accepted that it was the right of residents to have a good night's sleep. The court had invited the Department of Transport to make a case for night flying on economic grounds. However the court said there had been a violation of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, and that the rights of the eight applicants had not been properly recognised by the UK Government. The ruling clears the way for other challenges to night flights, not only at British airports but at airports throughout Europe. The ruling does not oblige the British Government to ban or curtail overnight flying at Heathrow, but the Government does have a strong record in implementing decisions of the court.

Re: Noisy neighbours - Human Rights Violation
Thanks for that Barry. I now have a new pastime. Sitting on the back of my boat, G&T in hand, watching the EU officials serving writs on the seagulls over Brighton.

Very tasty Peter - if you ever feel the need for a real engine (as in V8) then I've got one attached to a TR7 DHC you can have for less than a years pontton mooring on the South Coast!

Re: Noisy neighbours - Human Rights Violation
I believe that most of the members of the anti-Heathrow association (HACAN) moved into the area after the airport was open. Same applies to those who complain about the Twickenham Rugby crowds and managed to get the bars closed immediately matches finished.
I moved here only 22 years ago and consider that I have no right to complain about aircraft at night or the rugby crowd (unless anyone tries to play soccer there).
These "incomers" should move out again and so should those living alongside marinas, if they don't like it.
