You have to keep a log of all incidents for 3 minths...yees 3 months !! Then if SDC decide to take action or prosecute it will be registered against your proerty that you have a dispute with neighbours - this may well affect selling price if you decide to move at any point. I have had problems in the past which went on for 6 minths. 5 Police call outs when it was 4 in the morning and out of control, then told to keep a flamin' diary for another 3. Ended up having a "strong word" in their shell like and never heard a peep again...LOL
