Saturday 22 November: 04:14 am



We would not have this amount of traffic at 04:00 in the morning were it not for the presence of Mango's. At the end of the clip there is some classic pointless beeping of car horns of the kind we are all too familiar with.

What this proves to me is that even if there are quieter weekends from time to time, as long as Mango's is there we will be exposed to this nonsense.

Mangos hooligans woke me up as usual on Saturday night around this time. Glad that someone got it on video.

The weekend of the 21st/22nd was very noisy on both Friday and Saturday. On Friday at about 11:00pm there was a group of people drinking direct outside our flat to the point of banging their bag of bottles against our front door. They moved 6 feet down the pavement when we request they leave, and continued to be noisy while they chugged their alcohol before moving on to Mango's. As usual we were jolted from sleep on both nights between 3am and 4:30am to shouting, car horns, racing cars and the like.

Great work with the video and 4 Oct pictures. We tried to take photos before and got threatened with people bounding on our door.

Any kind of video footage has got to help us. If nothing else, a mobile phone camera will at least pick up the sound. Sorry to hear about you getting threatened. This is why we need a permanent solution to this problem.

Friday 28th November I was woken up from 2.15am onwards with a group of men shouting and swearing. One man was shouting down the street that he wanted a fight. This persisted until 2.45am at which time I could see police lights and an Asian man shouting “Get in the car” repeatedly in order to warn his group of mates of the police presence. The disturbance continued from 3am onwards when the rest of the mango’s patrons poured out of the club with the usual shouting, car horns, stereos and speeding. One person was throwing up right outside Artichoke Hill Flat 34 and I could hear their retching from a couple of doors down. Finally got to sleep at around 3.45!

Same down here. I could hear the 'get in the car' carry on. Someone in our block remonstrated with one carload of Mango's patrons. This was around 02:30. My wife saw the police around 02:45 approx. What will tonight bring?
