Fortunately, david18xx, you're right.

But if you live in a unit and want to throw a party, how about you simply let any neighbours who are likely to be, even slightly inconvenienced, know well ahead of time so they are expecting it and make other arrangements if they wish. Or if you want to hang a picture or 16, the same common courtesy would apply.

And if you do live in a unit, like me (a cheaply built one where noise is easily transmitted) there are probably 20 or 30 other households living within earshot. Spare a thought for them.
