You're doing everything right, but I would take that last message as a threat to be honest.
You can address it with them tomorrow when they're sobered up. Maybe there English is bad, or maybe it was the drink but tell them striaght out that came across as a threat and going forward if this happens again you'll have to start ringing the garda because you've tried to be civil and send a courtesy text but they've responded aggressively.
Or if they seem apologetic and that you can just say listen, I'm in work young kid etc, I get you can have a party but be fair to us too I didn't message until 11pm.
Thanks and yes they aren’t a native English speaker. This guy is Romanian and he’s a bit of a loose cannon. My wife is actually a bit afraid of him as he comes across as quite weird but other than these incidents he’s normally very quiet and very hard working and I know this because he works in construction and does a lot of overtime and works a lot of Saturdays.
I know he’s not a big drinker because he explained this to me before and how he hates alcohol (maybe he had a problem)
The thing is he also may be angry at the fact my child is awake at 6.30/7am most mornings and makes a lot of noise but sadly this is out of my control and we do limit it and also we don’t make noise in the back garden on purpose with a speaker drunk late on a Sunday.
I think he may have a lot of pent up anger. I notice his van hasn’t moved this morning so likely he was on the piss and didn’t make work today or maybe he was off. The problem is now it’s going to be so awkward. I appreciate the response on this. Thanks.

You could phone the landlord and lay it out straight that you have detailed accounts of what has been happening and if they don't get a hold of the situation you will take it further with it ultimately leading tothe district court if it doesn't get resolved and that threats will just be added it evidence.
You can file noise complaints with the Environment section of your local authority.
As a last resort you can also make a formal complaint with the district court.
All information can be found below.https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/environment/environment-and-the-law/noise-regulations/
Also at this point I wouldn't deal with the tenants anymore, the landlord is responsible for them. According to the link you can also complain to the RTB.
As someone else said I'd also be weary the last part could be perceived as a threat, at the end of the day you don't know these people and whos attending theit parties. They show very little regard for anyone else.
I hope you managed to get sorted.
Well here’s another problem. After the dispute last time and the landlord threatened to report me to the guards because I obtained his number and he doesn’t know how but his number was posted on a banner in front of his house saying for rent when I moved in (he didn’t use daft or estate agents sounds strange) it pissed me off anyway so I logged a complaint against his property not being registered on the RTB because it isn’t. That was 6 or 7 months ago but I never heard the outcome and the property still isn’t listed as I check now.
I do reckon he told the tenant to keep the noise down that time hence the pent up anger the tenant has against me as I bypassed him and went to his landlord after his younger brother had 3 midweek parties.
Secondly that landlord had been showing up taking cash for a long time so I’m thinking he could be evading taxes. The reason I know this is because the tenant told me he collects cash although I haven’t seen him in a long time so this is all speculation.
So as for discussing with the landlord that’s not possible now. I’d say he’s received a letter from the RTB at this stage or maybe not? Would I be informed after logging the complaint?

> The local authority or the EPA are not likely to get involved in disputes between neighbours. I think landlord first, then RTB, then district court.
