Will try and find one to borrow and likely won't happen for an age anyway, but by then I should have the iso pads and stuff to help.

No. I have a set of isolation pads on order already though.
Since the bookcases went in behind me I've filled them with sleeping bags, tents, bivvys and some books (obvs) and it has either helped or I'm imagining it has helped so that's a plus.
I might have a play with blocking the ports but what I'd really like to do is somehow measure the frequency response over a range and see where the peaks are. Because if you're not testing you're just guessing.
Is there any free shit I could use on my PC that would do frequency sweeps or something to see where the peaks and troughs are? I guess the software would exist - that's probably the easy part but I don't have a mic (I could use headphones but I imagine that's a pretty shit solution). Maybe I could borrow a set off a muso I know. Hmm.
