    Don't think the thought hadn't crossed my mind @B3. Just when l think it's quieting down,  it's starts up again.  Hopefully by midnight they'll have run out of steam, although to be fair l had much later nights than that "when l was young(er)".

    Karma?
    Have you got ear plugs?
    Can you make a lot if noise when they're sleeping it off tomorrow morning. 
    Surely you have some shelves to put up?
    I'd drill holes in the wall anyway. You can always fill them in later👺

    Sorry @B3 that's far too subtle for me.
    The noise finished around midnight,  but funnily enough l can hear a neighbour getting out his lawnmower ready to fire it up at a more reasonable time. I bet there's some thick heads in that house this morning...

    I suggested it a few pages back @AnniD😊
    Thick heads in both senses of the word.

    I'm just waiting for the lawnmowers, drills etc. to start up 😁.
    It's lovely and peaceful here at the moment. 
    Better find something else to get curmudgeonly about ...

    So...mentioned this before and it still rankles as it's still spreading like an epidemic. Why start a sentence with 'so'...? It's like some form of meme - like 'like' was/is..

    Thinking time, I suppose. Like um.  Makes some sense when a sentence is spoken, but pretty redundant in a written sentence.

    It's the same as everyone referring to themselves as 'you' now. I heard some bloke talking about catching the 'rona and saying things like "So you had a really bad fever and you were shiverin all the time and you couldn't smell anythin". Really? I hadn't noticed any of that?
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Can’t seeing him saying ‘one has bad fever etc.’
