Being away really brought back how noisy a street we live in  :-\

I went to Arco some time ago and bought a pair of ear-defenders. They look pretty daft (I tell myself that they look like headphones...) but I can put them on anytime I'm bothered by dogs/radios/drilling/leaf-blowers (grrrr) etc and the world becomes a silent place. Bliss. The ones I bought are by Peltor (Optime II). Not cheap at about £18 now but I wouldn't be without them. Earplugs are OK up to a point but are a bit of a faff and can irritate ears after a while. Screwfix also stock them. What price peace and quiet eh?

I've got a good set of noise cancelling headphones, but doubt it would have cancelled the noise council made! Actually can't remember last time they cleaned our drains.

Good to read all the replies. Noise totally does me in. I am peri. I cant stand noise or light.

Some noise feels like physical pain!

Hate excessive noise! Must be turning into grumpy old grandmother! Heaven help me in my later years if I'm like that now. Of course maybe I'll become deaf in my old age.

The noises I do like are Himself breathing gently through the night and the birds singing in the day light  ;)

Our static caravan is nice and peaceful .... until next door cuts his grass with the world's LOUDEST petrol mower, or the people opposite cut a patch of grass the size of Wimbledon Centre Court with a lawn-mower the size of a postage stamp!  Our site-owners cut the grass regularly (we bought a mower and strimmer when we got the caravan, and have never had to use them!), so why these people have to cut their bits more often I do not know!!

The site has awards for how tidy it is kept (and the David Bellamy Gold Award for conservation) - gardening is encouraged!  I don't mind the gardening - I just wish they'd use more appropriate equipment!!!
