It sounds like a war-zone, doesn't it? It also sounds like it would if I followed Cro's advice and started broadcasting the call to prayer from loud-speakers on the roof - just like they do every day in Baghdad.
I'm fed up with it and want to slash my wrists after 42 seconds of it so God knows how you are feeling Tom ! I think that I'd rather eat my own liver with a rusty spoon !
The gulls I could deal with (I actually quite like them), but that alarm would drive me barking mad. Don't know if it's the same in Bath as London Tom, but they do have noise pollution bylaws there. I had to call when a car alarm went on for hours one weekend when we lived there. Not sure what they did, but the alarm shut down soon after I called.
So you could deal with the gulls? Take a break in the Hilton, Bath, in the next month and then say that. London might have medieval by-laws, now that the Red Kites and rubbish pits have gone.
I have sent the above video to the owner, who is now calling himself a project manager, but at least he responded to it tonight. He says that a security company visits the site every day. Do you believe that??? I think I would withold some money from that company if I were him, if only to pay out for the inconvenience.

ReplyDeleteThat is just nasty noise. I'd be moving - or investing in some ear plugs for myself and some dynamite for the shithawks.
ReplyDeletePhone the cops, and tell them you've just seen a murder taking place at the address of the ALARM. They might be there by Thursday!
ReplyDeleteI hear that kind of sound in my head all the time AND I AM FINE!*!**
ReplyDeleteWell it's gone 9 this monday morning and still howling away. I am going to miss it when it goes.... HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'd have lost my mind forever, by now.
ReplyDeleteUPDATE - It was turned off at 10.30 pm this monday morning. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am missing it - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteThat is a screaming awful noise. I could only do 31 seconds.
ReplyDeleteNormally, that's all I can manage.
DeleteI had an ear infection once and I had a ringing noise in my head just like that for a couple of days.
ReplyDeletetinitis tinutus tinantus tinnittus itinnitass - well, it must be a nasty thing.
