I understand that living inner city, as I do, means noise. But some of it is so offensive and unwarranted that it beggars belief. Sitting in the most beautiful garden restaurant at 8am for b/f. Yes, we are surrounded by roads and that means cars and THAT means offensive mechanical noise. But we can call that 'unavoidable' within our normal expectations of how to live. But when, at 8.01 in this ambient setting, a chap starts his job and it is blowing leaves from one spot to another with a leaf blower. I'm sorry, but this is unfuckingbelievable.
We have a busker who frequently begs outside our apartment building. Busker, even when dreadful, is one thing. Electrified and banging an appalling home made drum is quite another. As for the people who think they can take ghetto blasters down to the lake and invade everybody's space with them.
I'm looking forward to reading this.
