My sympathies too. We had very noisy builders next door for 7 months. One radio blasting out radio 1/2 and another in the annex at the end of the garden with radio 4. Plus one of the builders had a very limited vocabulary - every other word was f***. We would occasionally ask them to turn it down, which they did and then 10 minutes later turn it up even louder. Then there was the uncovered skip withrubbish blowing over the street. We should have complained to the owners but never did. Rant over!
Last weekend, in Rutland, the first statue in Britain of the late Elizabeth II was unveiled.
