The kids playing out around here can't do so without making the most hideous din, it's one long continuous stream of shouting, screeching (literally) and grunting like gorillas. I'm not talking toddlers either, anything up to like fourteen or more??
Yesterday I hear another noise added to it, turns out one of these kids has acquired a WHISTLE! (god help us) It was constant for hours last night and again this morning. My head is mashed. It's been like getting tasered in the head. Defo need to get my headphones on.
When I was a kid, that kind of racket was totally off-limits, you'd have got a hiding. I was pretty much silent anyway, I don't understand why kids now seem to have no restraint whatsoever...
I was thinking as well how other noises upset me a lot
Like supermarket music playing in the background.. I find that really complex and overwhelming sometimes espech when there's so much noise from people.
I noticed this yesterday.
Yeah, because the music coming through the tannoy is rarely something you'd actually choose to listen to either so a double assault! There's a lot going on in the supermarket senses-wise. I see people walking about with big chunky headphones on sometimes, I'd feel too paranoid and self-conscious to do that!
