Are you really being dictated to by your daughter or have i misunderstood this post?

She goes to download every year and the tickets are stupid prices plus this year Metallica are playing 2 sets and I’m really tempted to go with her.

It actually worked out cheaper when we moved out break back 1 week

Ah, but the Bible is the ‘word of the lord’, which must be true as some bloke told us it was and he was a religious ‘man of faith’.

I was watching a series on the Bible recently and it was very interesting to see how many of the stories were debunked

Someone on our street has wind-chimes on their house or something, all day every day I can routinely hear the high-pitched clanging, even from my back room. Why the hell would you want that infernal racket on your house?? I'm sorely tempted to go out under cover of darkness and cut them down.

We have been given 3 sets of wind chimes over the years, each one is lovely. We live in the NE of England for heavens sake though. It would be like a full orchestra for 3/4 of the year :oops:. I have 2 hung up in the garage, one in the shed. Just out of the way so that you hear a gentle melody when you brush past them, not in the way enough to be an irritation.

Having them outside, constantly chiming is selfish. Methinks a midnight walk with a pair of scissors is required :ROFLMAO:

Fortunately, the neighbours that lived opposite moved a few years ago and took it with them, a massive flagpole. When it was windy it was like living down by the marina. A constant clanging of the flag rope against the metal pole. Everyone on the street was glad to see it go.

We have a long running family feud a few doors up the street after the guy at No.7 got seriously peeved about the rattling flagpole at No.8 and so went round one night and cut it down with an angle grinder.

The noise it made was unholy. But the feud is brilliant. Petty stuff like No.8 lighting the barbecue and chucking smoke chips on it when No.7 has the washing out. It’s great viewing ?
