Karaoke this is nearly impossible to get away from? when we viewed the land we bought, there seemed to be none in the area how wrong we were, they were just not playing at the time? there turned out to be two of them, one family have now moved this was the loudest, however the second one is going all day every Sunday and from this I hear terrible renditions of songs from the likes of Celine Dion or Bon Jovi,,, in the area there is now a couple of sound systems, I think they are quite far away but still I hear the loud Bass from them playing the same repetitive two notes all day long. If you wanted to know the level of IQ of your neighbours here, get a decibel meter and measure the sound level coming from them, this would be a great indicator of just how Fecking dumb they really are. It is nearly impossible to find a place here without a Karaoke or sound system and even if you do it will be short lived, just wait 5 minutes and they will appear.
How right you are @DAVE1952. When we bought our land there were only 3 neighbours, none with Harrykokey. Over the years a few more properties have been built and probably all of them have the f***in machines. I brought with me a very good sound system from UK so now, on a Sunday normally, we turn it on Spotify, set to 80s & 90s music, wind up the volume.....and f**k off out for the day.
I strongly agree with the last point - I had a chance of a superb lot overlooking the sea (could even see the Moon from there) at P1000 per m2 but turned it down as there was no local free music.
True - whatever time you view a lot you will never know all the negative potentials. I am concerned how little they think about neighbours - especially some who may be ill inside a nearby house and cannot get any rest. But it takes intelligence to think about our effects on other people. I am especially concerned in YOUR case Dave about the needs of the ELDERLY!
The other day I was reading the results of a scientific research paper, there they had found that the very first few days after birth of a young child are the most dangerous, but being a Scotsman I am not inclined to believe everything I hear and I would suggest it is the last few days of ones life to be the most critical and now I like to get p!ssed every night I would hate to get caught out being sober on my last day on this earth? What about the Children? when their father has a loud sound system they may be subjected to a noise level of 100 decibels plus, surely this must damage their hearing more so than an adult?
When i first started to live here many years ago i used to think that the stupid things people do were down to lack of intelligence but after observing the way people form or deform a queue, drive, park (car or motorbike),play music ear damaging loud or even just walk in the street i can now only think that stupidity is only a small part of it, the main thing is ignorance and total disrespect / disregard for all other people .
On the other hand, if you are the type that enjoys loud Sunday extended family karaoke (3 foot speaker) screaming kids running around, 4 dogs barking, neighbor dogs barking, smell of fish cooking, cone by my house. Note: doesn't bother me anymore.
Strangely enough I did not - even though the nursery rhyme says so. I live in a different world and saw sheep - after seeing the 999th I fell asleep.
