Loud noises keeping my grandson awake

Options
Okay, who can I sue, or claim compensation from for the loud rumbling banging noises that are keeping my 5 year old grandson awake because he is terrified.

Not only loud bangs but flashing lights about 3 or 4 seconds before the bangs.

Also there is the sound of running water.

    Ooooohhh!! That's the elephants falling out of bed and shaking the lights and bursting the pipes. I suggest you sue the heavenly zoo keeper :D
    I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.

    I don't know but when you find out please let me know as the same thing happen to this household last night. I have been extremely tired and cranky today, I am sure there must be someone I can blame.

    No it's not. It's the angels having a football match and one team score and the crowd roar and the press start taking pictures. Then the winning team shake a bottle of champagne and open and spray the crowd with it! Gawd, didn't your parents teach you anything!

    Wish I'd been born on your planet. Mine just seems dull in comparison. :rotfl::rotfl:

    Probably the Queen, but only if they were very very frightening.

    Anyhoo - enough of the complaints, you're getting a free car wash!
