Past lot of neighbours had three kids. Nowhere was the noise at this level.
When my client comes to the house. He is partially deaf. He can barely hear what i am saying to him. Yet he can clearly hear the baby next door crying for 20 mins. He asked me if she was being abused. I don't think she is. But for a nearly deaf man to ask is concerning.
I am fantastic at compartmentalising and I can ignore most noise and tune it out. This is ridiculous though. Non stop.
You can't relax and just enjoy being in your room. It's also affecting the mental health of my DH and DS.
THAT noisy?! I agree then, something needs to be done. A difficult one but agree, speak to either the council or perhaps environmental health. If it's that bad there has to be something you can do, or rather something someone else can do.MSE-ing since 20070 -

Sending love and hugs to Aesop and anyone else who would like or needs one.
Not much happening here this month, just a small Ebay sale to add £6.19 after fees/postage.
Keep up the great work everyone :j

I might need some matched betting tips cufc_mike. You seem to make a good amount!
Feel free to drop me a PM - would be happy to help if I canDid start doing a blog...I'm hopeless at blogs, so it didn't last long. I'll update it every once in a while no doubt, but it's not an ongoing thing:

I can understand why it might terrify. I am used to gambling and would take about 5 minutes per bet when I first started matched betting, so I can fully understand why it might take some people 15-20 minutes double checking everything. I now spend about 1 minute max putting a bet on. It does get easier over time, and you don't need any sport/betting knowledge. So long as you are relatively good with numbers and can follow instructions, you really can't go wrong.
Happy to help anybody who wants to dip their toes. The site I use offers a free trial for a few days.
Side note: - anybody else having issues with random characters appearing instead of special characters like the apostrophe?
My Sunday/Monday MB'ing total is £56.11.0 -
Tips from Saturday and yesterday.......£13.50. :j
Also got another £1 amazon from instagc. Seems I have earnt enough on there now to unlock the paypal payment feature.
This only pays in $ but is quicker to reach target.
Thinking of using my payments to start putting towards my overpayment of the mortgage pot. Not paying anything off till I have at least £500 as it then brings the monthly payment down. I know this doesnt knock any time off the mortgage but with me soon dropping a day at work, less outgoings are more important to me at the moment.
I am going to put my mortgage total in my signature to keep me motivated.
I have 7 years left but am hoping I can knock this down to 5.Make £10 a Day Feb .....£75.... March... £65......April...£90.....May £20.....June £35.......July £600 -
Hello everyone - I'd like to join in this month please, and as I have already done it, I'd like to say a target of £20 a day (if that makes sense!) I was last here in November last year. So I have been working on getting extra money in this month and this is what I have got so far:
£1.06 - Qmee pay out
£28 - TopCashback
£6 facebook sales
£1.11 - roadkill!
£48 car boot sale last Sunday.
£481 payout from bank after a complaint from me of mistreatment after bereavement
£300 payout from 2nd bank after complaint from me re mistreatment in aftermath of bereavement.
The above 2 complaints were in part inspired by Aesop who I think I remember made a claim about a bank sending someone else's letter by mistake and an amount was due in connection with data protection? Both my complaints included (but weren't only about) receiving correspondence in the name of my best friend/business partner who had died some months ago.
I have just a couple of things listed on eBay and hope to add more next month when I have time.
Total so far for April: £862.170 -
Good for you doing a car boot sale, Mrs Cautious:T:beer:. I've chickened out so far this season because the weather has been so cold and wet. The one I like best and find the most profitable is held on a sloping field. The pitch is relatively flat but getting to it across the field definitely isn't:eek:. The approach is like a quagmire in bad weather. I remember one week when a local farmer was pulling sellers' fully-laden cars up the slope with a tractor:eek:
I've bitten the bullet and decided I can't dilly dally any longer and am all set to do my first of the year on Sunday. Have spent most of yesterday and this morning grovelling in the sheds finding suitable stuff to sell and clearing the cobwebs and dust from a winter of storage.
All I have to add to my total since I last posted is:- £10 More vouchers at Morrisons
- £2.71 divi spent at Co-op
- £5 lodged in a hedgerow down an isolated footpath
- £6.33 from 2 books sold on Amazon
That adds up to a welcome £24.04:j but it doesn't take me anywhere near my total this month. Let's hope the sun shines for the car boot on Sunday and brings the buyers out in force;)0 -

We are definitely following the same lines... I want to go part time and also pay down the mortgage!
I am struggling to get on with instagc - any tips? Do you just play the videos? I find each time I play them they just stop quite soon so I never make much unless I keep checking it all the time. Maybe it's just me... I put my efforts into Swagbucks instead at the moment.2025 decluttering: 3,848🌟🥉🌟💐🏅🏅🌟🥈🏅🌟🏅💐💎🌟🏅🏆🌟🏅

Not too much going on here - just made another £40 or so MB. Am trying to pick up my different survey sites again and do bits and pieces on them all, but am saving cashing out until 1 May.
Trying to get back to some sort of normality... baby is back to nursery and I am back to full time work and the usual of trying to figure out how to pack everything into my life.2025 decluttering: 3,848🌟🥉🌟💐🏅🏅🌟🥈🏅🌟🏅💐💎🌟🏅🏆🌟🏅
