Re: It must be half term!

Clunk, clunk, clunk is annoying - but kids do that sort of thing - they get the fun, not the annoyance.
Try to chill - it's only for lif .
Or, as my Dad might have put it, "There's plenty in the churchyard would like to hear it"

How about some loud music of the Des O`Connor vintage? Apparently playing deeply uncool music keeps the pests away.

Well I went out to get away from it, but the Town is full of children & Parents pulling their hair out............so I returned home & guess what the little darling now has a friend to play with, so I think I may take one of the Dogs out for a walk!
Never mind.

I'm sure I probably annoyed the neighbors when I was little too, but now that I'm a grumpy old cat lady the screaming does get on my nerves after a while....

It the monotony they gets to people thud thud thud....But can't blame people for not letting their kids out to be honest so many horrible stories about.
The kids are more than likely bored stupid.

Try and smile your way through its.
