NO, not from our show, just a basic rant about road works as I am feeling fed up with them at the moment.:frown:
There are major road works going on all around my area at the moment, including literally over my back fence! They have been going on for several months now and while most of the stuff directly behind me has almost finished we still have all the problems from works further away.
Vibrating rollers…. It is like living in a permanent Magnitude 3 earthquake. There is the continuous rumbling low frequency noise for hour after hour with doors, windows and anything not nailed down rattling away.
BLEEPERS!!!...not Foggy’s, the reversing bleepers on every %^^&ing vehicle (and I sometimes think on every person…note I did not say “worker”) I know what they are for but do you have to hear them 3 suburbs away??!!
I reckon it must defeat the purpose having them all going all the time. (Query- do road construction vehicles EVER go forward????) I would think no bleepers but the occasional scream of an idiot going under the tracks of a clearly visible house sized bulldozer would act as a better deterrent.
There is much more but just writing it down is too annoying. Nothing I can do about it but I needed to rant, been going on too long and I am just FED UP!! :devilish:
