ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

There's building work right outside my bedroom window from 7:30am until 6pm. I can't do anything about it, and I can't have double glazing installed because I'm renting the room. It SUCKS. I can even hear it with earplugs. ARGH!!!!! And it's even on a Saturday! :frown:

What can I do? I'm really tempted to go break the drill so I can have a lie in one day. My work and entire life is really suffering cos of this :frown:

I dont think there is much you can do but maybe go stay at a mates and family members house for a while so you can get some work done maybe?

the work wont be going on for long, if its council work (i.e. on teh roads etc) you can see when it'll be done and complain that its disrupted your life

buy some ear plugs?

any chance you can make a formal complaint to the council?

I've got my living room for work. It's...erm...cosy. Desk, small sofa (no, not big enough to sleep on :rolleyes:

), not much else.

I could sleep over at my boyfriends...he's miles away from lectures though... So I'd have to get up early anyway! Lol. I'll try that though.

And i take it you will be getting lots of sleep at your boyfriends.. :rolleyes:

This time next year!!! :frown:

Although the drill might stop soon. They're knocking a building down then rebuilding it and doing a basement thingie. It's been going on all summer...

Double buggeration

Sleeping pills over the counter, they really do work.

Have you tried wax earplugs? For me, they block EVERYTHING out. Those plasticy or foamy ones don't do anything but the wax ones do - you can get them from boots.
