ha ! ha ha !! hahahahahaa !!!! the landlord did indeed arrange the work, he's redoing the appart before renting it out to someone new (who will probably make a lot of noise.

) for probably double what the previous tenant paid. but, him, tell us how long the work will last ??? it is to laugh ! the landlord is an odious parasitic leech who looks at his tenants and sees stacks of money !! he only cares about our rent checks, not about our comfort.

THANK YOU !!! that's precisely what i think !!!! i suppose it wouldn't be quite so bad if they bothered to CLOSE THE WINDOWS over there, but nooooo....

but seriously, if they are here this weekend again, i seriously want to call the police, this is outrageous. and i'm pretty sure it's illegal, too.

I like what I hear about Switzerland being strict on what residents can do - although people here tend to disparage the idea as being too overbearing. But I'd prefer having clear guidelines about what is acceptable. If people want to make a racket, they should live with people of similar inclinations, and leave the rest of us alone in quiet neighbourhoods.

i agree, put all the noisy people together. and technically, we do have noise laws here too, i believe ; i think you're not allowed to make noise after a certain hour, or weekends, and such. i just now was doing a bit of googling and discovered that 5 february 2010 there will be an international conference about "quiet zones". i think i should look into this.
