matzoball Report post Posted August 9, 2011 They are building a new shopping complex beside our building in buchanan street - it's gotten so bad I spent the majority of last week working from home! I came back today, and it's so bad that my chair is moving along the floor as I am sitting in it! They just told us there are 4 more weeks of this - I am going to need industrial painkillers and airport grade earplugs at this rate.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah - you just need to eat more chocolate and cakes so you're heavier and hence the chair can't move! Or super-glue under the wheels. Have you tried ear-defenders? I find them pretty good with ear-plugs (they're doing building work on the flats opposite me and seem to love their pneumatic drill! ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
