Hi Steve

THANKS for putting my neighbour problems in perspective ... I really can't imagine how awful  it must have been putting up with yours for the length of time you did!

Now confession time - I have my radio on at volume 2 (the volume controls run 0 - 10).  My neighbours still hear it (and my central heating coming on, the blender I use in the kitchen, etc).  All of which strikes me as being somewhat unusual ... 

Have been in touch with a most helpful Technical Director of a radio manufacturing company who's said you can download a decibel rating app on smart phones.  I'll do that and try to work out exactly what's going on.

Thanks indizine.

I only have my radio on low ... but I'm seeking to check whether what I and Environmental Health (our local authority noise control people, to whom I referred myself and my noise) regard as a perfectly acceptable volume is on par with other people's usage of their radios. 

Would be grateful for any input ...

   If you'll be so kind ....

This isn't a business request at all ... would like to do a completely unscientific poll on the volume controls (0 - 10) you set your radio(s) at, when you're listening considerately to the radio inside your own home.  I'll confess what my settings are after any replies!

Would be grateful for any information you can provide about your own listening habits.  I'm trying to persuade my (relatively new)neighbours I'm behaving with due consideration; at present, they doubt it.   

"So good news, pre election propaganda, or too little too late?"

Welcome at any time.

A lot of the companies seem to be from outside the UK though.  How could they be prosecuted?

CONGRATS!

I'm mean ... I never tip.  I feel a genuine expression of thanks should be my contribution ... and the employer should pay staff properly!

Don't we all "interpret" any "official" festival as we wish and as circumstances dictate???  I like reminders like these but don't always choose to act on them   

Am delighted for you Sharpink.

And hoping so fervently, Dreamraven, that you've said goodbye to the dratted weed forever.  

All best wishes .... 

Good luck to your friend.  I'd happily vote Green if the Greens stood in my constituency ... but as I said, it's a safe Tory seat and it doesn't matter how the minority vote.
