Yes I abu to post it here but I’ve ran out of patience.

My neighbours have chickens and that’s cool I love chickens nice fresh eggs.

But they have a fucking cockerel and it starts around 3am every 10 sodding minutes or at least feels like it stops around 7am for a nap I suspect and then strikes up again. Now the day time is bad enough but I’ve not slept so bad even when the children were babies.

we went away two weeks ago and none of us including the children got up much before 10am finally being able to sleep the first couple Of days, bliss, apart from missing some holiday time.

Even with the windows closed its doodledoo could wake the dead. Council are useless. Neighbour knows it’s a pain as someone else has reported and I have commented politely about certainly not needing an alarm clock since they got him as it’s impossible to sleep though. No fucks given by them.

I recommend thick curtains to absorb the sound.

We already have two pairs up one of is black out thermal and one’s a thick curtain in front of that.

You can even hear him in the bathroom at the front of the house. Bedrooms are the back of the house.
