Glad to be at work today...

One of our neighbours is having some work done on their garage and the noise is quite incredible. We're all detached houses as well, so it's not as if we have vibrations coming through an adjoining wall; we're a hundred yards away but it still sounds like someone is demolishing an industrial unit in our kitchen.
I think they're having it converted to use as an annex, (probably to make money through AirBnB, as that seems to be what everyone else in Suffolk is doing), so they're keeping the main part of the structure but adding to it, and altering what is already there. So from 7.30 this morning we had an angle grinder, a cement mixer and some kind of Bond-villain-esque-size drill going off together, and a cloud of brick dust wafting through the garden making it look like we'd been planted in the middle of a Saharan storm.
How on Earth people can have extensive work done on their homes that goes on for months is beyond me. After an hour this morning I was sick of the whole thing and ready to complain to the council.
