1 July (Part 2) - What a racket
I
have no idea how many people look at Bonkers, there are no visitor count cookies
and certainly no hit counting adverts which make navigation of some similar
sites such a nightmare. It therefore comes as a surprise when readers who I have
never before heard of make contact and say they have been checking up on Bonkers
regularly for a very long time.
Surprising but welcome.
There have been three such messages in the past 24 hours. One came from the
western extremity of the borough and tells how no one living near Welling’s
Westwood Lane car park has been able to get a decent night’s sleep recently.
Nothing to do with the excessively hot weather but a faulty loudspeaker (or
amplifier), - the
white blob beneath the CCTV camera in the associated photo.
Welling is not on my regular itinerary but I had an excuse to visit Orchard
Fencing in connection with
my vandalised fence, so Westwood Lane was not much of a detour.
The noise was easily heard over the general hubbub and a passing train, so it is not just a trivial annoyance.
For how long will Bexley Council allow nearby residents to suffer?
Constant noise in Welling. Keep the volume down!
