TINNITUS!!!! Keith Alias 'Thread Stopper'

Anyone, young or old, whinging to the effect that 'it's not fair!' That irritates me. Snoring, sniffing, biting nails, smacking lips, clearing throats, sloppy eaters, metal on metal (like fork and knife). These make me instantly boiling angry. WHY?! very strange Abigail

interesting answers but have you thought that if you didn't hear all these sound what it would be like i didn't realise that until i had my hearing aid that i missed all of nature's sounds like the bird all singing think about it. howard

The motor bikes that race up and down the cycleway close to my home . . . . . the noise gets on my b****y nerves. It's like living next to a race track some days.

How I agree about parents hurling abuse in public.If they feel it apprpriate to behave like that in public,what must the poor children endure in public.Is it any wonder that paedophiles have such an easy time?

Ducks can be very annoying at night too. I lived on a houseboat for 6 months, and had ducks round the boat all night, quack, quack, quack. Sylvia xxx

I can't stand the sound of people cracking their knuckles - makes me cringe!

Parents screaming abuse at their children in public places. Gwynne

Cutlery scraping on the plate makes me go cold. Dianne

That awful squishy thuddy sound when i am bashing my head against the brick wall that stops me finding out where my greatgrandad came from, in Antwerp and when he made his way to England to start the family off. Bob

Ros haha im confusletated today.... Elaine x (the anti polystyrene one )

LOL I have a few. 1.people smacking there lips when eating. 2.people scraping there teeth across the folk when eating. 3. people who eat way to fast and then moan that they didn't enjoy it. 4.When someones throat is so dry you can here the food or drink go down. 5. when someone grinds there teeth when they are asleep. think that's it (for now) LOL :-)

Elaine, wrong Elaine!! Know what you mean about polystyrene packing. Want to know what 'kerbs' is Ros.

Ros Polystyrene is that white plastic stuff used to pack items in boxes. It breaks up easily....and makes a horrible squeeking noise when pulled out of boxes....oooh me teef are on edge.... SNORING....now dont get me started on that..... Elaine x

Elaine, forgive my ignorance, but what is that. Ros

Mine is next door neighbours kids playing 'kerbs' under my window!

Most annoying, and husband does it, is sniffing. GET YOURSELF A TISSUE.

Neighbours' children shouting and screaming for hours on end Police helicopters circling overhead during the night Booming bass notes from in-car sound systems Pneumatic drills digging up roads CB >|<

Yes, this nice weather brings out all these noises - a-social people with loud radios in their cars, etc. etc. but to me the moped really is the worst of all. What about cats looking for a mate? Another time of the year pasttime! Sylvia xxx

Really loud music(boom boom) either from houses/flats or open car windows. Sue
