Return of The Noise

He's back!! And, if it is possible,he is louder than ever! Mr. Noisy down the road has started his pre-dawn broadcasts again, much to our dismay. He is once again dictating the time that the Parker family have to wake up each and every day- a dark and early 05:30.
Our new windows are not proving to be as sound-proof as we had hoped. They do help to soften the blow a little but do not stop him from waking us. We can just about drown him out if we shut out all the fresh air and turn on our noisy fan- which also helps to prevent us from suffocating indoors in the stifling heat which is now building up as Dodoma's Hot Season gets underway!
A noisy fan and closed windows don't really produce a restful atmosphere for us to get back to sleep, so we once again find ourselves losing our evenings, as we have to get to bed early to get enough sleep before the daily wake-up blasts us out of our beds. It looks like we're in for a tiring time in the months ahead- unless anyone has any good suggestions to help???
