Title: Does anyone have a cure for church bells?
Post by: Chris (Liverpool Boys) on May 09, 2004, 09:19:20 am
Good morning everyone. There is reason I am up at 8am on a SUnday morning and have been for 2 hours. The BLOODY CHURCH BELLS.

Just wondered if anyone has a spare rpg or anti aircraft lissile ~I could borrow to sort them out.

Any help appreciated

Having just watched the LM prequal on UK Motors, I'm also concerned about sleep this year. Given that it would be unsportsman like  to use Chris's suggested methods, some sort of acoustic chamber will need to be constructed inside my tent to avoid that Panoz disturbing my slumber every 4 minutes! Any ideas? This of couse in addition to the earplugs, noise cancelling headphones and couple of bottles of wine routine...

Monsieur le toad

Surely there is no better alarm clock on a Saturday morning than pre race warm up when the Panoz and awesome Corvettes blat out of the Porsche Curves and raise all the Maison Blanche residents from their dreamy slumbers. It's what it's all about!

Just been watching the pre-qual stuff on TV last night. Did that diesel sound funny to you?

Yes - sounds odd, and all that black smoke as well - all in the interest of a bit of torque and a few extra laps between pit stops...

How do you think the 7 litre Merc powered Zonda might sound on Sunday morning (if it's still going!?)...

Chris - you're not seriously suggesting that you don't attend Mass on a Sunday morning are you? Sinner

Mr Toad - There's only two things the Morgan has more chance of beating at Le Mans.... one is your motorhome and the other is the Zonda.
If it's still running on Sunday morning I'll bare me arse in Woolworths window.

Do we get to choose which branch of Woolworths Matt?

You never know, they might pull it out of the pits for a few turns on Sun pm!

By which time, both you and I will be so banjaxed, neither of us will give a rats ass.

I made my perhaps ill-advised 'throw-down' assuming that Woolies had gone out of business!

I may have to give this some serious "onion"....

Fair play, but I think you should know that Woolies have provided all the key kit to our team for many years now - flasks, sandwick boxes, camping chairs with pockets for I -spy books and fishing line etc etc!!!

I would contact Morgan as I believe someone said that the Aero8 Looks like a church they might be able to shed some light on the matter.

Church?
The one I had a look at looked more like a choirboys arse.
Which is no bad thing I suppose, but it makes you wonder what they're getting up to in the design office at Malvern.
Have you seen the new TVR Vestry? and the new BMW Undropped Bollocks looks fantastic...

Bloody C of E and their sectarian turmoil! Many a sunday morning hangover has been exacerbated by this ungodly racket. You don't get Shi'ites shattering sheet glass in the shithouse or Bhuddists breaking wind at the breakfast bar, so why the C of E thinks it's okay to disturb the peace on a sunday morning, heaven alone knows.

When I get my membership card and lapel badge back from the League of Agnostics, I'll do something about it (if I can be bothered).

Live on a modern housing estate - how many housing estates built in the last 30 years - or the last 100 for that matter - have a church as part of the development?

Or a garden and any privacy for that matter.

In reply to Mr. Zarse the bloody Muslims would wake me up with their call to prayer at sunrise every morning in Saudi, so it's not just here ;D

Unfortunately a modern house doe not guarantee relief from the campanologists in all cases. Pretzel towers is only 5 years old and on a small estate but no more that 20 yards from the end of my back garden is a Baptist chapel. How quaint I thought.

Not only are Sunday morning slumbers rudely interrupted, but Saturdays when there's a wedding, Friday evening for bell ringing practice. Earplugs are the only answer.

Esmerelda, Esmerelda...........

I can sympathise Pretzel with a similarly aged gaff. Small development close to centre of small market town (albeit it with BIG motorsport heritage!!), forgotten about tha darned bells. Not just restricted to Saturdays for weddings (mugs!!!) or Sunday bible bashing, but also during the week for bell ringing bleedin' practise!! I ask ya!

And to top it all, we're not far from the town memorial garden where the annual fogey-fest season of Sunday afternoon brass band bollocks is nearly upon us again. And the old silver hairs have the afrontery to complain about the noise coming from my Pug .. don't they like "Dream Theater" for heaven's sake? What is the world coming to?

Pah! Humbug etc......

 ;D

Ok some of you can probably help me in my sleeping disorder.

One complete week per year, in early june, I can't sleep because or stupid junkies running rodeos and burns on a field near the international Le Mans airport...

... what's the best way to stop them? Are nails spread on the track efficient enought to stop them ????

the wife used to bell ring.

Go into the bell tower, pull the rope(s) like f*** and let go, you must let go as you will end up in the bell tower with a bell end (ha ha ha) .

anyway, that should send the rope up and wrap around the wheel, if not, grease the furry pull thingy, she did tell me the name, or cut the ropes.

 ;)

then book your place with the devil

you could exploit your appreciating asset and move. Come and live in cheshire where the market starts at 5.30 am and farmers leave their tractors just out of sight of sight on your favourite bend

yours impailed on a tractor.
