NOISY NEIGHBOURS?

WE ALL HATE THEM but sometimes they have to rest too. Cayton Village Campsite is a nice place to stay but unfortunately it does have an adjacent construction site and building will continue for some weeks. All that our hosts can do about it is to direct campers to quieter areas and this they seem to do. The noise disturbance is, however, intermittent, not constant, and construction workers are a sensible lot generally aiming to finish work by 4.30pm and, if they can help it, hardly ever work at weekends. Most annoying is the “beep, beep, beep, beep” from plant moving around the construction site. A bit like the dustbin lorry that reverses along the street at 5am to empty the basura under your hotel bedroom window in Tenerife. I never understood why they added the beep, beep, beep, to reversing vehicles when, speaking in percentages, hardly anyone has been badly injured by them, compared to those unfortunates maimed by forward moving vehicles, which are beep, beep, free. But even the annoying beep sound can be mitigated by the direction of the wind which carries it off somewhere else, a bit like the dust that has been spoken about. While campers were experiencing dust-settlement on site at Cayton Village, I have to say, my car was covered too by a thin layer of reddish dust - and I was many miles away at the time. A friend of mine who stayed at an expensive hotel in Scarborough and left his car nearby, returned to find it too had attracted a fine covering of dust - And he paid £145 for the experience.
