Pipes groan after toilet flush- plumber needed

had something similar recently, also when I used bathroom taps/shower. turned out to be worn-out ceramic washer on the kitchen sink mixer tap. apparently the worn ceramic washer allowed air to be sucked up through kitchen tap when water was drawn upstairs and this caused the symptom of banging pipes. when I sussed the cost / hassle of replacing the washer wasn't much less than a basic mixer tap, I replaced the mixer tap keeping the old one as a spare.

    • Have they had a bit of a 'falling out'?.
    • I've seen my cat many times walk straight past a fox, at less than half a metre separation. both animals ignored each other.
    • The young ones can bite car tyres around this time of year - I assume they do it for the thrill of the hiss or something like that.  We had a spate of damaged tyres and thought it was a disturbed person or at a stretch an environmental protestor taking it too far, but caught a fox on a house camera.
    • Although this sounds worrying, a "bitey" fox is unusual. I see foxes all the time where I live near Rye Lane and have never experienced this. I've even seen a fox sitting in the garden where an outdoor cat lives, whilst the cat was there - the cat was fine and is still alive. I think my flat is on a fox path because I hear and see them most nights, none of the local cats seem bothered by them. I can't help but wonder what would make the fox act in such a way, I've just read that toxoplasmosis might make them more aggressive
