Always been a lovely quiet street since I moved in. But in the last week there has been an innceaantly barking dog most nights somewhere nearby. Has anyone else heard it at night? And does anyone know exactly where it is so that I can report it?


Furthermore, a couple of lads on scooters (one on a small motorbike with a white helmet) have been using the street as a bit of a circuit of late. Has anyone also noticed this? Can anything be done about it? I feel like I'm going mad through lack of sleep!

Must be a different dog because this one was barking for about 3 hours solid last night and it's starting to drive me mad! I'm certainly not someone to complain over the small things and, as a dog owner myself, I'm all too aware that dogs bark. Happy to drop a note through a door before resorting to calling Noise Control or the police.


Re the scooters.. I've had messages from a couple of others saying that it's not just the noise, but the behaviour of the riders that have been causing problems so will definitely be phoning 101 next time.

RE: The scooters, the lads live on Playfield, Lytcott and Melbourne. They come out every summer to fix up and parade their scooters, however they are not out there til all hours of the night. Every year the same neighbours phone the police and make the same complaints - the police come round see they are lads hanging out not causing any trouble or damage and leave them to it. The Police have been around there twice this week alone and spoken with the boys... they are nice and polite boys who have all grown up around there. All it takes is for you to have a word with them if they are disturbing you.


No doubt the ones that have PM'd you are the said ones who are making the complaints, in which case they must be aware of how many times the police come and have a chat and laugh with the boys and leave them be.


I hope the issue with the barking dog is resolved, that would drive me mad.

    • This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon  
    • That was one that the BBC seem to have lost track of.  But they do still have quite a few. These are some in their 60s archive. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0028zp6
