Have you tried the pillow method? To really block out noise, lie on your side with you head on your pillow then put the biggest cushion or pillow you can find on the other. Two if you can balance it, making sure there's enough room to breath. If the pillow itself doesn't block out the noise entirely, the sound of the movement of the pillow on your outer ear can be quite comforting and provide an alternative for your ear to listen to. Also it can have the effect of blocking out the sunlight if its during the day. The only obvious problem during the summer is that it can get a bit sweaty if you're not careful. Gosh that’s terrible.

I am going to talk to the council, and see what they can do first, and will then write to the owner of No. 78, and, if I can find them, No. 74. Neighbourhood meetings are a bit of a scary prospect because this isn't exactly a place where there's much sense of community. I'd feel like trying to organise one would be a bridge too far right now, but maybe later. Failing that, we'll move.
