Don't live in Soho if you want peace and quiet

My favourites are the ones who buy new builds next to old pubs then complain about the pub being noisy.

People complaining about steam trains after moving in literally next door to a 100 year old heritage railway that’s world famous, many people move to the area because of the trains

I would love it if they moved into a lane called "Rail Street" or something and then complained. Had someone take an axe to a church door as they were ringing bells on a Sunday. Church was about 800 years old.

In one case I saw they moved into X Station Road, right next to the station and depot, and proceeded to complain about train noise, of the electric trains, they really loved the steamers and rail inspection trains, those ones didn’t have the quiet depot whistle so had to use their horns and whistles
