The lovely view out my office window of a tree and passersby on the sidewalk was been lost for the summer by this view, of the scaffolding necessary to do some loud and smelly repairs on our building. As one of my coworkers said when we were sharing mild complaints about the noise and stench, “I’m just glad the College has the money to fix the buildings!” Hear, hear – but I can’t wait till I don’t have hammer drills going outside my window again.
While in Leighton last summer that constant drilling drove me insane, and I was two floors down from the roof!!
