Early Morning Noises: Sir, – Reading in Friday night’s paper of a noisy motor-bicycle has prompted me to air a grievance of much the same sort. Every morning regularly at 6 o’clock two Corporation ‘buses stop outside 64 Salisbury road snorting, chuffing, changing gears, etc. The noise is terrible. It wakes my whole household. We can sleep through a thunderstorm, but not the noise of those buses: S. Pinsent, 64 Salisbury Road.
