Surely got to be some kind of laws against it??

It's a really quiet area, so could theoretically be going on up to about 5 miles away the way sound carries around here, but what the hell?!
 
Ha! That was a test to see who else was up so must be doing it!

Give me your address so I can send the rozzers round! Oh, and you're sort and account number so I can check the address you give me is accurate...
 
Been going on continuously for about 30mins but appears to have stopped. Back to the sound of a babbling brook so trying again for some shut eye... Night!
 
Any railway lines nearby? They like to do work like that in the middle of the night. I remember one great bank holiday weekend where they closed the line for 3 days but only did any work at night, so we had diggers and all sorts of power tools going at 3am.
 
A couple of years ago there was a gas main leak about half a mile from my house. The racket they made at 2am digging the road up to get to it was deafening. Strange, because if it had been happened during the day we probably wouldn't have noticed.

Ah yeah, this will be it! Sounded like it was coming from that direction actually.
 
When i work nights the general idea is carry on till someone complains and then finish the job anyway as by the time the complaints gone thru the system the jobs long finished.
