I live in crookes and about 15 mins ago a deep vibrating noise started outside somewhere. It's really loud. Anyone know what it is? It's a constant noise. I hope it stops soon it's too loud to sleep through

I'll have a word with the OH!

Is there a bus parked anywhere near your house
Or maybe it's the Helicopter :D

Maybe Joe's visiting his home turf :-)

Im in Crookes and just walked up from the centre about half an hour ago and didnt hear anything, whereabouts in Crookes?

its the wind blowing on your guttering

Are you sure there isn't a large-scale Ann Summers party going on somewhere? Would certainly explain the vibrating...

It carried on all night!

Insatiable, these women in Crookes. :hihi:

It carried on all night!

It sounds like Boyfriday's '' back massager ' ;)

(sorry Boyfer)

We think it was a ufo! We must've been abducted cause we both slept through it and i'm a light sleeper!

Do you live near to Alcoblog by any chance??

jet powered chinese lantern?

You don't happen to live near Woodfield Rd / Longfield road (backing on to Bolehills Park) do you? I lived up there a few years ago when they built a few flats on the corner - the railings outside were made from steel tubing that was left uncapped. When the wind got up they made a noise not dissimilar to blowing on a milkbottle. Some of the notes were quite low.

No I live behind coop. Its cant be that cause its constant. It started again at 9. It's a machine noise, a bit like having a tumble drier on with a whirring noise, but lots louder and its outside. What is it!

I must apologise. I just found where I could buy baked beans in Jakarta.
That 'rumble' cost me a pair of white Y fronts. :o

I'm wondering if this thread will get reawakened when the smell gets to the UK.

Sorry to bring this thread up again, but the last few nights I have now been hearing a wierd vibrating noise in Crookes, up near the Cemetary, not a constant whirring though more like a vum vum vum pattern of noise! Its hard to describe haha.

Anybody else heard this?

They still do make that noise if the wind blows in the right direction. Can be a bit spooky whilst walking the dog late a night!

weird stuff!

Is there a factory nearby? I hear a deep thumping noise sometimes but when I delved into my memory, I discovered it was a steam hammer at forge masters. They fire it up very occassionally but it's wierd if you don't know what it is.

I'm the OP and we figured out the noise was coming from next door! Turns out their old school tumble drier was against the wall and the sound travelled really well into our house!

maybe it was a helicopter?

oh just realised you found out what it was!
