speak to your neighbour nicely, many years ago I used explosives to cut fire wood, & found out my neighbour was suffering from War nerves. Every time I did a shot , he thought it was a hand grenade. After that I would tell him when I was going to do it. we became friends, he even came wood collecting. So long as he was prepared for the noise he was ok. He died recently in a nursing home with dementia reliving the horrors of war(many ex servicemen do) Not a nice way to go, even in his last days he had no peace, battles end , scars of war last forever.
