A resident in Woonona, NSW is struggling with their neighbor's late-night piano practice. The neighbor plays the same tune, "The Windmills of Your Mind," badly on an electric keyboard using only one finger, often until midnight. This constant noise is causing significant distress to the writer. Suggestions include wearing earplugs or playing music through headphones to drown out the sound. However, the real issue persists late at night when sleep becomes impossible due to the persistent and irritating drone. The article humorously suggests extreme measures such as sneaking into their neighbor's home while they play but ultimately advises seeking a more peaceful resolution.
