Sid was getting ready for bed
When a thought came into his head

Last time I watched it was 1967

  

    

 

 

I went to my exercise class this afternoon,  but didn't enjoy it.  In fact I came out half way through.

I know its my fault,  and you can't expect someone to alter a class just for one person,  but I can't stand loud noise or very noisy people.  I never have liked either.
But since my hearing has been playing up,  certain noises actually hurt deep my ears. It's not nice.

Each week I have asked the instructor if she can possibly turn the music down a fraction,  but the next bit of music that comes on and its ear-splitting loud again.    To make matters worse,  she then has to shout at us  to be heard over the music!!   

Today was worse than ever,  and it was really hurting my ears,  even though I had taken my hearing aids out before I went in,    but rather than make a fuss,  I just made my apologies and  quietly left. 

She is a nice girl,  and knows her stuff,  but I suppose if she does this all day and everyday,  she doesn't notice the noise like someone who has just come in from outside.
She'll probably end up as deaf as me though, one day!

I don't think I will be going back, which is a shame.  They are a nice bunch, and its good to meet people and make friends,  but I can't be shut in with that ear-splitting music,  and for all I know, it might damage my ears even more.

What would you do?  

    

Another thing I don't like in shows like that are noisy audiences.

I can't be doing with the  screaming, yelling, booing, jeering, cheering  which drowns what anyone is trying to say.
