    So Clever Susan, thank you for the analogy on noise suppression using egg cartons. So let’s get busy and STICH the Egg Cartons together and put them on the walls to help reduce the noise while we wait for our TECHY.

    Note: I realize that is not correct spelling for stitch but I need 5 letters so I took out the letter “t” 😆

    I have never heard of using egg cartons for noise supression but it does make sense. Lt's get busy stitching the cartons together. It is a good way to cut down on "costs".

    Yes Linda a good way to cut down the costs by making our own noise suppression with stitching egg cartons together. However, we need a lot of egg cartons so we will need to make a lot of signs and have them distributed all around the community and have them stapled to all the Street POSTS that line our streets to ask for help from the local seamstress’s who can sew the egg cartons together for us.

    There must be a lot of seamstress we can get to help. I have quite a few egg cartons and I can make "stops" at different houses to deliver them.

    Yes, the shape of egg cartons baffles sound, so they are good for noise suppression. Linda, thank you for volunteering to deliver the egg cartons for stitching to the seamstresses Judith knows. I hope you do not have to take too many STEPS to get the job done.

    PS: I just looked up egg carton sound proofing and unless the egg cartons are made of sound proofing foam, it's an urban myth that ordinary egg cartons will work! But for our story, they work well! Lol!

    Aren't urban myths pests?

    Indeed Susan, Urban Myths are Pests. Oh well the Egg Cartons work for us and thank you Linda for making the stops to pick our cartons up. Marie my Seamstress is such a wonderful Seamstress I can hardly wait to see what she does with these egg cartons of ours. And guess what Linda she lives near you, isn’t this wonderful! So hopefully Linda won’t have too many Steps to take between houses. One thing that will help Marie told me there are several POSTS in between her house and where we all live, so Linda can follow the Posts along the way!

    Following the posts will certainly be helpful. Some of the mailboxes and house numbers are so low I have to "stoop" to read the names and numbers but the taller posts will make things easier.

    I hear you Linda, yes some of the numbers and letters on the houses are very low, not sure why they do that.

    We don’t want to spend our day squinting our eyes and stooping way down just to read those house numbers.

    So let’s put out the word to put “STOPS” to the low letters and numbers on the houses!

    STOPS

    Yes, low positioned numbers would get buried in snow, so hopefully our protest stops people doing that. I also wish more shops made their street numbers clearer. Let's get that sorted too!

    SHOPS

    Yes, the numbers are hard to read sometimes especially if they are back from the road. If the names and numbers were the size that are on big cruise "ships" they would be easier to read.
  • LosinSusin
    LosinSusin Posts: 5,743 Member
    That's true, Linda. Big numbers like those on cruise ships are so much easier to read! Their production could become a whole cottage industry for someone. I wonder would they become a tripping hazard for some though? I wouldn't like to bark my shins on such big numbers outside every house...

    SHINS

    Yes I agree that might be a tripping hazzard and if I fell, there would be many areas of bruised "skins" on my knees and elbows.

    SKINS
  • Healthyme7410

    All my bruised and raw skin areas would be bleeding and I would need some first aid. I would be looking for "sinks" with clean water to wash off the dirt.

    Ouch, Linuda. I am sorry you got hurt and need to find a way to do first aid on your knees! I get a sinky feeling just thinking g about your poor knees.

    My knees with get better once I get new glasses so I can see the huge numbers and not fall over them. I do not like to get new glasses. It gives me a "sicky" feeling just knowing that I will have to pick out the frames and not know if people will like them.

    Yes indeed Susan, let’s get the Shops sorted out soon! Ok let’s get creative and take pictures of all the Shops, I have my camera ready and will take SHOTS of each Shop for us to make the decision!

    Eek! Most of my shops are on the Mainland so it will be difficult to get shots of them. I might have trouble getting to them all before each one shuts its doors! Anyone have a spare jet plane with pilot for me to borrow?

    I'm sorry my jet plane and pilot are in use right now. She is packing my bags so I can come to Tasmania to see some of the sights in person. When I fly back, I think she might fly low over Australia so you can take some shots. That "suits" me if you are agreeable Susan.

    Oh, I am so glad your pilot can buzz Australian jewellery stores for me, Linda! Can't wait for you to get here so I can show you some sights! What a time we will have. We'll be in SITES that will delight and surprise!

    Ok Linda and Susan, I spoke with your pilot Linda and guess what I am joining you on the flight to Tasmania and also site see Australia and check out the stores while there. It’s going to be Fun Fun! And while in Australia I am going to be brave and go Kite Flying, but first I need to look at the KITES and decide what one to buy!

    Judith you are very brave to try to go kite flying. While you kite flying, I will be using my fishing rod in the ocean to see if I get any "bites" from some of the native fish in the area. I am so glad you can join us on this adventure.

    BITES

    LosinSusin Posts: 5,743 Member
    Kites and bites! What fun! I'll bring my grandchildren for the kite flying and my husband for the fishing. What a party this will be. Better check to see what the tides will be like as kite flying and fishing are often done on the sea shores..

    We need to be aware of the weather too. If it is hot and sunny and we are on the beach, our "hides" (skin) might get sunburned.

    LosinSusin Posts: 5,743 Member
    That's true. We don't want sunburnt hides. We can always go on some amusement park rides that are indoors instead? I sm thinking of an amusement parl that was built in the top floor of a shopping centre in Brisbane, for example.

    Oh yes, we have all the indoor fun and shopping at Wet Edmonton Mall a huge place and fun place for everything, swimming amongst the ocea waves, I like this plan, we can take Rides in between the Tides and have fun fun and more fun! We will just have to wait for the Sun RISES then we are on our way!

    Wait for me! I'm always slow the morning! I am excited to go to the Edmonton Mall as I was last there in 1968! Lol! I'll raise myself now.

    Awesome, that’s great Susan you we’re there in 1968; I took my Mom on the Train from Vancouver to Edmonton in 1986 the same year Expo 86 was held in Vancouver. Mom came to visit over Christmas of 85 and she stayed until January 86 and we went to the Mall, She wanted to travel on the train so I took her to Vancouver to take the train. Part of her Christmas gift was the train trip to Edmonton. We had heaps of fun.

    So Let’s ARISE and be on our way to West Edmonton Mall.
