Mon, 10 May 1999 - 08:36:11    Some very loud hits echoing through the wall followed by  rail noises; must be the cleaner hitting the walls and rails outside; this occurred amid a squeaking door outside; the noises continue.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 08:38:57    Sun up high and behind clouds now so that I can see; the whole time for the last hour has been obliterated by the brilliant sunshine in here; must do something about that.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 12:28:56    Third green car from very end of other side pulls out and leaves; only one left in the middle where the guy got in as I recall (if I’ve got it right).  Now that it is raining, they’ve all taken off; cannot do anything in the rain out there.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 12:42:12    Raining quite hard now.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 12:43:43    Just closed the kitchen window due to the rain.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 12:43:59    Into bathroom for a pit stop; I did not make a sound; only the sound of the rain hitting skylight in Walkway and drain open sound from sink; front door slammed just as I left the bathroom.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 12:46:40    Voices sound out as I returned to chair.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 12:50:19    Now the sun is coming out again as it clears.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 13:24:42    It’s getting very hot and steamy in here again.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 13:33:52    R4 off; continuing with Quicken setup.   

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 13:54:16    A torrent of rain just came down; it is sheeting out there; over as quickly as I started.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 13:59:04    Door slam below.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:10:45    Siren’s arrive and go on.  Bit of thunder in the distance.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:12:14    Into the bathroom for a pit stop; I did not make a sound; cleaner using machine in Walkway.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:13:59    Back to the chair; nil outside.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:18:02    Door sounds below; double hits; two of them.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:20:43    Door slam below as the printer makes a little sound.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:30:50    Guy working on his MC by the near wall stairs; looks set to go.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:32:44    Just finished printing PCUR for export/import verification as the guy keeps working on his MC.  

Waiting for the MC worker to do something; video is getting large.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:38:51    Restarted MC video since it was too long and the same thing; just him working on it; music is thumping and booming in from somewhere.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:44:29    Dog barking away underneath.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:46:06    Dog barking away again after someone gun’s an engine.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 14:57:06    MC is finally revving up as I continue to work on the Quicken accounts import from PC Bank.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 15:04:13    Blew up sys trying to shut it down; it was irretrievably locked out over something.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 15:05:04    Dog barking below.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 15:09:02    Door shut below.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 15:10:45    Sys rebooted and reloaded; video OK; guy still working on MC.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 15:38:44    Guy still working on MC; must be waiting for the tel call that tells him I have stood up; finished checking PCur import; it was perfect for all the trans all the way thru.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 15:44:16    Turned on the printer and made a noise by hitting the top exit feed tray and knocking it off.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:00:10    There was an update posting in PLon for 11.63 int on 5.5.99 which was entered, edited and xferred to Quicken; they duplicate; have find a way to xfer trans (only want to enter them once).  Looks like the guy has finished work on  his MC; it’s still there as big as day.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:04:40    Into the kitchen for a couple pears crouching all the way;  into bathroom for a pit stop; not a sound from me; door opening very quietly in Walkway; out to listen?  Noise from Walkway as I left and crouched back as I had left.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:09:08    Back in my chair.  

Working on the Quicken BDep acct; the few there will not Xfer; must do them by hand; printed  the nine trans; entered by hand.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:41:53    Phone ringing just a few times then stops.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:44:12    Voice underneath sounds like Louie.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:53:50    A woman’s voice was heard just a minute ago as I finished the last of the entries in Quicken for BDEP activity.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:55:44    Into kitchen to rinse pear plate.  Crouched both ways.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:57:09    Back to chair crouching; the group leaves the Walkway with only one exposed; the talkers stay hidden.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 16:59:36    R4 PM: Yugo troops begin partial Kosovo withdrawal; China demands full apology and punishment; boy 12 found well/man arrested;

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 18:22:22    Door slam below.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 18:23:27    Getting some monitoring activity overhead since I started this with the sounds in the connection; woke him up.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 18:25:31    0845 079 6699 64k Freeserve(01:47): Articles; Email (2): 18:27:18

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 18:29:53    CD works now but is having trouble.

Installed Sidekick 95. Open skw2\userdata directory to open each of the files; then save them in sidekick95\userdata.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 18:35:00    Kid goes down the footpath calling “dad”; could be Frank and sounds like Louie responding; rumbling auto taking off and a woman says something short and loud.   

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 18:39:38    Into the bathroom for a pit stop; I did not make a sound;  heard some very faint voices below.  

Installed Quicken v6.0 with multimedia in it (I hope); yeah, the CD has to be in the drive.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:06:38    MC (throbbing) just went up the footpath to the pen.  

QW6-R00-714 Quicken V6.0 serial number.
01932 578 525 for modem registration.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:19:54    01932 578 525 Quicken Registration(4:05): OK this time but aborted trying to fill in the form:19:24:01

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:28:05    MC went up the footpath so fast that it screeched its tyres when it stopped in or near the pen.  

Printed session for Intuit Quicken’s registration; squeaked a bit and got some activity; yells and door slamming from both upstairs and below.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:44:54    This started the music going upstairs in retaliation.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:48:03    Printed the Unemployment for over 50s article and am getting some footsteps above now; must have broken the sound barrier with something that I have been doing for three years.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:48:39    Very hard, loud door slam below; continuous tapping on floor above.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:51:59    Got this vehicle with a very large windscreen parked right in front looking this way and being tended to by a guy who looks very familiar from earlier activity today: see clip  051099_195258 where he finishes and leaves walking up the near wall stairs and up by the near wall; much talking up there after he arrives.  That’s probably the only one I’ll need tonight.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 19:56:33    Door slam; sounds like below.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:05:21    Rebooting to restore RcvMgr as footsteps go stomping across the floor above/below?  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:06:04    It’s above; they are cheering Monday night football; this is going to be a trying evening I can tell as they will be shouting and stomping away up there and most certainly trying to keep me awake.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:09:07    Progs reloaded and video reset; hot and sticky in here again as they fog up the windows.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:09:45    Noises on the balcony below.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:11:27    Moved over to the bed noiselessly and safely only to be greeted by stomping on the floor above; this will be going on for a week or two.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:16:36    Dog barks on the balcony below; they are making extraordinarily loud noises above; one stomp on the floor directly above and shouting and yelling higher up; even a scream/shout as I took off my trousers; what a bunch of creeps.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 20:49:56    Dog barks below two times on the balcony; now three times; four; and it takes off barking and barking; three has been continuous stomping and sharp noise above too; including a large rolling sound; when I moved after a bit they cheered up high; intent upon keeping me awake and not letting me sleep.  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 21:15:38    That was the blunder buss of them all; a huge direct solid heavy deafening thud right over me that shook the whole place; all this while they talk and talk about parking outside.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 21:16:35    If I did not get the msg the first time he just did it again overhead but a little lighter this time; now he is stomping; as they carry  on in the most disturbing way above with loud and continuous talking.

There were saying “whoooo” earlier on two occasions clearly mocking me.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 21:20:00    Two very hard door slams above; that was deliberate; these guys that are now back are complete children just like the parents.

He must have left upstairs for the night as he had to get a couple hard licks in on the floor before he left and then slam the door as hard as possible twice before he left; They should be back about two am.

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 21:29:34    There was great cheering and yelling from the crew outside a little while ago after the final floor hits and two door slams; did he go out there and brag about what he had done?  

Mon, 10 May 1999 - 21:32:00    The crew out there is the crew on the balcony evidently because they just erupted into yelling and stomping; there they go again; this is that Monday night football game.

[Looks like I got about 5 hours sleep for a change.]

    Tuesday, 11th May 1999

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 02:46:19    Been awake for a little bit after my latest dream which I have now forgotten.

Managed to fall asleep at 2200 or so [closer to 2130] and have slept right thru; do not remember waking up along the way but might have; anyway there’s my 4-5 or so hours so far and am now awake it seems for the rest of the right.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 03:00:32    Two autos pull up outside from Bram; the first sounded like a taxi (diesel engine) and the second sounded like “the” car; maybe they detected the virus scan [which had just begun].  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 03:01:36    One of them backed up back to the end of the bldg out of sight presumably and the other departed from the far end.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 03:12:33    An auto drives by from Bram.

[I do not believe that I slept here at all but only lay in bed trying to get to sleep unsuccessfully]

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 04:06:43    An auto just went by and the computer is running for some strange reason; what is it; still the virus scan? Cannot be. [But it was]

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 04:11:01    Just went over to the computer/chair; yes it is the virus scan still working; must have just started back up again; turned on the radio for Up All Night and got a reaction from the noisy auto that started from the end of the bldg and drove with speed to the middle of the road stopped with a squeal of brakes (brake linings or absence thereof); this auto has a distinctive deep buzzing sound from its muffler or lack thereof hole in it).  Believe that they might pick up the computer activity and the radio through the sound card responding each time to pull up out front to see if they can see; since these are different autos they must be working in shifts.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 04:34:09    Just after finishing the last entry, went into the kitchen for a new bottle of water; made two small noises removing it from the fridge; back to the chair; watching virus scan; poured and drank a glass of water; listened to Up All Night cover the papers; I stood behind the chair and I cannot even see the street lights outside through the curtain.  Now it is back to bed for a bit.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 04:37:57    Very faint sound of footsteps outside and just before that voices ever so faint but present.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 04:42:09    Noises from below like a towel hitting the floor.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 17:27:39    Scraping continued non-stop while I looked in the Yellow Pages; had to move the headset and various items first; guess they really thought I was going to make a telephone call; stopped immediately when I put it back.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:00:14    R4 PM off; reading pubs Articles.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:05:32    MC just drove out from the DP stairs where it had been parked all day; 051199_180528.mv2 caught it just as it was waiting between two parked cars to enter the road after an auto passed; no good as it does not show it on the Estate.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:07:19    Just caught MC driving onto the Estate to the near wall stairs; this one is perfect: another one just drove up the footpath???; check the clip at 18:08:11; guy chaining the MC and departing to DP stairs; does no walk around 051199_180849.mv2. Someone shouts “Dave” this could poss be the MC driver.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:12:55    Sounds like the kid with the ball is out front now; yeah the older kids playing in the street;

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:34:37    Dog barks below as the bench warmers laugh outside.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:36:29    She (the Cackler) calling the dog outside intentionally causing it to bark. This is precisely why the dog barks at those it recognises outside because it is enticed to do so.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:40:28    Triple beeps and revving by an auto outside; more talking and noises from the bench warmers.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:46:51    Finished reading the d/ld pubs Articles (Dirk Bogarde’s death & Andrew Neil for DG BBC).  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:50:49    Sounds like Louie calling the dog and the Screamer saying something; he seems to reply “that’s betta”

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:53:39    The dog is now barking away on the balcony below

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 18:59:20    MC just drove up the footpath; missed in as I was working in Sidekick 95; went up past the kids playing (only hear their voices) and evidently parked in the pen.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:01:14    There it is; the jolts from above on the floor as the evening gets underway again. Oh yeah, sees me working on SK95 and wants to know what I am up to.
                            
Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:05:32    Door slam below; medium hard and loud.  

Setting up SK95 with files from Win31.
SKW2/USERDATA then save in SIDEKICK95/USERDATA  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:28:24    R4 Front Row: did I miss MW re Parting Shots?  Yes, he was first.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:39:38    Whistler right under window whistles twice, sets dog to barking and gets guy above moving about; now out on balconies yelling around.  Nil in video but apparently the MC is gone again.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:42:38    Music above is starting up loud and clear with thumping bass.  

The system is working much better and unencumbered with whatever was slowing it down; did they remove the xmitter from the sound card?

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:44:13    R4 off; missed MW who was at the beginning of the prog (1915).  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:44:42    There he goes; the El Rollo is off again above me to the left a little; positioning it half way between the chair and the bed?  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:45:37    VW arrives.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:46:08    Another El Rollo; up behind me a slightly to the left.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:48:42    Music still blaring and thumping away;

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:49:45    VW disembarks;

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:52:52    The dorks are home as the music blasts away.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:55:16    0845 8450 150 Localtel Cust Svc(00:0 : got thru finally but could not hear me and hung up; I asked “can you hear me” and he replied “no” so he must have been able to hear me: 19:55:24

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:55:24     0845 8450 150 Localtel Cust Svc(??) check this one as I was registering ‘in use’ until so I might have had an open line for seven minutes: 20:02:0

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:58:07    Whooping above.  Mocking?

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 19:59:02    Door slam below.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:04:19    Guy yells very loudly outside to “Diabolique” it sounds like three times causing commotion above.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:05:47    The MC is back???  Two guys are down there with it; one in a red shirt sitting on it an the other next to it; they have moved away now; probably playing around with it as one guy looked like he was trying to crank it.  Maybe he’s trying to sell it and they just took a spin?

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:09:59    The music is now off; after that phone call they got serious again.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:10:44    There we go; let’s have thumper above and he must have heard me for he did it.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:13:51    Just got back from a pit stop; I did not make a sound but the water running in the wall was very loud; was already running when I got there; kids playing in the Walkway; shouting from above to the outside while I was in the bathroom; guy above is stomping around now above me as I write.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:16:07    Door slam above just after he stomps out; the music comes back on.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:17:03    Reset video; window getting foggy.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:19:03    R3 concert on.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:26:33    An El Rollo above me as I relax listening to R3; noise and more noises.  There goes the music again above too.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:31:56    It’s unbelievable upstairs; he just stood in place and stomped on the floor above then went to the other side where my bed is stomping his way there; that is incredible as it shakes the whole room.  That was deliberate.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:38:57    Hooting (mocking?) outside and an El Rollo above.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:44:56    The kids upstairs are making noises out on the balcony

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:45:37    Door slam that sounds like it comes from below.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:47:35    Yelling and stomping at the top of their lungs.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 20:51:07    There we go again; more solid and deliberate stomps overhead as I sit with my head resting on my hand listening to R3 violin music.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:05:41    Music is thumping away up until now and stops.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:06:34    Moved soundlessly over to the bed and drew immediate stomps directly over me and shouting out the window above.  I guess he’s telling everyone that I have moved.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:07:26    Someone out on the footpath talking. And saying something loudly in this direction apparently.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:07:56    The car pulls up; maybe he was telling him where to get off about shouting out my activity from the balcony window.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:17:25    Very hard and loud door slam in Walkway; prob from below; just before this the guys were yelling and hooting in the distance in the road; mocking the sound they think I make when awoken?

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:32:02    I just rolled over about halfway to be on my back when an El Rollo thundered overhead; apparently the guy above went to the window to yell my latest action to those in the street.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:42:29    I just scratched my stomach which caused foot and voice noises to emanate from above.  It has gotten all quiet in here for awhile except the noted incidents. They are waiting for me to fall asleep so they can wake me and hopefully cause me to talk in my sleep.

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:44:38    Two solid loud and heavy El Rollos from the jerk above; he waited until I had just laid back down afer writing the above and made as much noise as possible to disturb and distresses me.  All of his is at it most provocative.  

Tue, 11 May 1999 - 21:46:20    A huge yell in unison above with a couple cracking feet stomps above; now this is followed by more as I sit up. A sporting event?  

[Looks like I got about 4 hours sleep; not as much as last night for the first go because I woke up earlier but not too bad; just shows that I sleep right through if left alone.]

    Wednesday, 12th May 1999

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 01:41:08    Into the bathroom for a pit stop; not a sound from anywhere: me or anything else; tried again to test the ability to see into the back of the room from outside; cannot even see the lights outside thru eh”curtain”. [Must be completely fogged]

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 01:45:25    Back to bed from bathroom pit stop;

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 02:10:54    Furn scrape below; virus scan began at 0200 with absolute minimal noise from clicks; they cannot be heard at all; believe that I heard one auto pull up outside that made barely a sound.

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 02:21:19    A nearby door slam/shut that vibrated thru the floor.

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 02:27:17    “The” car arrives quite fast as usual.

[Fell asleep for about an hour or less and woke after a dream that was nightmarish]

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 03:37:56    Woke up after a dream about a flat that had access from every one with no locks on the door [my sense of this flat with its entries in my absence]; one guy came in while I was there; started to look at my stuff and departed when he saw me; everything was in French and I was trying to get that changed.  Virus scan is moving right along now that it must be out of C drive.

[Back to sleep again for about 1.5 hours or less; total for tonight probably about 6 hours]

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:08:57    There it is; a refreshing thud from above directly over my bed; such is the continuation of the harassment

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:13:28    A min ago just as I laid back down; an auto pulled up and a vehicle went by; the first from Bram and the second from the other end.

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:22:31    Noises coming from nearby; thuds and general shifting sounds of something; prob below but not specific and could be above.  Into the bathroom for a pit stop; I made not a sound; into small room for stats:

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:22:31    Wt 217; Elec 35,147.1; Gas 11.930

                    Noises from Walkway of doors closing; into bedroom for clean underwear; door closed in Walkway (loudly) and saw the fat guy from above scurry down the stairs (white shirt under dark open jacket and dark trousers); into bathroom to put on trousers; no front door sound until I exited bathroom for living room [delayed?]; picked up the notebook on the bed and came to chair with notebook on table soundlessly.   

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:28:52    Back to the chair; cleared msgs on sys; Talking Box problem; out of memory; out of space on E; virus scan still running (closed);

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:29:59    Video on but fogged following elec lock beep outside and sound of engine start ane most likely a very quiet depart; check sys info; no disk space on E; kept getting out of mem msgs; looked at Explorer x2; check file space for everything; no reason for the space loss that I could see.

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:34:53    Rebooting to refresh resources and chk E’s problem. Had difficulty; would not shut down from the menu and had to go to CAD after shutting each one and shut more until its shutdown worked.  That actually turns off the sys; believe virus scan messed up the OS and locked out VM resources  on the E drive as I got its full msg and out of memory; might have screwed up the FAT.  

Wed, 12 May 1999 - 05:40:17    Turned sys on with a beep; reloaded OK with sys info showing 849 Mb avail for E as it should be.

Both lines were very faint this am; the primary one that I used for the 3rd call did not recognise the number at first; then it did on the second try; it was also faint.
