    Perhaps the old fashioned way will work best? Book an appointment, accidently slip and knock the hi-fi off it's table? Then look sad and cute... :cool:


    I knew it would end badly when I first met Chris in a Canberra alleyway and he said 'try some - it won't hurt you'..... - Christian Graus on Code Project outages Damned nice for remote servers where using Enterprise Manager is like wadding through treacle while covered in velcro, upside down -Paul Watson on SQL Server Query Analyser

    Or go in wearing earplugs, and turn it up so loud that it blows the speakers -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

      alas I think they may suss me out - I am as bald as a coot and my office inmate is a musician ('nough said)

      Technically speaking the dictionary would define Visual Basic users as programmers.
      But here again, a very generalized, liberal definition is being employed and it's wrong

        Okay the Hairdressers nextdoor is blasting out Xmas Music which they have now been playing the same CD for the past 2 days - My fellow office inmate and I are trying to work out how to destroy the music sytem by remote - any ideas please.

        Okay, here's how you do it...build a remote control flying creature (like a bee, bees are nice) and load it with a small amount of explosive material. Fly it near the music system, detonate, and no more Xmas music. Okay, maybe I'm starting to lose it since bedtime was 6 hours ago. Brad Jennings

Off-key. If they complain say you like their music that much. Other idea: Record a CD with the same music... getting slower and slower. Sneak in at nite, relplace CD. try one of the generic remote controls from ThinkGeek.

            Ask for a polish then :) (sorry) "The folly of man is that he dreams of what he can never achieve rather than dream of what he can."

                Hmm, something off topic, completly unrelated, possibly unnatural - why not ask them politely to turn it off/down? :confused:


                I don't think this is a serious possesion, and the evil most likely comes from your hand. Colin J Davies, The Lounge

Its becoming a long pitch battle... this Hairdresser only has the memory span of 20mins - I think it is some sort of protection mehanism so they can repeat the same conversations ad-nauseam (we know as they then have to shout these conversations/stories over the noise of the music and driers)
