Ipswich Star:
A tormented mother living in Bramford Road with her two young children has been woken on an almost nightly basis by a tinny, distant rendition of ‘It’s Raining, It’s Pouring’.
She said the threatening undertone of the song had left her frightened and questioning whether she was imagining things. After months of torment, she finally reported the unusual complaint to Ipswich Borough Council. The team sprang into action. They joined the woman at the scene and went out to investigate this ongoing mystery.
Months!? She listened to that creepy sound for months!? I know about the British “stiff upper lip” but this is ridiculous. I would have reported that the first night I heard it.
We have a church a couple doors down from us that had its alarm go off all summer last year. It was annoying as hell. But I’ll take that over creepy nursery rhymes all night long.
I don’t know what was creepier..the song playing at all hours or that it was spiders setting it off! The only thing this is missing is a creepy clown somewhere in the story…
Normal for Ipswich …
Wow, a government that responds to its people.
