... which can take an annoying whine out of your hearing range, you can use them in the ocean to listen in to whale ...

I could use that with one of my clients.

You really do have 'hairing' problems.

My hearing is bolloxed. The fur growing out of my ears doesn't help!

In the place where I'm staying ... a really annoying high pitched whine ... one of those Mosquito things.

Google might help. Blinky linky:

PEOPLE who install the child-scarer “Mosquito” device may be falling foul of the law, claims a leading human rights lawyer. James Welch, legal director of Liberty, told a Plymouth inquiry today that the devices were deliberately setting out to create a nuisance.

Liberty's opinion:

Perhaps the best way of challenging the use of this device would be via the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (EPA). Under this Act the local authority has a duty to investigate “noise emitted from a premises” that is a nuisance, and a duty to issue an ‘abatement notice’ if a nuisance is found.

Yeah, those football chants can get quite annoying after a while.

Gunner = Royal Artillery.

To quote from Good Morning Vietnam where the Robin Williams character was speaking to an artilleryman from his own imagination...

"Anything, just play it loud, ok?"

With a magazine of n rounds, in your own time, go on.

Mine wasn't too bad until I did a tour with a gunner regiment. Ouch.

Too much time on a range or in the back of a hercy-bird!

Sorry, what was that? Couldn't hear you.

Probably tinnitus.

If they switch the Mosquito off the local yobs will be around to smash the place up and make loads of noise. you cant win either way. except shoot all the teenagers.

HTH

To be honest you wouldn't see a difference if they did.

As suggested I think I'll get some noice cancelling headphones - handy for the plane anyway

Having a mild head cold can make you able to hear high frequencies.
