always the same two times a day and hey are amplified by two gigantic loudspeakers mounted on the roof of he When is this tasteless and annoying practise going to stop Don we have a by law that explicitly forbids this sort of annoying I do not profess to have any knowledge In ma Iters concern Ing the Ballinafad Church but It seems to me that If the purpose of this musical Using is to draw attention to the existence of the church and Its weekly service a for more agreeable and effective method would be to simply ring a bell as most other churches do And there Is no point doing this Monday through Saturday either considering services are offered only Sundays and perhaps on high Christian holidays I would not complain about the bell ringing at the jug of a service Christian tradition and it is quite charming even if as undoubtedly would be Ihe case here the sound came from a tape But I have had enough of this mindless chiming Please turn It off Ballina fad May We Present
