Would it be noisy to live next door to a butcher's shop?

Question

Don't they have to prepare the meat, so would that mean a lot of banging in the morning etc?

Answer 1

There's a terrible amount of banging in my house, dear Sindy, every morning. The neighbours complain, naturally, but that's only because they are awfully jealous.

Answer 2

If you are into doing some banging then I want some of it morning noon or night, god you turn me on you s**y popsie, er...dont tell Lady Agatha what I have just said.

Answer 3

you might get more smell pollution then noise pollution.

Answer 4

YES!You better move somewhere else...

Answer 5

Only if the butcher tries to slip you a sausage in the morning old girl, I'm sure you wouldn't want that sliding through your box first thing. Tip top.  

Answer 6

Depends if they are new rave rockers

Answer 7

lol...no - they don't slaughter the animals in the shop so it will be fairly quiet i would think.

Answer 8

I had the misfortune of sharing a flat above a Butchers Shop.

Saving some money you see, as I was in College. . just round the corner from The Elephant and Castle it was.

And every night you'd hear the most fearsome screechings, wassailings and other diabolical Nefarious Nocturnal sounds of h**l omitting from the underbelly of the Butchers Shop.

As the weeks passed, and through careful investigation it became apparent, that the Butchers was in fact a Black Magic SECT!

All manners of the Sophisticated and the Society's best turned up, asking for seemingly harmless requests for Sausages, Paxo Stuffing, Bovril Cubes, Pork Pies. . .. er, tripe. All of that, when in fact. . . they were secretly practicing the most Diabolical of the Dark Arts!

To none other than OLDE CLOOTIE himself!

There.

Well, aside from dancing around a Cauldron, naked, drenched in the blood of Goats and Chickens and singing a disturbing, in-tongues and utterly Alien ode to the Devil as he sat watching in his Goat Apparition. . . they were most amiable, when I asked them to keep the noise down,

Going as far as apologizing profusely and letting me have a couple of Ribs wrapped in Grease Proof Paper.

So, have no fear, Butchers are the most splendid of neighbors.

Glad to be of Service VG.

Answer 9

i doubt the noise will disturb you  

Answer 10

I'd imagine the butcher would be banging around a lot as well as messing around with his sausage.

My local butcher sells 'special stuff' every Friday (He is famous for it is Hilary Briss)  Perhaps you could try some?

Answer 11

If I was a butcher, I would be banging my meat as much as possible.
