Live life to the fullest and teach your mate’s cat to play the piano by carefully dripping tuna water between selected keys.

I’m tortured by my reflection. Our sustenance craves alteration.

It’s Nena, not Nina.

“No, the vendor’s T&Cs don’t specify any circumstances under which you’d be entitled to free returns, it’s not a thing. Change of mind isn’t covered. I told you making Paella is a pain in the neck. Now we’ll have to get the freakin Paella pan shipped back on our dime to get a refund, minus 25% re-stocking fee, of course.”
“Fuck off, Fred.”

Most jurisdictions, including councils and their relevant bylaws, prohibit any type of nuisance behaviour. It matters not if the nuisance manifests during day time or not. What matters in context of noise is frequency, duration, volume, intensity, droning and pitch. You, as property owner or tenant, have a right to the peaceful enjoyment of your property.
The council’s environmental health officer is typically the appropriate POC for these matters. They may ask you to provide a journal of events (you can write this retrospectively if this is a regular occurrence), and/or they may choose to attend themselves to verify during times in question or if you advise them as such.
Out of council hours, they usually ask for the police to be called so there’s a record/independent witness. There is nothing stopping you from calling the police during daytime.
The council may ask you if you’re comfortable to try and talk to the offending party to resolve the issue. Decline this vehemently and state that you fear for your safety (especially since this guy appears to be mentally ill!). Let them deal with the matter, it’s their job.
I feel bad for the bloke who’s ill, but conversely you do not need to suffer from his illness, and neither does your mum.
I wish you best of luck.
INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
Place the rice and cinnamon stick in a large glass bowl and add the 4 cups of hot water. Cover the bowl with a dish or plastic wrap, then let it soak overnight, or at least 8 hours. *Please see NOTES
NOTES
If you have a Vitamix or other high-performance blender, you won’t need to rest the rice to soften it, as the blender will be powerful enough to grind the hard rice grains. Additionally, you probably won’t need to use a sieve or strainer to strain the rice water, as the rice mixture will be very finely processed. Always taste the drink before adding the sugar. You might need more or less sugar than the amount indicated in the ingredients. If you feel that the consistency of the Horchata is too thick or dense for your taste, simply add more water.
