A retiree in Germany complained to police that his neighbours were always playing music and annoying him. It wasn’t so much the volume, as the fact it was always the same tune, and they seemed to have little regard for what time of day they’d strike it up, either.
It turned out that the music was in fact coming from an electronic birthday card on his windowsill, which the wind would periodically disturb just enough to engage the music circuit.
Police said Tuesday the 82-year-old from Goslar in central Germany told officers he was sick of the music, which would come at irregular intervals and at all hours.
