A disgruntled HDB resident recently put up a notice with the details and timings of all the noises made by their upstairs neighbour.

The resident even listed down the types of noises generated, including the dates as well.

The notice was put up at what appears to be the lift landing of the HDB block.

They must’ve really had enough to resort to this.
