Waiting in a bar while Nathalie had dance classes.
I was wishing the euro-pop music would somehow stop, and then the builders started (yes, actual builders a few floors down).
Angle grinders and industrial drills will pretty much drown out everything including the little ambience a bar may have had. Of course, everyone carried on as normal.
I asked the barman if there was a seat where I could hear the "orchestra" better.
I don't think he understood my humour.
