More response on the mysterious noise of Louth reported recently has flooded in but still there are no answers.
For two weeks people have been writing in complaining about a high pitched sound heard around Louth and coming up with theories behind it.
Mary Abbott of Lee Street texted the Leader at 10.22pm last week to say: "As I send this that noise is, as usual, very loud and very annoying - I have to shut the bedroom window to be able to sleep".
And she was not alone. Erica Silvester of Trinity Lane hears it late at night and thinks it is because she does not have double glazing.
She said: "The noise has been waking me early in the morning. I think it is the pitch of the noise that is particularly annoying. I was pleased someone else could hear it as I too was beginning to doubt my own sanity.
"I suspect as I do not have double glazing that may be why the noise is waking me virtually every morning."

A mysterious noise is annoying a Louth woman so much, she is contemplating moving home.
The woman, who did not wish to be named, contacted the Leader complaining of an 'extremely irritating and continuous noise' she can hear around her home in Charles Street.
The lady says she appears to be the only one who can hear the noise – so much so she was checked by her GP for the ear condition tinnitus – but after getting the all clear she is adamant the high pitched noise exists.
"I have tried and tried to figure out where it comes from but no-one has the answers – it is driving me insane! I would love it to stop. I have heard it for about a year now and it is just too much."
The woman claims it cannot be heard in the town centre but can in the Charles Street and Hawthorne Avenue area and seems to have got louder recently.
"I don't want to complain but it is so annoying, I am sick of it.
"I know it seems extremely silly, but noise does annoy people – can someone please find out what it is and switch it off!"
