Screaming. Near-constantly, in the sense of "off and on every few minutes" not "literally every second" while horse playing with each other. From 4pm when I was trying to unwind after work until dark or after, with a brief break for dinner. Yes, this meant until 830pm on some days of not being able to relax in the living room without frequent high-pitched interruptions. Or the bedroom. Every weekday and sometimes on weekends, for months. Through fancy variable-thickness windows.
If you're wondering whether I'm enough of a grouch to care about the existence of children playing outside, no, of course not. They were really, really loud.
