Because its been so warm the bedroom windows have been wide open, I awoke this morning to the usual wonderful dawn chorus at 4.00 o’clock I drifted a little until I heard the wonderful cockrel our neighbours, the allotment holders have.. very nice..this was followed by the howls of the Peacock the nice lady at the animal sanctuary down the road has added to her collection… charming…The ginger cat next door decided to add its contribution with a cry, just like my grandaughter sounds.. up with a start then..layed with my eyes closed for a bit and heard the cock Pheasant clucking, he comes to pick up the seeds that have fallen from the bird table..By this time its 6.00 o.clock and I swear I heard the kettle calling….
I answered the call… while the kettle was boiling I heard Rascal the dog outside (she lives in a very plush run outside) she was barking at the Heron that visits our Pond occasionally, with no luck I hasten to add… I decide I can’t win this morning I will bite the bullett and take Rascal on an early morning walk, but guess what? When I get to her she’s FAST ASLEEP!!!
Wont take any rocking tonight will I?

I guess you've tried all the 'options' Grandmage. Nose strips, Tennis ball sown in his Pj's, No spicy food etc etc... I saw a pop up tent yesterday and had a chuckle to myself. Thought you could put in the garden for OH and then you could get some sleep!! lol
