Helene and i get "very hot" at night ( no funny comments at our age,Please) so sleep with window open....which is fine until between 4am onwards the cockeril nearby beats my alarm clock by 2 hours. Another early morning for a zombie mug of early coffee. Must say worse is flying rats. Ie pidgeons nesting outside who coo coo downn chimney from v early morning and s**t all over the patio. Really nice though we have swallows or hosemartins arround...i could never tell difference, prob never will. We have, depending who u trust, blue tits or great tits nesting here. I don't know but helene has a view/opinion/H view...hope all well with u.
