    55 posts and No one suggested Andy from Sligo burns down his gaff?

    Oh After Hours, I am disappoint.

    I think that phrase was banned along with BTWP.

    OK I'll bite :D

    A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush!
    Or is it :)

    Great, now the Starlings are back. Noisy little sods. :o

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Definitely rats, they cheep and chitter just like birds. Every time you get awoken by the choir of birdsong, just remember it might well be a rat gnawing its way through your ceiling.


    I am curious. How would rats become occupants of an attic in the first place? By having climbed up a drainpipe?

    I fucking love the sound of birds singing, one of my favourite sounds.

    ask me that, when i get woken up by the birds nibbling at the guttering or whatever they are doing and you might be shocked at the reply!

    Well I used to live in a town and there'd be lads shouting and roaring all hours coming out of house parties so magpies are a welcome change! It's subjective:)

    well yeah, admittedly if i had the option between lads shouting coming out of house parties and magpies i would choose magpies ....

    but if i had the ultimate option i would rather be not woken up by feckin anything!

    oh, you ought to see what an miserable arse I am when i get woken up from a lovely deep sleep in the morning like that :eek:

    I hate the birds chirping in summer at the crack of down around 4am. I'm such a light sleeper so they ruin my sleep often.

    Cats and/or foxes are annoying sometimes too with their scary banshee howling

    my dogs hate that howling - sends them crazy. and if they hear a fox howling on TV as well - theres an advert on at the moment where the woman is in the woods and some foxe's are chasing her - they nearly knock over the telly when that comes on
