Re: Working from home is great...
My noise peeve is the sodding pigeons. They sit on the eaves outside my bedroom window and start cooing at first light.
Our neighbour has a tree and two of them were nesting in that. When they weren't doing pigeon stuff in the nest, they'd sit cooing every bloody morning outside my window to wake me up, and then move to our fence to pebbledash it with white streaks until it was time to go back to the nest ready for the same routine the next day.
Just before Christmas I came down one morning and was greeted by the sight of a large Sparrow Hawk chowing down on a pigeon literally less than ten feet away from the kitchen window. Later in the day, another one came down further up the garden and caught another pigeon, carrying it away this time.
Nearly three months later and the pigeons have only just started coming back.
