However, over the past year there has been lots more young children appearing in my area - which may mean more trick or treaters this year.
Another thing I find annoying is bonfire night, which totally frightens the life out of my dog - who hides behind the settee and refuses to go out for a walk. My neighbour last year decided to set off massive rockets in his "small" garden and one of them nearly smashed my kitchen window, and another firework nearly set his own fence on fire!
Oh shit, I forgot about bonfire night! My puppy is only 10 months, and as we live near Lumley Castle, where lots of fireworks go off to celebrate weddings, etc, the odd firework goes off. My mam (being my mam) said he could have the entire conservatory as 'his room', and once we got it fully insulated and refurbished (just for him) he has started to sleep in there, and he is so comfy he sometimes doesn't want to get out his crate on a morning!
When that occasional firework does go off, you'd think it was a firebomb! He goes absolutely crackers!! It's worse when it goes off at 22:00, and he goes 'pee pees' at 21:00, it really disturb his nights sleep!
