And something ...

... else looms again :O(( We've taken precautions but the first indications are that it hasn't worked! Eldest son has been onto dormer roof and 'spiked' a square meter of the roof, near the ridge and chimney - in other words their previous nesting spot - to stop the seagulls nesting there again this year. This is what we've put on the roof and this morning what did I see? One had hunkered down at the end of the spikes but up against what remains free of the ridge! Just ordered more spikes to go the whole length and a double row. Hopefully, if there's nowhere they can get cosy they will find another roof - LOL! Reckon that allowing them a couple of years lodgings is enough and now that the dormer room is occupied (by eldest) he doesn't want to hear an army of gulls with hobnail boots on strutting around the roof when the little ones(?) hatch! He's already commented on how noisy they are and there's no sign of youngsters yet - LOL!

Thanks for dropping by .....
