Correct on all counts Sundae :p Though less a party chick than in my yout. I consider that I have calmed down enormously
The parties are only silly a few times a year. Mostly when they have their gatherings the noise has calmed down by the time I am looking to sleep. I think it's probably six months since theylast had a really late bash. This one was the worst though, and I suspect that they were celebrating some event. There were certainly a lot of balloons about and they don't usually pitch a marquee.
[eta] I'm down at Ma's house with both dogs, whilst she's visiting Auntie Jaqs. Easier to deal with them both here, and gives Pilau a chance to sit out in the garden. Every so often I hear a car on the cobbles outside. We've just had torrential downpours and a short hailstorm. Suddenly now the sky is bright blue and the birds are back out and singing.
I can also hear the very faint sounds from the park down the valley. Some kind of kids' radio thing going on down there.
(eata) This is the park btw:
