It's awful LOUD around here at 6.30 in the morning. First, birds started to TWEET. It was ridiculous. I said to them, "What the hell is your problem? Not even a glimmer of dawn, and TWEETING."
But now I understand. From the first glimmer of dawn, the airplanes next door wake up and not to mention the CHILDREN, who are swimming in the pool. Did I mention it's 6.30 a.m.? Is this even allowed? Anyway, the birds have to get up real early to get some tweeting in edgewise.
This website was invented many years ago, when the author kept coming across interesting things in pockets whilst doing laundry. Like small, terrified reptiles. Blogging about raising children in the rainforest, moving them to the UK and watching them leave home one by one to have their own adventures has gradually been replaced by a return to grownup life for their mother, Nan Sheppard, who is an anthropologist, writer and public international law consultant.
