But think of the clean air, the bracing country walks, the chance of meeting a turnip crunching, green wellied, horny-handed son of the soil. Just think how refreshed you will be when you return to smokey old London where there is no chance of being woken by a cock at 4 in the morning.

As you are now in the country, even if you stopped all the clocks you would probably be awoken at first light by a cock.

You need either to wear earmuffs or have a large malty drink before bed. I favour the latter.

Don't even get me started on that - there is a cockerel  whistle: in the rear field to my mothers house.

Doesn't evolution suggest that animals evolve and get rid of physical features, characteristics that are no longer necessary. So why the feck does the blasted creature persist in hollering for about 3 friggin hours in the morning. Surely one call should be sufficient - saying hey guys guess what I can see -then shut the heck up  evil: evil:
Indeed cocks are most irritating.

Your mother must be a very tolerant lady if she is regularly woken by one in her rear field in the mornings.

Already met the horny - handed son of the soil yesterday. The local farmer ( Chris) - he popped over to say hello as he knew I was visiting.   noooo:

Do I know him much - nope. My brother used to work for him but not I. Then he proceeds to tell me how my mum has told him about this and that about me  evil: evil: evil:

I have tackled my mother this morning but she feigns deafness when it suits  Banghead

There is something to be said for the anonymity of London  cry:

As for being woken up by a c**k or a cockerel the 2 are entirely different and will instigate very different responses as you well know  lol:

A choker of chickens would not be very appealling - I would prefer diamonds - and before anyone suggests no not pearls  lol:
