Bleurgh

I did not sleep so well last night. My new neighbour, as I said, is a loud and boisterous sort of fellow, and I woke up some time during the night to discover he was talking - very loudly - outside in the garden, possibly to someone on a phone as I only heard his voice. I'm guessing it was around 2, 2.30am, based on the number of times I woke during the night etc. I'm sure he was probably thinking "I'll go outside so I'm not disturbing anyone", not realising that the alleyways to our gardens act as a funnel for noise, and I could hear every word as if he was standing over my bed!

When he went back inside, still talking, I couldn't hear a word as soon as he closed the door!

Ah well, I was awake anyway so it doesn't really matter. Today we are going to work on moving the furniture around in the bedroom, and cleaning under the bed (I have a sneaking suspicion that the build up of dust under the bed is a contributory factor in our lack of sleep lately). We're going to try a different configuration for the furniture which puts the bed on the opposite wall and gives us space on both sides. There'll be less floor space overall, but more available in the smaller room off to the side, so I'll just have to get dressed in there instead!
