It is holiday time again when the rain pours and inconsiderate people keep us awake.<\/p>\n

Charlie and I were on sentry duty overnight when we heard the approach of the screamers.<\/p>\n

These selfish humans are a nocturnal evolution of the daytime human and are seen walking in a wobbly, snake-like way down the pavements and alleyways in the early morning.<\/p>\n

Evolution seems to have played a cruel trick on these souls as they do seem slightly deaf. You can often hear them shouting ‘I love you’ or singing along to bad music on their mobile phones.<\/p>\n

Often barefoot, these sad individuals seem to revel in their self importance and don’t seem to care about bumping into road signs or scratching cars.<\/p>\n
