There were strange, ululating cries coming from the garden in the middle of the night, sounding as if they were right outside our back window. Jane thought it was cats; I leaned more towards foxes or a goblin raiding-party come to carry away the baby who lives upstairs!

Whatever the truth, a few squirts of water from the old washing up liquid bottle we keep filled to dissuade squirrels from standing outside digging in the raised bed seemed to do the job of restoring the peace, although leaving the mystery unsolved!
