Pigeons and the Betty thing - help free me!

Those of you who know about this ^^ will know what I’m referring to. Those of you who don’t - take my word for it - don’t look it up.

For those in the know - arghgh! It’s driving me mad. Day and night, the pigeons tell me about the issue with their toes and I can’t stop my mind repeating that phrase, over and over and over. I literally wake in the night and there they are, outside the window - it’s relentless. Am I doomed for the rest of my days? Maybe I’m particularly suggestive.

Any tips to free me? I’ve tried replacing it with a different phrase - but nope!!

And I picked it up from Mumsnet - one of those ‘things you’ve learned’ threads Hmm. Now I just want to UNLEARN it!

I found the noise annoying before I knew the phrase 😁 I guess it does make it harder to ignore though

Ironically, I never minded the pigeons’ cooing before I LEARNT THE WORDS - now they coo no more. Just complain about their toes.
