There is nothing worse than a screamer as well, It won't help how you are feeling about missing the funeral

When i read the bit about your neighbour coming over, i thought "oh poor thing, the neighbour has complained about the screaming". That's what one of my neighbours did when i had a screamer. But no, it was all about her nice puppy. That would cheer you up a little
