Something to make you laugh...My hubbie woke up one night and saw something across the room.He said to it "who are you and what do you want"? It turned out to be the ironing board !!
Anyone elses other half made the giggle?

Not nighttime either, but years ago DD2 and I were driving home from the Lakes, when I had a complete rant about some skinny cows in a field and was going to find the farmer to ask for an explanation.
Cows? Cows? They were alpacas according to DD2 - I got glasses after that!

Some years ago, I went outside at night, to put some food down for a hedgehog I saw in the garden. The next morning, I saw it was actually a plant pot!

Walking through the park. " That's the size dog I want "
" Mum that's a pull along case ! "

My son got up one night and saw a dark shadow in the hall so he launched an almighty punch at the intruder. The helium balloon he’d just hit just bobbed away in the breeze. grin

When I was working in a Hotel I had a difference of opinion with a guest who was wearing a red anorak. When it was my lunch break I started to walk out onto the street, when I glimpsed a red coated, black trousered chap with his back pressed against the wall a little way along the street, obviously trying to hide from me but waiting for me walk past him to get to the shop.
I went back inside and asked one of the staff who was also on a lunch break to come with me.
As we approached the person I saw it was a red letter box supported on a black pole built against the wall of a house…..

It took a long time for people to forget that mistake.
