An early start to the day

Up at Hill House there is a little suite off the kitchen which houses two bedrooms, a bathroom, a toilet and a door leading to the backyard.

Our bedroom is one of the two rooms in that suite.

There is a door between the kitchen and the small corridor but we almost never shut it.  Instead, we close a child gate to keep the dogs out overnight.  We never close our bedroom door.

This is what happens when you forget to close the gate when you go to bed and then get up at 4:30 to go to the loo

It wasn't daylight yet.  I had put a light on when I got up

It didn't seem worth the effort trying to get them to move.  I usually get up sometime between 5 and 5:30 anyway.  So an early start to the day for me.
