details are easy. Wait for them to turn up at your place with all the decisions made and just go along for the fun.
by the time bureaucracy gets its sh&% together, the baby birds will have grown and left the nest.

Oh, that's a delightful and ironic story, although I'm sorry you've got
to deal with such an inconvenience. I love it when baby birds win against technology.

I realize it ain't funny to you, but I couldn't help grinning at your tale of woe, and I'm sure glad the birdies will be okay! And as someone who detests (detexts?) texting I hope you ladies will discover the joys of actually talking to one another again...

Well a good job in a way that there are laws. Once an engineer would have just turfed the birds out, I have seen it happen when facia's are replaced. Pity you cannot send telegrams.

I never thought about the possibility of birds affecting one's cable so much...I know years ago, a car wash operator had birds stealing bills from one of his changers.
