'I burst out laughing'
A couple who woke up to the sound of 'scuffling' discovered sheep wandering about on their roof. Kristen Jackson, 28, and Daniel Payne, 33, were in bed at their home in Whitworth, near Rochdale .
"I woke my partner up and was like 'do you hear that?'. He said 'it’s probably just birds' - with the wood next to us we get a lot of wood pigeons and it’s not the first time we’ve heard them outside. But I was sure it sounded much heavier and it was going on for some time."As she was curious to discover the cause of the noise, Kristen put a dressing gown on and stepped out of the back door. She found four sheep on her home - leaving her 'in shock'.
