Absolutely loads of crickets in our garden. I've seen one green grasshopper in my cutting patch on the panicum too. We have a meadowy border and the 'lawn' doesn't get mown more than once a month so they seem to thrive!
I remember my old dad losing the ability to hear crickets, swifts in the sky and the rain on the roof. It was a series of heart breaking loses over the years.
That must be devastating to lose those small everyday joys.
