............I've just found mouse droppings under my kitchen sink and my hubby is working tonight!

Spent ages in the loft earlier too, wouldn't have been there if I'd seen the droppings first!

If you heard a loud scream, it will be me!!!!

Borrow a cat............................quick!!

Or stay with a friend.................or put some food in a plastic bottle, they go in for the food and can't get out again.

A nice humane trap for them.

Jax..................you're not being very helpful! LOL

Trying to keep calm, have got the traps out (we had the bu**ers about 10 years ago) and have set them, without breaking my fingers!

Think I will sleep with one eye open tonight though!

Trying to tempt them with bits of bread Kitty, do you have any burnt bits that you can spare?

*passes black sackful of assorted burnt food*

I found a good song

*deep breath*

a mouse lived in a windmill in old amsterdam
a windmill with a mouse in and he wasn't grousin'
he sang every morning, "how lucky i am,
living in a windmill in old amsterdam!"
chorus:
i saw a mouse!
where?
there on the stair!
where on the stair?
right there!
a little mouse with clogs on
well i declare!
going clip-clippety-clop on the stair
oh yeah

this mouse he got lonesome, he took him a wife
a windmill with mice in, it's hardly surprisin'
she sang every morning, "how lucky i am,
living in a windmill in old amsterdam!"

chorus

first they had triplets and then they had quins
a windmill with quins in, and triplets and twins in
they sang every morning, "how lucky we are
living in a windmill in amsterdam, ya!"

chorus

the daughters got married and so did the sons
the windmill had christ'nin's when no one was list'nin'
they all sang in chorus, "how lucky we am
living in a windmill in old amsterdam!"

chorus

a mouse lived in a windmill, so snug and so nice
there's nobody there now but a whole lot of mice.
