Mouse Busters

Hi Grock I saw that too but we're a bit short on mouse busters around this area. I've scheduled a massive clear out on Sunday and I am determined to find him somehow.

Thanks guys, not what I want to hear but thanks anyway. As the weather is promising to be good tomorrow I'm going to have one last go at emptying everything out and finding the little sucker.

Humane Mousetraps

Help! I have a mouse living in my outhouse (attached to my kitchen) which has been in residence since early December. I can't put down a trap or poison; I'm sorry guys, I don't kill things. I bought a humane trap which hasn't worked and currently I'm feeding the little thing on cheese (he just loves...

Attn GROCK

Grock Be careful at that sing a long Sound of Music. There was a show in our area a couple of years ago and during the Best Dressed Nun competition the extended stage collapsed into the orchestra pit and 20 of the nuns disappeared in a puff of dust! Half the audience thought it was part of the show ...

Hi Jane

I'm glad it's not just my imagination, I thought exactly the same this evening and them my local radio said how miserable and gloomy it was. I thought maybe it was just wishful thinking on my part. I'm with you, I can hardly wait for longer days.

Yes please Chez, I'd love some of them (max 4) as my family is addicted to blackcurrants.

Perhaps I could collect some with the potato tubs!
