Just to make it clear, I don't have a mouse (or rat problem). The only time there are small rodents in the house is when the cats bring them in from outside. Sometimes I see them alive or dead, but at other times it is only "bits" of evidence that the cats have caught something Short tailed...

Three of my cats have been taking it in turns to sit at the bottom of the curtain over ther French window in the kitchen. Patch tried to climb the curtain so I put a step ladder next to it - I could see no sign of a mouse. Yesterday Toby sat on the top step, staring at the curtain so I drew it...

My local cat rescue has lots of semi-feral kittens available for re-homing in barns or stables. In return for shelter and a little food they'll keep the rodent population under control. I've used the electronic mousetraps when I lived in the caravan. They work well and don't make a mess...

What a waste of money! Why can't they have one lectern which everybody uses???????

Help! I'm an aunt and great aunt - ope no-one gets any ideas. :ROFLMAO:

Not a pic but hope it amuses you. Whilst stitching a cut on the hand of a 75 year old farmer, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the conversation got around to politicians and their role as our leaders. The old farmer said, “Well, as I see it, most politicians are...

AT least three of my cats LOVE having their tummy rubbed!

Got it in one!

Well done Lady A. The nights have been quite cold here and I've twice lit the woodburner when I've been working in that room and have run the central heating a couple of mornings until I get enough solar gain through the windows. I'm kicking myself that I didn't top up with oil a couple of...

Love the Boris cartoon!

Heaven help us then! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I laughed too - serves him right!

I read that they almost had to abandon the James Bond scene as the Queen " ad-libbed" ignoring him until he coughed and then apparently had difficulty stifling her giggles. The sky-diver was a stunt person though!

What a lovely memory to have.

Love it!

Latin. Selecting options at one point meant choosing between Welsh and Latin - a no-brainer for me, but at uni one quarter of the Welsh degree course was Linguistics and the text book for that was "the Latin Element in the Welsh Language". I had noticed quite early on that certian words in...
