Yawn.... Wakey.. Wakey...!!!! MK3..

Good morning everyone.

Clare, apparently chocolate and peanut butter are the best things to attract mice to the trap. We've got another one in the trap this morning :thumb:.

Oscar is an outdoor cat but he is allowed in the kitchen but the mouse doesn't seem to be there when Oscar's around. He came in yesterday morning when the mouse was in the trap and sat in front of the cupboard with his nose against the door. That's how we know the mouse was in it . Mrs shiney is about to take the mouse for walkies.

It's student day today so I'm on kitchen duty cooking their lunch - and doing the washing up. This evening we have friends coming for dinner. Their kitchen has been gutted by fire so they are being fed by friends. The place has been stripped out and, hopefully, shouldn't take too long to refit.

Last night'd frost has cleared but it doesn't look too bright out there.

Have a great day :D

 

Good morning Shiney and all my other friends on this bonus of a saturday,have a great day and please stay safe.

Good luck then shiney, Morning Woo & O2 I hope you are feeling better soon....... Dull & mild here, but where is our Kandy then..???

 

Good afternoon everyone,

Kandy, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Our best wishes go out to you and the family.

Yesterday I was lucky enough to get through the semi-final and qualify for the final. Thanks Marley :thumb:.

I've just come back from a check up at the dentist and he says I'm doing well for an old 'un.
Chiropodist this afternoon.

We have Supermouse in residence. We noticed that there had been mice in our cupboard under the kitchen sink and they seem to be getting in from outside (no evidence of mice anywhere else) so I shall have to see whether there are any gaps around the wastepipes.

We put down a baited humane trap and the first morning there was a mouse in it. He was transported to a field down the road. We baited the trap again (cheddar cheese) and the next morning there was another mouse (different one). He also went on holiday with free transport.

We were still getting evidence of mouse activity although the trap was now not being tripped. So we had to put down some rat poison. Supermouse seems to have a good idea about what to do with poisoned grain. We found that the outer coating on the grain appears to have been scraped off and the just grain eaten. Although we baited the trap the bait was disappearing without the trap having tripped. This morning the bait was gone, the trap had obviously tripped and the door has been bent out of shape - no mouse!!!

Update later in week.

I wish all my GC friends the best of health

Have a great day :D

 

Kandy....... I am so so sorry to hear that... It is so hard to lose someone when you know there may be a chance for them....... My thoughts are with you as I lost 2 very very close friends last year... I am sorry you couldn't be with Rita to say your goodbyes, but sometimes we don't need to say them as the person knows......
Just hard for us left behind with no one to answer that question...... "Why.... Why that person"..???

My thoughts are with you Kandy & also with Rita's family... So hard......
Keap that chin up & a smile for Rita & her memory.....

Love from
