Wee, sleekit, cowrin, tim`rous beastie.........(Burns)........a reference to ME!!!!( save for "sleekit") , rather than to the rodent I suspect has taken up residence in my home.
To be perfectly honest guys, whether or not I drink today is currently the least of my concerns...........am too busy feeling terrorised by the thought that I may well have a `squatter` of the rodent variety. Understandably, I feel SICK!!!!!!!
O.K., here goes............I live in a top flat of a very old Victorian terrace, which was renovated 3 yrs. ago...........architects did a fab. job........standard of renovation is outstanding, save for some skirting board where the workmen left too great a gap between the board and the floor, particularly prominent in the bathroom.
About 5 wks. ago I was out shopping, leaving my mother and my kid in the house.........kid thought she saw a wee mouse in her bedroom, which she said ran very fast............my mother didn`t see it, as she wasn`t in same room at the time. So, my mum told me to leave white sheets of paper on the floors overnight, as she said I would see droppings on papers in morning if there were actually any rodents here. Result was papers were clean in the morning, only I hadn`t put papers down in the room where kid said she saw the mouse, but nonetheless I reasoned there couldn`t be any rodents here after all.
Anyway, things have been uneventful these past few weeks, with me thinking I was in the clear................until last night!!!!! kid went to bed and heard a plastic bag rustling under the bed..........I went to investigate and I also heard it.
So, my question is............do you think I have an uninvited guest??
Also, am so s*** scared that I`m heading into town to buy a JML pest repellant...........looks like an adaptor which you just plug into any socket..........is supposed to send some sort of digital signal throughout all electrical wiring in house to repel pests throughout the property. Does anyone have any experience of these things, and are they effective???
Sorry post is long-winded............am just in a real state over this, to such an extent that I`m beginning to think getting myself a new man maybe may not be such a bad idea after all !!!!! LOL
Thanks for reading guys.

If it weren't for the quarantine laws I would send my best mouser, Boop to you. He hasn't brought me any mice (did I mention we never have them w/3 cats) but he has proudly given me many fine, half-dead birds. And since we have a catdoor, he even nicely takes them into the living room where we can view his prize in person!
