    Back safe and sound. Spent a couple of hours by the beach - windy, very, but sunny.

    Just got into bed having had a shock - we have a mouse in a drawer in the en suite :eek::eek::eek:

    The dogs and cats will be home tomorrow so I may have to lock the cats in the loo :rotfl:

    Now how can a mouse get into a drawer when all the walls are tiled, drawers are opened only occasionally, cleaned regularly - Mr T hasn't come upstairs yet, he will be in for a surprise.

    Ten minutes later........ mouse droppings in the bed :mad::mad:

    Bed is now in bits, everything being vacuumed, bedding stripped, DS helping with mattress, blinking super kingsize mattress is lovely but too flipping heavy for me to help with.

    What a lovely return to the UK - can't beat a bit of housework at 1.50am :rotfl:

    Morning all, Tilly x x

    Nooooo..... how horrible!
    Dare I mention where there is one mouse there are usually more?
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Glad you had a lovely Christmas!


    Just caught up on your animal antics - more :eek::eek: from me re the mouse (hopefully not mice!:eek:) In some ways I am pleased you saw the dog's accident - at least you could sort it out and were able to pay for the vet fees - like the others, I agree that it was a lovely thing for you to do :) Lucky dog to have Tilly family on hand :)
