It's official, wedding are bad for your health! I always knew that I hated them for a reason.
I was at a wedding on Saturday and on waking on Sunday found that my trapped nerve in my neck is much worse. Just turning my head from side to side to talk to people (long straight tables, not round ones) has well and truly nipped it. So it's back to arm, shoulder and neck pain, thanks to my 'irritable' nerve. Lots more neck traction, God knows what it's doing to my crumbly vertebrae!
Was really cheered up by Byatt's mouse post and yes I remember the 'Mouse in the stair song' Was there a puppet mouse called TOPO GIGIO some times in the 60's?

Thanks for that Anguk, nice to know my long term memory is working, not sure about the rest of me tho'Give us the strength to encounter that which is to come, that we may be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temparate in wrath, and in all changes of fortune, and down to the gates of death, loyal and loving to one another.”0

Cheese worked when we had a mouse in my Armageddon cupboard. The destruction one little mouse can cause is unbelieeeeevable. 20 bags of flour all with a small hole nibbled in them. I had to take them all to the tip because if I'd just put them in the dustbin it would have been so heavy, the bin men would have refused to take it.
It was war!
Didn't take long. Set the trap about 6 in the evening, went down to the cellar to have a look at about 10 and there it was. Sent DH down to deal with it ("Why me?" "Don't be silly"). He shovelled the corpse into the woodburner. I stood well back and let him clear it out and relay it next day.:DIt doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!0 -
