    Hope you're mouse free soon.
    We have a problem with rats here, they run through the gardens :mad:
    They once set up home in a loft in one of the houses in the terrace and used to run through all the lofts but luckily that's not happened in a long time since.
    There's noting we can do with them outside as they come from the local woods and river, we just have to get used to them hiding under and in the sheds and not store anything they can eat in there :mad:
    Enjoy work :)

    We also had a rat plague in the garden - it was gross, bait and a trap helped to eradicate this first lot.
    When the 2nd lot came it snowed so we could see the little foot prints leading back under the fence to next doors shed. So the lady next door got the council in :D
    So now we only put bird food out on the feeder in the daytime, never on the ground.

    Sometimes I am too rash, as you'll have seen from some of my failed 'test shops', which I always promise to myself I'll never do again, where I rush out too early and it doesn't work. I suspect that Skips 18+McCoys 15 might have worked the day after I tried but, having failed, it wasn't then attempted again. Only later did the scale of the glitching become clear, which then left us with little or no time against an expiring offer at the competitor (the half-price there on one of the multipacks had already disappeared for me when logged out).

    Regarding the Pimms and Morrisons, I wouldn't rush out and get them in Mr A and I'd wait till at least tomrrow night and probably later. However perhaps I am erring too much on the side of caution.

    I'd have thought the Pilgrim's Choice Lighter Mature Cheddar (£3.50 in A) would be okay, as that offer has been running for some time in Morries and, the last we heard, it was supposed to be running until 7/7.

    However...being continued...

    On a flyer posted through my door Pilgrims choice running until 14/07/13
