    OH has put some of the clean clothes in with the dirty washing.:mad: I only washed them on Wednesday so I know they haven't been worn - he's just moved the pile I'd left for ironing into the wash basket!

    Morning all, actually had a very productive day yesterday:p
    Gutted DD room and our room, having mice is actually slightly beneficial!
    I even moved the wardrobes and hoovered and mopped behind them!
    The weird thing is i didnt find any evidence of mice?? No droppings or chewed stuff which i thought was weird. I had visions of moving the wardrobe and hundreds of the little !!!!!!s pouring out:eek:
    Well hopefull the traps will arrive today, cant do the bathroom yoday as DH is in the process of installing it so will do living room/kitchen instead. After i have some coffee...
