Downton Abbey lifted my spirits today, mum and daughter enjoyed it as well. Had evening meal with parents which was lovely. Have my table and chairs now both secondhand but very good quality. £40 for table and £25 for chairs .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.1

Glad that you enjoyed Downton

I think you are right to switch pest controllers if you are not happy. Wishing you well on getting rid of them.
Well done on the chairs and table. A great result! Was it E3ay or a CS?If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

Table was from a house clearance and chairs found on gumtree .
New pest control man got in the loft and crawled to the squirrels. I have to get the other traps removed by the first company and then he is coming Monday to start. Completely different experience, much more reassuring , told me not to worry. Slightly happier tonight .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.1 -
I'm glad you're happier with your new pest control man and I hope he catches the squirrels.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

I need to do a long update on everything but just checking in to say the squirrels haven't been heard for 2 days and I have identified the hole where they did get in. They seem to have evicted themselves!
Today I am off to the Lakes just for the day and am looking forward to seeing my friend . Plus I have 2 other meet ups I am looking forward to in October .
Anyway everyone enjoy the sun.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.1 -
