    I had one in my kitchen. What am I gonna do?


    Better check the mirror in the bathroom.


    EDIT: Damn! My wife reckons the kitchen one was by UB40 not The Beat. Not as funny now. A bit pointless in fact.:(

    Unfortunately your better half is correct ... but the sound is similar (not typical UB40) so the comparison is understandable. :)
  • Can't say I liked UB40. They'd be accused of cultural appropriation these days.

    You "think" you found a rat ? Packets of Cheesy Curls must be a lot bigger than I remember, or rats must be shrinking.

    I was thinking maybe £200 but okay

    So how have you come up with that figure? What would you like to be compensated for?

    If this thread is real (and it is indeed an animal of some sort rather than a burnt quaver) a full investigation of how and why this occurred will take place.
    I just wanted to know whether it was in fact a beastie or not...OP?

    Am guessing not, otherwise it would be headline news in The Sun along the lines of: "Aldi Quavers Ate My Rat".

    I've read a lot of tripe on this forum over the years, but really!

    Have you done the sad face in the Daily Mail yet OP? Although I'm sure you could come up with something better than this for your £200.
