I had felt for the last few days that someone was spying on me, listening in on our conversations about the merits of various poisons, monitoring our emails to 'Pest Off' and 'No Pests'. Alas I was right. I was sitting at the computer when I saw him dissappear between the internet thingamebob and the filing box, first thought -a really fast slug! -We have big slug issues in our house, but rarely a mouse, they must just get a vibe. But this brave little soldier, who was obviously collecting intelligence to feed back to his comrades on Bluff Hill, has martyred himself in a peanut butter baited 'Better Mousetrap' barely minutes after I set it. He may have had a chance to send an email before his death, I did leave the keyboard unattended while I went to find the mousetrap...BUT anyway, it is our End of Year Do tonight, a chance to celebrate the achievements of this year, award prizes to trap sponsors and volunteers and have a bit of general merriment. You are most welcome, 6.30pm at The Anchorage Cafe Wine Bar, Gore St, Bluff. No spys.
