Good Morning Early Birds

[Redhelen72]

I can’t remember the last time I was awake this early.
Another busy day beckons with work, but at lunch I am starting to sow my seeds for my veggie garden so that’s exciting.
Hope you all have a good day

[Smowball]

Just woke up to get a drink and found a live mouse running round our lounge, and our two cats chasing it!! It’s still racing round!

[Redhelen72]

Morning, ignore it and let nature take over!
You can get the husband to pick the carcass up later- if they leave anything

[Smowball]

Yes, I’ve shut lounge door to keep it downstairs and come back upstairs! Quite amazes me that they even get it thru the cat flap, which they must have done!

[Aircooledfool]

Maybe the cat brought it in, ours does that all the time, she then parks them in my shoes once she gets bored with them . These days I always knock mt shoes out before sticking mt feet in them

[Aircooledfool]

Mt?? Should read my!

[Redhelen72]

That or you have a teeny tiny hole in the house it’s amazing what mice can squeeze through

[Aircooledfool]

Of course , having actually read your post ( it’s late and have not slept yet) the cats are to blame, let’s hope they don’t learn the shoe trick

[Smowball]

Ooh a hole, possibly!! Will have a double check when it’s light. I was just convinced they are carrying it thru the cat flap. It’s about the 3 rd one in 3 months.

[Aircooledfool]

That’s suggest the little bl**ders are setting up home somewhere inside, hope not it will be real nuisance if they are

[Redhelen72]

Morning Aircooled, are you on nights?
As for the hole apparently if you put wire wool that stops the critters

[Smowball]

It’s not quite light but I’ve gone downstairs on a hunt and there is no hole anywhere. Lounge has patio doors only, so nowhere to have a hole, and kitchen has back door only, so nowhere to have a hole either.

[Aircooledfool]

No not nights, long since retired, back pain is the problem with not sleeping, no fun at all, getting a home visit from physio next week after 2year wait

[Smowball]

Aircooledfool - you have my utmost sympathy. After my accident where I fractured my spine I have suffered with permanent severe back pain.

[Aircooledfool]

And you have mine,
Explosion Injury when serving in the military years ago is the cause
I was ok for a long time but it eventually came back to bite me

[Aircooledfool]

They did at the time tell it might come back but I laughed it off, not laughing now though

[Smowball]

What pain relief are you taking? X

[Aircooledfool]

High strength co codamol, but i am reluctant to take them too often as they are actually addictive. I try to regulate my intake to times when pain is v bad. The real downer is that the condition limits mt mobility and my ability to do normal stuff

[Aircooledfool]

Did a mt not my again , time for a lie down maybe

[Smowball]

Yes I’ve been given soluble high strength co codamol, but again try not to take it unless I have to.

[Aircooledfool]

Well I think my poor old brain is getting fuddled, so I will retire gracefully to my scratcher. Thanks for the chat and sympathy
As they say “keep taking the tablets” but not too many
Bye for now
