caddyman: (You there)
Signally unable to capture a mouse either dead or alive, I have nonetheless converted chez Bryan into a fortress of glue traps, snap traps and poisoned bait. These are used in combination and marked individually with flags and notices advising, Achtung Mausenfallen!!. As yet there are no trip wires, barbed wire, machine gun nests or land mines.

I do have a torch, though, and that operates as a searchlight.

As time progresses, yon garret is transforming into a veritable Berlin Wall for mice. This is the way it should be. Although there have been no captures or fatalities as yet, rodent activity has declined markedly and those appearances it/the make are clearly more desperate.

Only last night I was treated to a mouse escape from Colditz, as one of the buggers, jumped out of a kitchen cupboard, curled into a ball and landed safely on its back on a body warmer before scuttling to safety in the shadowy recesses of the kitchen.

If they are resorting to such tricks, I must slowly be penning them in.

Machine gun emplacements next! Hurrah!

I am bored with the Intarweb.

I think I have read all the good bits, skimmed most of the bad bits, and the rest is beyond the capability of 56k dialup to download. I expect there's more out there, but really, who cares? This technology is now old. I require something more stimulating to waste my time on.

And yet it is addictive, like switching through an infinite number of TV channels and saying seen it each time.

By God, I'm bored. So bored that I've developed boredom apathy. I don't even want to read a book.

Go to bed shortly, I think.

Emm's right. I need to get out more.
