We are not alone

A scurry of tiny feet, a rustle in the cupboard, telltale signs of activity. We have some furry visitors.

The first sign was a liquorice allsort in Jim’s boot when he put it on in the morning – fine, except he doesn’t usually keep his sweets there. And the allsorts had been in a dresser in the adjacent room. Next we heard packaging being nibbled in the evening, in the mouse proofed cupboard. All was not well. As the days have got cooler and shorter the woodmice have been visiting the houses to supplement their diet; with our carbohydrates.

However, as you can see from the picture, they are very creative and indeed artistic. Little darlings!
