Humane mouse traps are fine butyou'll have to release the mice a long, long way away s they don't come back. And as you said, if you can see one the rest are sure to be close by.
I have't seen any snow here today. It's very windy again though with some bright clear blue sky.

It has snowed here but not much. As ever it is worse to the East of the A1. I once drove up the A1 with it snowing on the southbound carriageway but not on the northbound!
I'm tempted to write up this American sandwich article myself because the information in it is vital to any European heading across the pond. Over here things are straightforward: a bacon butty contains bacon and nothing else, a jam butty contains strawberry jam and a ham sandwich won't even contain pickle unless you ask for it. Definitely no lettuce. Real men don't eat greenery, it's for .
We could submit the article to Peer Review as a group effort.

In America if you eat out a sandwich is almost always going to contain lettuce and tomato. It must be in the restaurant code book. Oh, and a pickle on the side is also more than probable.

Well, that was most disturbing, couldn't get logged in!
Dad's freezer is now defrosted and clean.
Going up the A3 was no problem but the other carriageway into Guildford was taled right back to the M25, must have been a nasty accident further south. I saw a Green Goddess and elderly Dennis fire engines trying to get through the traffic jam. No one seemed to be getting out of their way
It has started snowing again and it is settling on the remains of the is morning's snow. I left Dad's as soon as I had lunch as it was the settling in Sutton and I didn't want to be driving back when the school run was in full flow.
As to the , I haven't phoned the Council yet. If we used a humane trap I'm not sure we could get it through the house before you-know-who had spotted it and wanted it for a snack.

There have been some bad earthquakes today. Jim is blaming network errors.
I have set up an American sandwich page at A951482. It would be lovely if everyone could head over there and help me finish it .

I didn't think I was ever going to get logged in. Hootoo must be having more traffic than normal.
Off to the sandwich page. We forgot to mention the PBJ!

Still unseasonably warm in Salt Lake. But we apparently have snow due on Sunday. I will believe it when it is snarling traffic and piling up in my drive.
My coworkers are driving me insane. They are asking for assistance left and right without doing the needed research first. I don't mind helping them, but I would rather that they read something, anything, first.

The snow is settling nicely now, I just hope that H and the sons get home from w*rk without trouble.
According to their website, Homebase stock humane traps so I will go and get a couple tomorrow. Toc, I've never heard that mice like , but it would work for me in a trap

I just experienced an earthquake and I'm still feeling the aftershocks.

I've been trying to add something to the sandwich discussion but it won't post. So I'll put it here. Be sure and add Barbecue sandwiches.

I suppose these days we should call it being "Bruneled" but that doesn't have the same ring as alabastered
Anyway I havent been wasting my time this machine is now running Linux so this a bit of a test post.

This was not a complete waste for me either as I have been able to clean my monitor screen of the smudges from idiots who have to touch the monitor to show me what they are pointing to.

Being a Brit I feel severely underqualified given some of the American ones being discussed.
But Nothing beats a toasted bacon sarnie with HP sauce
