😂

I stand corrected 😂

That's good to know, because as far as I can see I have neither spawn nor tadpoles. Though mine was frogspawn. Two lots just seemed to disappear, and I don't think it was eaten by predators as I thought I had protected the sink pretty carefully.

The trouble with traps and poison is that unless you block all the entry points, more mice will just keep coming in.

I just looked up and saw a mouse in the middle of the floor just staring at me 😮 I have no idea where it has come from, but hopefully not come from your place KK!!! ETA: And it had better go away again PDQ!!!

Please don't use glue traps 😢 You need to find and block all their entry points if possible. It might be worth gritting your teeth and employing a pest control expert? I'm sure I've seen some recommended on here for mice in the past. Also, be scrupulous about not leaving any food or crumbs about, and put things in mouse proof containers. Or get another cat (sorry to hear yours are no more). Or train your dog to be a mouser 🤣

"Satanic Freemasons control this world". 😂😂😂 I didn't get this leaflet, but I wish I had. I'm going to download it, print it, and put it on my fridge 😂

I didn't go into the main part of the shop except to go to and from Argos and then to go out.

Hooray! They have parked! Thanks everybody. ETA: All completed now, thank goodness!

If the situation is the same on Monday then yes Geobear will have to do that. I have no idea why they don't already, but they work all over the place so it probably isn't feasible for them to save a space in advance themselves.

Unfortunately no it wasn't sorted. The car driver didn't return and Geobear eventually had to leave - with their massive van parked round the corner - because we couldn't get sufficient space near enough to my house. They waited until the very last minute but then they couldn't have got the job done in time even had the car owner come back. A space became available on the other side of my car which we saved with a bin hoping that the car the other side of that might move, but that caused my neighbour to shout and swear at me when he returned and couldn't park, though I was trying to explain why the bin was there. My other lovely neighbours have now saved spaces the other side with cones and a pallet. Re people saving space outside their house, for some weeks I have been doing that when I've driven to my allotment, purely because I knew Geobear were coming in the near future but I didn't know exactly when. Unfortunately the original day they were due a month or so back was when Thames Water were doing emergency work outside my house due to a burst sewer which flooded mine and my neighbours' cellars and filled the area in front of my bay with sewage 😭 ETA:Geobear had a smaller van which they have parked behind my car the other side in the hope that one way or another we can find enough space. Extremely luckily and unexpectedly, they are coming back on Monday, so it's fingers crossed all round now. In a bid for sympathy, I will add that this insurance claim was first made in July 2018, following which there have been innumerable errors and delays. The job should have taken six weeks. At one point I had to live in my kitchen for five months or else go to bed. I was ill at the time 😭 And then after it was supposedly finished, the cracking reappeared in the same places. As you might imagine, I have been extremely stressed.

I know that. It is up to the insurance company to sort that out, not me!

They aren't allowed to do that.

Thanks it was some time before the mosque I think

Does anybody own or know who does a grey VW Golf reg CA20 JYO parked in Ulverscroft Road? I have been saving three car spaces needed for access today by Geobear to do resin injection under my bay. Somebody has moved a bin which was clearly marked with the reason why it was in the road, and Geobear cannot park. I have posted on our road's WhatsApp group but I'm pretty sure it doesn't belong to anybody in the street. ETA: I have been waiting over a year for this further remedial work to be done 😭😭😭

Agreed, but do it soon as they may not keep the recording very long. Good luck from me too!

Have the threads on this forum about the Royal Mail delivery issues locally completely passed you by? If all your mail is being delivered daily and none of it has been delayed, you must be about the only lucky person in this area :)
