Mice are horrid critters, we had an infestation for awhile. At first we went the humane route and then quickly went to the dark side and relished the snap of the trap. Spiders....ugg.

MJ my dear...I'm sure that darn Banister Abbey will cut you a break soon. She really is a lovely gal. Might I suggest our newest guily pleasure? Fireball. A potent Whisky with the familiar flavor of Red Hots. Very few bad things can penetrate the psyche of someone juiced up on a shot or two of well chilled Fireball.

Bannister has got everything but alligators. <br /><br />Its amazing, your children at such a young age are ready for the night club scene. With that snake skin jacket, Lucien could get into any exclusive one of his choice. And Coco with her booty slap dance routine down pat, could make big bucks dancing in them. Picture big marqee sign emblazoned with 'Coco a Gogo' <br /><br />Oh!! the wallet puncturing discoveries you find when renovating an old house. Better start researching which chapter of bankrupcy to file.

One afternoon, my husband (who worked from home) created his own humane trap to catch one: he put a cube of Gouda in a glass jar turned on its side and waited. The city mouse went in there, gave that cheese cube a whiff and buggered off. So much for the old myth that mice like cheese...<br /><br />When I lived in Taiwan, I saw some spiders big enough to kick my ass... Six months after I had left the country, I still had the reflex to check my pillow for uninvited guests in the middle of the night... Creepy.<br /><br />But hey, looks like I didn't have to move that far for some zoological enterntainment: Seattle would have done the job!:)Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360905353598716073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3480383418556368648.post-68411082987781274382012-09-01T07:16:31.414-07:002012-09-01T07:16:31.414-07:00Go online and find episodes of a British show call...Go online and find episodes of a British show called "Restoration Home" where Brits with a lot of spare cash buy old estates or churches and attempt to renovate them. After which they have NO spare cash. I say "attempt" because in at least 50% of the programs (2nd season just ending) the renovations are incomplete by the end of the year the program has been filming them. (The other half are really quite impressive.) You'll feel much better about B.A. after you see a guy living in a ruined castle with its roof collapsing and old 18th century reeds used as "insulation". Although I don't know that anyone found any dead birds or poisonous spiders on those projects, so you might win there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3480383418556368648.post-33173809381399727342012-09-01T00:25:10.677-07:002012-09-01T00:25:10.677-07:00Spiders.

In fact, it sounds like you could use a cat.
