Baby, It's Cold Outside.

Cold, dark and miserable to be precise. So we've been indoors for most of the day.

In weather like this you learn to provide your own entertainment, today it was The Hunting of the Shrew.. I was just sitting down to catch up with the papers when out of the corner of my eye I caught a movement on the sofa - a mouse!

All the house resources were brought into play to catch the offending vermin. The sofa was stripped, hoovered and placed upside down and as I took the base fabric off,Ruaridh The King of the Hunters dived underneath and dispatched a little velvety shrew.


It's never dull in the country.
