My Devo slump keeps on rollin,

#3. Just realised the bank I have to go to today is in Cooma, not Jindy and doesn’t open until 9:30am. I’ll be lucky to get my first slide of the season by midday.

#4. It’s been wet with drizzle in the village all weekend I’m told. Brown patches on open runs and the snow was very soft in the arvo Sun/Mon.

Can’t be sure… there is a 50/50 chance and you know what Murphy’s law is like.

By then I’m sure someone will have a camera strapped to ‘em for me (and everyone else who likes my vids) Isn’t that right Chucky?

He manage to get out and take off…...... So now the hunt is on grrr

i went to get some rice bubbles once, as i was walking to get a bowl i could feel the box moving. so i dumped the box upside down into the sink, 4 big mouses and a baby one jump out into the sink. 2 escaped the sink but 2 were stuck.

So with my superman type reflexes a whip off a shoe, slam the 2 in the sink with said shoe, then take off aftr the other 2.

2 days later i had found and killed the last 2.

I love catching mice!!!
My best ever was 7 between 8:00pm and Midnight, one trap. Snap, reset, snap and so on.
I have a trap that keeps them alive, so I drown them and feed them to my pet turtle, Gary. He was full after three, so the rest went to the Kookaburras.

They have been light on the last few years but building in numbers again. Trixy the Boarder Collie is a trained professional at rodent capture and killing, she has been bring plenty home the last few weeks. shaka

we had a rat in our house once. bought a big f#*koff rat trap and set it. middle of the night we hear it go off and then a scraping noise.

me and the old man run down stairs to see this monster rat, half his head trapped in the trap trying to run away. not chance mate, hammer comes out and bam. one squashed rat head.

had a tail on it as thick as my thumb and about 300-400mm’s long.

so many stories about the little suckers!!!

I had one of those traps that keep em alive!!!!! I used to walk across the road and release them outside the dickhead neighbours house!!!!!

One time I remember goin to put some fruit and bread out for the possums that we feed, and there was a rat about half the size of a brush tail possum, sittin in the feed box!!!!! Got one of the bread rolls out and threw a perfect pitch that knocked the sucker off the box and 30 feet into the bush!!!!!

Though I will never forget the time that I let my Bull Terrier into the house to see how she would react to a field mouse that I had just saw runnin around the back of the TV!!!!! I let her in….... and she ran amok!!!!!! She was smashin in to things, knockin stuff over, and I couldn’t stop her!!!!! Not funny at the time!!!!!!
