On the television last night, during the News report outside the Prime Ministers residence in London, a rat is seen scurrying past the door of number 10 Downing Street!

Now I know this is going to give Mike an opportunity to wade in but in the interests of Health (which is topical right now) I just couldn't resist.

Don't be too hard on them now Mike. Lol

Someone was mentioning they were on the incline in the cities these days due to the dumpsters along the streets not being continually cleaned and their tops closed down tight. But we got them out here also as they dig up fields constantly to build housing projects on the land above their burrows. We use to have an red fox paid them an visit..but even he don't come back any more with the recent huge house addition. The land is farily well all cemented over these days.
