    If you can hear it from upstairs, it ain't a mouse.

    It could be a big mouse.

    The old fashioned wooden traps caught us a whole family of mice in November.

    If it's a burglar remember; if you go downstairs and kill them you could be done but if they come upstairs, let the boys play.

    I have all the doors wide open though, so it's a fairly quiet robber if it's one of those.

    Stand at the top of the stairs masturbsting furiously, while shouting I am the backwards man, I have notified the internet.

    A mouse is better for Windows.

    Off topic, but that's the worst thing in case of fire - you really should close all doors before going to bed.

    Could be santa.

    Hide under the covers. If you can't see him, he can't see you

    What you need BM is a cat burglar to like, you know, get rid of the mouse and all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,668 ✭✭✭greedygoblin


    Have you figured out what it is yet BM?

    Must be a mouse, very quiet down there this last ten minutes or so

    Are your doors without handles. Have you difficulty In opening them. I suggest closing the doors and investing in 3-in-1 oil.

    I could sing Air Supply down the stairs at them, that could work on either one.

    It's a windy night you fool. You mustn't have battened down the hatches (whatever that phrase means).

    Like all good phrases including 'keeping your eye on the ball' it's a nautical one:
