The Tale of an Industrious Mouse

Many of us – in the UK at least -have seen the video of the hard-working, meticulous mouse who has every night been busily tidying up the workbench in a garden shed. Being Country Mice ourselves, we get field mice here in the house from time to time. Not one of them has ever offered to tidy up. Where have we gone wrong?

  8. So many good news! Congratulations on the new addition to your family and a heartfelt thank you for this magnificent share. I think i could have viewed this little film too but i didn‘t and now I’m glad to have done it on your blog. Have a super-splendid and wonderful time in Spain. Enjoy every moment of this time, so fleeting and always too short.
