Glad to hear your plan 'A' went into action Mac
The rodents apparently after having a rather relaxed period are now getting very nervous now they know you're back

I spoke to Scott today he of the wonkey ankle...
It wasn't a toy...In a true manly accident that kept him off work for 4 months & now means he has to wear a brace on his ankle for the rest of his life...
He slipped on a Peppa Pig sticker book...
Broke bones in his heel & ripped the ligament off the bone...so apart from the pain the ankle is no longer stable hence the brace...
