Christmas decorations...and a rat

Hi Guys,

I haven't heard from you, but I expect you are busy.

 

I have been busy making some Christmas decorations.  Roger cut out the shapes and I have decorated them so Sandra and Roger can hang them on their Christmas tree when they put it up.   What do you think of them?

Now, I will tell you a story.   Do you remember Doug had a rat called Muis?   He was a very nice fellow.   JP was not very fond of Muis but he learned that he must not harm him...so now he does not harm the rats that come to eat the chicken food.   In fact he just steps over them if they are in his way. 

There are two rats that live in my garden...I think Chris may have caught one in a trap, but certainly, there is still one that I see every day.   This rat eats food and runs round the trap quite happily - it is much too smart to get caught ...see picture below.   It is a very nice mannered rat and I am very fond of it.   But one day it will have to be killed as it will have hundreds of babies and the neighbours will not be amused. See the rat in top right corner?

So you see - the rat in the top corner and the trap in the bottom left...and it seems that never the two will meet.
