Ratty

I meant to post this earlier but walked into a malstrom of conversations about mobile phones, direct debits not being paid and how much the Not Children hated their Mother at the moment (with good reason) when I got home. It is ridiculous that they were still so dependent on her at their ages but I'm not allowed to say that, or not within earshot anyway. My brother got the full download later when I caught up with him. My SiL also found it incredulous. I like my SiL. 

The evening was topped off when one of the Kitkats brought in a rat. Luckily dead but still warm. They both looked sheepish (rattish?) so I'm not sure who it was. I think the Ginger One as the Stripey One usually leaves his kill in the biscuit bowl (or runs round the house with it in his mouth) and this was in the middle of the dining room floor. Luckily I found it before my cleaner.
