The Fears of a Rodent Breeding Hermitfreak

I've just read a story about a man in a nursing home being eaten alive by mice. It's the stuff my nightmares are made of. What if the rodents escaped from their tank and started on me one night?

Breaking the Habit of a Lifetime

I can be a selfish cow at times.

Specifically, when it comes to restaurants. I like to have a little list of 'best-kept secrets', where you can wow people with your spectacular taste. I thought if I told lots of people about my little finds, they'd become ridiculously busy and henceforth would become ridiculously rubbish.

Well I shot myself in the foot there, didn't I? Two of my teeny gems have closed down in the past 6 months, because no-one was going to them. Nice work, badger.

So, I'm going to break the habit of a lifetime. Last night, the Dirty Smoking Drinking Western Girls recreated their Moroccan adventure here, and very fine it was too. Better than fine, actually. I floated out of there on a cloud made mainly of mint tea and happiness.

Form an orderly queue, everyone, cos if it closes down I'm holding you responsible.
