This morning as we got ready to go to the airport, Grace saw a mouse running around the house.
She was worried that I didn't believe her, but I did. We also found some droppings, so there was definitely no doubt!
We had to rush off to the train, to get to the tube, to get to Heathrow. A bit of a mission, especially when the tube has to wait for 10 mins in a tunnel for a space on the platform. The same distance could have been walked overground in about 5 mins.
Getting from Heathrow tube station to the Terminal was another mission. Several long tunnels with travelators. It felt like we were never going to get there. But we made it, and found Allyson and Paul (and Paul's brother David and soon-to-be-wife Emma - they are over for the wedding).
We got our suitcase that Allyson and Paul had kindly dragged all the way from Auckland (via Thailand, Melbourne and Singapore) using their "Gold" frequent flyer benefits of excess luggage allowance :-)
On our way home we bought some mouse traps to attempt to catch the little vermin. It was like Christmas all over again when we unpacked all our (mainly winter clothing) things, having forgotten what we had packed in there.
