At last a mouse prisoner of war or rather a hostage-Mrs Meister Maus taken in the humane trap this morning. She was very calm about her predicament and ate a whole lump of cheese whilst awaiting release. We played with the idea of relaesing a video on Borders TV with our reasonable demands:
(a) All mice to be withdrawn from the house by 6.00 AM tomorrow
(b) Release of all human prisoners held by the Meister Maus Gang
(c) Undertaking of complete evacuation of the Merse, verified by a team of UN observers headed by Rosie the Cat. By Christmas.
In the end the Liberals in the local regime prevailed. Mrs MM was unconditionally released into the kirk yard.
I suspect we will see her again. And her husband is still at large.
