    What's living under the bath?

    I found some Pole Cats under the bath this morning. There's no doubt about it, they're definitely Pole Cats or Ferrets, they even talk to eachother with those little grunts and chirps. I can't for the life of my think how they got in. Does anyone think they are a Hob and a Jill?

    They look like Mink Mr B. Sometimes the parents will carry them in when they are young and then feed them in their new home.

    We live about 200yds or so from a beck as the crow flies but there's plenty of other houses closer to the beck. I guess they managed to find a way into ours so settled for a longer walk.

    Yep, I'd say Mink as well. Cute to look at but pretty nasty creatures in general. When you evict them, don't send them to my house please! Wife would go spare. That was you I said hi to at Cracoe today wasn't it Mr B?

    I had a blue Horsforth vest and a red cap on. I said hi to someone at the wall just below the fell side on my way back to the finish and thought it was you.

    A bloke from the council is coming round to set a trap some time, hopefully a humane trap.
