There's A Rat In My Kitchen.....

Fri Oct 20, 2006 8:14 pm: "So we're sitting down to our Jesters Pies and our BBs muffins for our takeaway dinner tonight and we notice a big fat maggot on the table, eeeeewwwww! We assume it's from the newspaper that's been left out overnight and bought in tonight and thrown on the table, because we sometimes get an earwig or two in them, we hiff it outside and continue our dinner.

We find another one on the Jester's box and we wonder - the place hasn't even been open for a week, surely not? L4 gets stopped from dipping his potato into his sauce because there's a big fat maggot crawling in it! Hiff the sauce and wedges and frantically search for the Jesters number to give them a ring. As we're searching another maggot is spotted crawling along the floor. This is foul. The Lad goes out to check the newspaper and wrapping and finds only the obligatory earwig, while he's out there a maggot falls onto L9's muffin, yep - falls!

Another one on the Jesters box and another one crawling across the tablecloth. This is too disgusting and too much for us to handle, even A11 is put off finishing his dinner.

The Lad decides he has to check out the roof cavity in case there is a dead something up there and the maggots are falling through the cracks in our ancient villa's ceiling - "While I'm changing out of my work clothes, can someone please bring me a shovel, some flyspray and a sturdy bag" is the request when he gets down from his initial inspection. OMG! So *that's* where the rat disappeared to from our kitchen......"

(We still haven't been able to get Jester's Pies since!)
