Pied Piper Wanted
Just read on the online news that parts of New South Wales is overrun by mice.
It's so bad that the crop has been contaminated, people's homes are overrun.
Anyone want a cat or two?

Re: Pied Piper Wanted
Hi Vic.
You wouldn't believe the numbers, they can eat a silo of grain overnight. The farmers pleaded with the State Govt for help the Minister said we can't help everyone, then two days later realizing that there was a by election in a farming seat, he come on TV and said there is $50 million to help the poor farmers, a little bit late considering that this plague has been going on for months.
Example, the farmer throws a sheet of tin on the mice, jumps up and down and he has killed about a hundred mice, they have even shown cats with mice sitting on their head, talk about having a gutful.
