Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Apparently ALL restaurants at Heathrow T5 are infested with mice, eat there at your peril

I start with my discussions with Hillingdon Council about mice at Heathrow Terminal 5. Put it this way, eat there at your peril. Then two companies that are technically insolvent, Technology Minerals (TM1) and Argo Blockchain (ARB)

Caffe Nero literally steals from me as the mice run across its floors

Living in the grim North means that catching an early morning flight from Heathrow is a bit of a bugger. The last train from Crewe got me to Terminal 5 at about midnight. Then I must wait almost five hours to get rid of my large bag and head through security. Thus, I find myself killing time at the only food and drink outlet open all hours, Caffe Nero. I start with the mice.

Photo article from the Welsh Hovel - Very fat cat in very small box

When stetched out, cat Quincey is really very large indeed. Supplementing his diet with numerous mice, rats and birds he is a true fat cat as I showed you the other day HERE. And that makes his love of trying to get into very small boxes make him look all the more ridiculous as you can see below.

A welcome addition to the wildlife diversity at the Greek Hovel...Hello Mr Cat

For some reason I awoke early this morning. It is probably the knowledge that the Mrs lands at 11.30 Greek Time and so I have a fair bit of scribbling to do to ensure that you get your daily dose of golden prose and poisonous malice. As is my wont I threw open the front door ahead of doing to an olive tree what only a man can do. With a speed my morbidly obese three legged cat Oakley could not even contemplate a small cat shot past me.

Wildlife diversity report from the Greek Hovel - day 5

I was hoping that the canisters which are meant to keep the snakes away would have arrived in Kambos today. I was told they would. Naturally they have not. This is Greece. "They will be here on Wednesday" means "There is no chance at all that they will be here on Wednesday". I am bloody well not moving up to the hovel without them.

My friend Nicho the communist asked why I was not yet resident in the the village and I explained. "You really are frightened of them aren't you" he said while laughing loudly. Fecking hell isn't everybody? Nicho then explained to a gaggle of Greek old men sipping ouzos what was happening and they all laughed too. Ha bloody ha. They all live in the village where there are no snakes, I dare them
