OH CBW that rat pic is a classic!!

and phil... rat wee is highly dangerous to humans! YUK...!

Yep wheels disease you can die from it, horrible little sods. I don't know if squiggles carry it, though.

I think I would crap myself if I was confroted by that necro-rat on taking the cover off a CU.

EDIT: sorry didn't see page 2. Weils.

we had to move a old shed about 4 of us as soon as we lifted it (4 biggish guys) and all these rats started to run out in all directions needless to say shed got dropped and 4 manly guys legged it
 
Did a job in the roof of a water pump station at Goring, took me three different work permits to get in. Wish they'd been as strict with the squirrels that left about 3 wheel barrows of c@@p.
 
I was rummaging around the loft and moving a box with some old wylex fuses
I saw something thought whats that picked it up realised it was a decomposing mouse chucked it as soon as i realised what it was nasty!
 
When I had the shop the little beggars kept eating the crisps. I put some red lights in the stockroom (they can't see in red light..... and I needed the money) and did a few night shifts with the old air rifle, got loads of them. Probably would have done the whole colony on the first night if it werent for boredom and merlot.

Ha ha! Well I did drink a fair bit of the profits, but I saw the business going bad with the superarkets taking the mic etc. I had 2 franchises off Thresher which I set up as specialist wine shops which would have been fine, but there was a hell of a lot of pressure from them to turn into a budget booze style shop which would never take on the supermarkets, coupled with the fact that i got hauled through the courts on licence charges when one of my staff served Trading standards old-looking-teenagers (the fella was eighteen the day after the sting FFS) when I was 150 miles away at the time. So I had enough, flogged my franchises back to Thresher for far more than I paid for them, and a few years later the whole company wet bust. Ha ha nobs!
 
hahahaha!! you got stung...!

i remember been the cause of a local corner shop near loosing its license! i had fake id and The police happened to drive past as i walked out with 50 quids worth of booze! they stopped and asked me about it... i denied the ID and the daft owner behind counter got investigated for selling to 16 year old and also then got arrested for selling non duty Tabs!! hahahahaha!

lol I didn't lose me licence in the end, in fact I still have my peronal licence till 2014 I believe. I look pretty fat of it, mind!

We were pretty vigilant in the shops most of the time, but I understand the teenager's need to drink. I was 6'1" with a beard at 13, so I was pished for most of the time as I'm sure you can imagine....
