When I had mice they just pushed the steel wool out of the way. Gotta cover the hole with sheets of tin or wood. And get a cat 🙂 (I’m trying to help you here THL!)

The biggest challenge for an auditor is not to get drunk on the power…
Thinking back, those guys were pretty cool. There was one man who had been there 15 years and they called him “the new guy”. They said spending their days surrounded by unimaginable wealth got old very quickly and they spent most of the day bitching about how heavy gold is.
Ok, ok, tanzanite and diamonds is pretty tempting…
Bxgrl, will mine have sapphires, pretty please?? Would asking for dark blue ones be pushing my luck???
chicken, What a cool job! Yours, not the guys complaining!
I’ve seen rough and raw cut stones, too, fascinating really! Such little ‘lumps’ worth so much!

Cobble, I was guessing the special guest was Benson
I lived next door to a precious gems dealer once & he let me hold 3 stones – equal to 3 Rolls Royces & they looked like shards of a 7-Up bottle.

DH, Do you have steel wool for the holes no? Or that spray foam junk? I’ve been through that, it’s a pill.
Cobble, what can I say…I’ve been wanting my tiara and the possibility of getting one with tanzanite and diamonds is too much for my little heart!
Adam, that sucks about the car breaking down! Nice to meet you though!
Adam, were you the special guest last night?
