Sorry 'bout the rats. I don't suppose you'd be interested in the old Royal Navy recipe for 'Millers in Onion Sauce' that I have in a cookbook? No, didn't figure so. (The midshipmen called rats 'millers' because they typically caught them in the bread locker covered in flour.)

Homeownership does have its downside. I repair my wooden fence every spring, and one of these years I'm going to have to replace both it and the outer wrought iron one. (I need two. Pool.)
