This morning at work the big story is the ‘fare’ (mouse in English) that entered the front door at work chased by a cat. The ladies were not very calm and collected. Serkan and I chased it out of the office using broomsticks. I then did what any good country-grown Aussie would have done and ensured the mouse did not see any more of its current life. The other workers were not impressed but I was happy to see the end of the ‘fare’. The air freshener has already had a spray.

I hardly see any mice in Turkey. I can’t recall observing a mouse previously. There are many stray cats so the mice don’t usually have a chance. Here, Rats outnumber the mice.
