        That is just terrible, Adam.  I'm so sorry you're having to deal with that.

            I’m sorry too Adam. That’s nuts…. but I don’t think this is a mouse. I think Rat.

            Maybe so. Maybe not

              It's probably something bigger than a mouse.

              The marten causes millions of dollars worth of damage every year in Germany.  I never heard of them until I moved here.

                  It seriously is hilariously ridiculous.

                  And yeah, I’ve come to accept it’s probably a rat with as much damage as it has done - although I’ve seen field mice chew through concrete, so who knows they are capable of.

                                  @Appfaff this is the only way to be sure…

                                  Meanwhile, here's the conclusion from the coding test saga.

                                  I spent four or five days working on problems for a couple of companies. Since they were basically asking the same thing (download data from a website, and display it), I wrote a very generic solution, that could be extended. This is because I'm lazy, and developers generally lack imagination.

                                  For those of you who're code monkeys, my app made heavy use of generics (templates for those who do C++) and abstract / virtual classes.

                                  I got turned down by one of the companies today. The feedback was that I'm obviously very clever, but I didn't do what they were looking for.

                                  My translation: We don't have a fecking clue what he was doing, so we don't want to hire him. (I find a lot of programmers don't really get the more abstract end of object oriented design.)

                                            Not sure if this is worth anything but:

                                            We've been taking the dog hair and dander out of the vacuum cleaner and leaving it in tufts around the garden. Keeps the vermin out because they smell a large predator. Might be worth trying to scare it out of your car?

                                            I know I owe you a box of dog treats Appfaff. Sorry. Jody hasn't made a large batch in forever.

                                            I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose
