Mouse in the House

A farcical catch-the-mouse caper from award-winning comic writer Russell Ayto.

Mr and Mrs Homeowner have a mouse in their house, and they want it gone. Mr Bosh – big chief mouse-catcher, and Mr Bumble – assistant mouse-catcher (wearing shoes that squeak like a mouse) arrive on the scene. They try all the old tricks: setting a trap, bringing in a (big!) cat, inviting an elephant round… but the mouse is always one step ahead.
