MICE IN THE PALACE
Buckingham Palace has called in a pest control squad to tackle a plague of mice said to have left the Queen “horrified”. Officials decided to get help with the problem after a rat was spotted racing through the kitchens. One source said: “Staff in the lower quarters especially have become quite used to seeing little brown mice tearing along the corridors. There isn’t a huge amount that can be done, but pest control did come in to put down poison and examine the problem.” IN addition, the staff, particularly kitchen workers, were given elementary training in how to stop the rodents spreading.
* If I were the Queen, I’d start ordering out.
* Mice are attracted to food, particularly grain. Probably Camilla’s feed bag.
