This little cutie is an early Christmas present to myself; I was lucky enough to win it on ebay at the beginning of the week and it arrived today. The seller’s listing described it as never having been displayed and it certainly does look new. It came in its original box with the original price ticket of £22 on it, and as I paid less than £5 I think that’s quite a bargain. It’s hard to tell from the photos but the tail is so well sculpted it looks almost real.
Life In The Mouse House 
It’s a lovely piece Eunice, well done on finding a bargain. It immediately reminded me of the cover of this year’s Countryfile calendar. When they were showing all the entries I picked out the cute mouse with the blackberries straight away as being the winner. I’m not a real life mouse lover but I do like ornaments and photos.

I just had to Google that calendar, the winning entry is certainly cute. I had a look through the others too and I see the one for August is two harvest mice – the bottom one of the two looks adorable. I also noticed that September’s photo is Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey – I’ve got some really good photos from there myself, maybe I should start entering a few competitions 🙂

Oh, that’s a cutie of a mouse. Someone enjoyed making the figurine enjoying itself in the berries. Congrats on winning it, Eunice!

Thanks Susie. Actually I was lucky to get it – I’d been looking on ebay for something else and decided to see if there were any mice listed before I closed the pc down for the evening This one was within an hour of ending so if I hadn’t checked I would have missed it.

Actually I thought about you the other day, there’s a new cafe opened up near where I work, it’s called Appletrees Cafe 🙂

You are good at grammar and punctuation. Should it be Apple Tree or Appletree ? I never know.

They are two separate words – both are nouns and in normal grammar you can’t usually join two nouns together to make one word, though obviously internet usernames and such like are an exception to the rule. The cafe sign struck me as being odd when I saw it – The Apple Tree Cafe would have looked and sounded much better. 🙂

Many thanks. I like your interpretation. Apple Tree it is.
