Man has 2,000 mice as pets

A man in Wales let his house become overrun by his 2,000 pet mice. Apparently they roamed free throughout his house, nestled chairs, under the carpet, in his sofa and even in his bath.

According to the story, the rodents were taken away and housed with a local animal sanctuary, but the man – in his 30s – was allowed to keep two of them as pets, and it wasn’t long before his two little mousey friends had become another monster brood of 500.

“Why they let him keep two is beyond belief,” commented a neighbour, “They could at least have made sure they were both the same sex.”

The man is no longer permitted to keep mice as pets, it was reported.

Online bingo for cash – play from home

I’m getting really into playing online bingo for cash at the moment. It’s cheap, and great fun to play – I’ve even had a couple of wins. Nothing huge, but enough to make it worthwhile.]

But it’s really not about the winning, it’s about the taking part. While you play there’s an online chat facility that lets you talk to other gamers as the numbers are drawn. Everyone I’ve met there has been really nice – very friendly and welcoming and quick to wish each other luck.

If you’ve got a little time to spare I’d definitely recommend giving it a go. A lot of sites give you free credit when you first join, so you lose nothing by having a shot.
