I left one triggered by mistake on the garden wall and it caught another mouse!

I cant kill something without good reason, so have used humane traps in the past and taken the fookers away once trapped.Mito Man wrote: ↑Mon Dec 16, 2019 3:29 pmJust found them in Homebase 2 for £9.

It was a brand new van with a bumper bar. The van braked sharply and my man locked up. It was dark and wet at the time.
To be fair, the first time I proper, seriously panic braked was in the Micra, which had no ABS.Jimexpl wrote: ↑Mon Dec 16, 2019 5:01 pmIt was a brand new van with a bumper bar. The van braked sharply and my man locked up. It was dark and wet at the time.
To be fair, I doubt many people understand the limitations of older cars these days when braking. Until now, the people who’d used it out of central London were experienced drivers.
Ta. After a couple of drives it went off but a few codes were stored. Have cleared those now so let’s see if they reappear:
Ha! Didn’t spot that one. (She is quite small)
Ha! OK, so we know what it is now. We'll schedule a date to sort it in the new year. (My Mondeo behaved exactly like that, and also a similar thing in the binnacle too).DeskJockey wrote: ↑Mon Dec 16, 2019 10:34 pm Have done some troubleshooting on the radio issue, as it was blasting away with the car off and locked. I used a scientific approach, taught to me by @Simon, to isolate the fault and am very sure it is the radio that's at fault.
When it is being daft and not responding to the on/off button, and has come on by itself, give it a great big thump on the left side of the driver's side dash trim. Cured the issue.

No bad option thereJimexpl wrote: ↑Mon Dec 16, 2019 3:35 pm I’m not replacing it straight away. Family and a larger home need to take priority. I’ll probably put my Mini or one of the Land Rovers into more regular use for a bit, and get myself back into a more interesting car that can squeeze two kids in occasionally (911 or Evora are the most likely).
