Something kept getting into our work kitchen, first it nibbled my bagels (not a euph), then some noodles, then it knocked over a cup which smashed and finally it got into the tea. That was the last straw, so I set up a GoPro on timelapse and found it was a Glis Glis, an edible dormouse, protected under the 1981 wildlife act (or so I thought) and exceptionally cute. Anyway the pest man commeth and within about 20 minutes of putting a trap in the roof cavity he's caught it. I ask him what he'll do with it 'Kill it' he replied. Apparently as it's a non-native species, it can't be released. You just have to notify Natural England where it's been caught and then you can kill it. So I'm feeling a bit guilty now. RIP Eddie.
