Lizards are not so bad - wait until Sammy brings in live mice, which escape and hide under the fridge, mortally wounded, and the smell gets terrific! What do you mean by northern Umbria - Citta di Castello ish? Umbria is quite big, and for me southern Umbria means Terni or below!

Thanks for all your responses, very kind of you all. I'm near Umbertide. Trapping the lizard that dashed under the bookcase was comical, me lying in wait with an empty ice cream carton, and hubby fishing it out with a feather duster! No rats or mice yet, hopefully it will stay that way.

Jackie I see Monte Acuto in your picture and we share a similar view from the road up to Preggio so no doubt our paths will cross. We nearly always go to Umbertide market on Wednesday mornings which seems to be the local gathering point. Welcome to the patch.

Hi, you're right, that is Monte Acuto, we see the quarried side. Maybe we will meet you at some point on market day, we usually check out Books for Dogs!
