    I’m a microbiologist and here’s what (and where) I never eat

    Honestly, though, to those people who think the writer is being paranoid - try a bout of food poisoning- it's truly vile! I had it years ago - the only one in the family to get sick.

    Woman discovers a 'living decoration' in her Christmas tree!

    Oh, I see what you mean. Yes, when the first possum fell down the chimney we had to get a roofer to come and place a metal mesh screen into the chimney. It's a two storey building and very high. The ceiling ventilators have always been an issue in this house - maybe round here the possums...
