I remember that incident very well. Given that I'm partially sighted, I certainly appreciate utility companies/contractors being taken to task about unsafe work.

Every rodent i've ever had has destroyed anything plastic / wood, i've always kept them in metal cages (hamsters) or glass tanks full of sawdust (gerbils).

The cage the other gerbils are in is made largely of plastic and they've scratched at it, but not damaged it at all. That one has been occupied since before Christmas.
I'd expect it to last longer than a fortnight.

I suppose it depends how aggressive they are or how much they feel the need to gnaw, mine would usually obliterate anything plastic within a week.

Well they were moved from the other cage to this one and they'd not damaged that one at all.
I really don't expect a £40 tank to have been destroyed in two weeks, it isn't fit for purpose, we'll see what the supplier says.

I feel like complaining to Blacks about their ANNOYING habit of saving the website images as compressed JPGs... THEY LOOK CRAP!

I have a right mind to write a written complaint to South Eastern after today.
I went to the cinema today to watch a couple of films with my mate, so looked up train times before I went. The site said there was one at 6 past the hour, every hour. Anyway, to cut it short, I got to the station and sat down (at 5:45ish). 20 minutes later... no train. 30 minutes later... no train. By now its 6:15 and the train should have been there 9 minutes ago. So I phone up National Rail and they say there aren't any trains running at all?! WTF?! There wasn't any signs or anything at the unmanned station, and the electric board thing just said "Welcome to Cuxton".
