Yes but it can't be the same mouse you saw as a kid though can it? :) Chris lindylou 12-15-2006, 02:27 PM Someone pointed it out to me once. Can't be dead certain exactly where it is though. I've sort of got a vague idea. PhilipG 12-15-2006, 02:32 PM It gets pointed out on the guided tours, but I'm going to need to be reminded. :) ChrisGeorge 12-15-2006, 03:06 PM Hmmmmmm.... are we talking about a real mouse or a carved mouse??? theninesisters 12-15-2006, 03:14 PM I know the location! Me Me Me! :celb (23): matt 12-15-2006, 04:10 PM We're all talking about a carved/forged one Chris. We've obviously stumbled on your hobby of chasing rodents around religious buildings LOL!! :unibrow: ChrisGeorge 12-15-2006, 04:54 PM Thanks for clarifying, Matt! Chris PhilipG 12-22-2006, 12:27 PM Matt. Are you going to tell all now? Or do we have to start guessing? Is it on a famous statue? ChrisGeorge 12-22-2006, 12:44 PM Matt. Are you going to tell all now? Or do we have to start guessing? Is it on a famous statue? ". . . the architect of Lord Derby's tomb claimed that no self-respecting church mouse would live there. As a result, he incorporated a mouse into the design of the tomb - it's just under Lord Derby's pillow." http://wikitravel.org/en/Liverpool lindylou 12-22-2006, 01:10 PM I thought it was on a tomb .. but I didn't want to say incase I was wrong and made a fool of myself !:D It was in the back of my mind - but I wouldn't have known who was in the tomb. :) PhilipG 12-22-2006, 01:22 PM Same here, Lindy. I knew it had something to do with Lord Derby, but couldn't remember the story. Thanks, Chris. Ged 01-03-2007, 10:29 AM I saw a kid in there - about 1989, I went back last year for the first time since and it's a fully grown goat now.
