My mate's just been to fill up his old Merc's coolant..........
He runs an old scrapper and so just fills the coolant with water when the level goes down, it's going for scrap in two months anyway.
Today he went to fill it, put water from the tap into his watering can and started pouring and something plopped into the filler pipe.
He thought it might be a leaf or something, so he was able to get hold of it with a pair of tweezers and it turns out to be a mouse, dead.
Now I wonder if mice are good coolant material..............?
