"May the cheese be with you!"

These wild mice appear to be getting set for this year's Star Wars Day.

Sci-fi fan Simon Dell mocks up hilarious scenes in his Sheffield garden and waits for the critters to interact with them.

He says: "I take many photos of the mice to post on their own Facebook page called 'George the Mouse in the Log Pile House'."

"Being a fan of Star Wars, this week's theme is being ready for May the 4th."

Star Wars Day is an informal holiday celebrating the date's pun-like similarity to the film's catchphrase "May the Fourth be with you"."

Simon says: "The setting is a whole mouse village all built around and on a log pile packed tight with moss and a mossy covering where the mice live deep inside in handmade nest boxes all linked with a system of tubes."

"They have everything from a village pub to a school, a store and even a bakery. Everything is handmade by myself, often from recycled materials. If I can think it up I can make it mouse size and I often do."

"Like most wildlife, the mice come for food; often peanuts and seeds, but I do use a little rub of peanut butter to get them interested in my little props."

"I've always loved Star Wars and still have fond memories of my toys as a child in the 70s."



"I am 51 years young and still very much in touch with my inner child."
