Mild winter. Very mild winter. The only safe thing to do is to nuke them from orbit.

A couple of weeks ago, I had one fly out of the fireplace.

Big bugger so possibly a queen?

Anyway, it's RIP now so hopefully no wasps in Bedfordshire this year.

I noticed loads of little bitey flys at the stables yesterday, seemed a bit early in the year for them to be annoying me

Been saying hello to swarms of little flies all winter here, whenever I go down the garden.

Not bitey though. If you are nice to them they don't bite you.

They were discussing this very thing on Radio Scotland this morning while I was driving to Glasgow.

Some daft cow was talking about 'global warming' and made the statement that 'A bee was spotted in Banchory in the third week in February'

I phoned in an pointed out that if it was 'spotted' it wasn't a bee, because they're 'stripey' but for some reason they didn't take me seriously....

I had a dream the other night that there was this super badass hornet breed in the UK, because of the mild winter. They had blue bottoms, and were deadly. One sting, and you're mortalled.

I am just having a cheese sandwich and off to bed so I can dream the second installment when Doogie gets 100 stings on his arse.

So you are hoping to dream about my bum? I guess "stinging" is symbolic of something else.
