    What made me smile today, constantly farting as I bent over to mix cement – its official, I’m getting old!

    James, walking down the tinned food isle in Morrisons, popping a bunny every other step, trying to be tuneful, ruined by giggling!:D

    Not sure I’d want to meet a peeved one. So they’re an annual visitor down your way then?

    Every year for the last 15 years.

    I peeved one three years ago when I stepped on it with bare feet. It managed to sting and bite me between my little toe and it’s mate. I then invented four new swear words, one of which was 74 letters long:eek::eek:
    My fault, it was hunting on the floor for insects singed by an external porch light that I had left on all night.

    If you get too close to their nest (within a metre) they will warn you by flying (gently) into your face. This I only ever did once. They are reluctant to sting humans. They also keep the wasp population down.

    No, they’re not aggressive at all, they are the most chilled out insect I’ve ever known. There’s one currently chewing up my wooden bench and converting it into it’s living accommodation as we speak. I found another in the house this morning, hitched up in a net curtain, cat wouldn’t engage in combat, just sat watching it near a door way. Anyway, caught then released outdoors and I still have no idea where the latest nest is.
