Bit like fossil fuels, CFC's plastics, and now we are told "bad"

Heard today talk of people having a new disease, video game playing. It will literally change the way the planet develops? Zombie Apocalypse!!!!

I'm not a million miles from you billy and we come across these small wasp nest quite often in our trees and bushes, we have a old one in the combe above our front door it was there when we moved in thirty years ago and I've never seen a wasp go near it but it is big, like the mother ship of all wasp nests. Don't do what my old boss did though to the one in his attic, sprayed it wilth paraffin and set light to it, the wasps left and the plasterer moved in to replace the ceiling . As a youngster I served my first apprenticeship as a butcher and was intrigued by the way wasps cut pieces of beef out of a hind quarter of beef hanging in the shop, small neat cubes, the lucky ones got away with it but most were squigged by a big handed flat knife blade. Live and let live was my motto and I joined the army!!!
