Well I suppose they are insects.
The instep on my left foot started itching last night, didn't pay too much attention to it. This morning I could hardly put my shoe on, 2 nasty bites/lumps. They itch like murder and they are driving me crazy.

No m'dear they did not whistle:
December 1966 ? the world would never be the same again! A band of strangely dressed men with odd looking instruments leapt on stage at the ?Royal Oak Inn? Nailsea, Somerset and proceeded to record a ?live? album for the EMI record company. This was Adge Cutler & The Wurzels? first LP and it sold in massive numbers, quickly followed by a single which charted nationally and then an EP ?Scrumpy & Western? ? this was the start of a musical revolution that is still going strong over 40 years later! noooo: noooo: noooo:
But Adge?s reign as King of Scrumpy & Western music ended abruptly and tragically. On Sunday 5th May 1974 came the shattering news that Adge had died in the early hours when his car overturned at a roundabout approaching the Severn Bridge. He was returning alone to his new house at Tickenham from a successful week of shows in Hereford. The eulogies made were numerous, but in the end Adge Cutler was just a true countryman: a Somerset man who knew his homeland, its characters and their foibles. The wit of his lyrics encouraged Somerset folk to laugh at themselves. He was that rare bird ? a born entertainer, just slightly bemused even to the end that his little songs had brought so much pleasure to so many people

Sorry ~ mixed them up with the Yetties who do come from Dorset.
