I imagine they thought her bum represented some sort of danger to them. How would I know, I know not the mind of a wasp.

Anyhoo I tried to deal with them but that didn't go too well.  noooo:

Thought I had better call pest control since their nest is in our garden shed. ?50!!

Disaster strikes!

Mrs Nick, still gardening at 1.00 disturbs a wasps nest  noooo:

She arrives screaming in the kitchen. 11 stings all on her bum  razz:

She made me douse it in vinegar.

The Boy said this put him off his lunch  lol:

She can't sit down  razz:

Quite so. I can't pronounce the name of the place we are going to, so we are using the SatNav to avoid having to ask directions.

I spose Wales has a satellite  rubschin:


Yes it does support Sat Nav as badly as everywhere else.
I could tell you how to pronounce the name of the place but it will get you into more trouble than even you are used to. Just remember in Welsh the stress on syllables is not as it is in English. With the town you are going to the stress is on the middle syllable and that is where the problem lies.
As phonetically as I can manage to write it it is pronounced M'c unt clith. Now run it all together with the stress on the middle of the word and you are getting somewhere near to Mrs Nick slapping you and The Boy having a fit of hysterical laughter ~ but you will sound as if you are trying to learn the language for which the natives will lurve you
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

That wouldn't surprise me. It's a 4* hotel FFS. Shampoo, soap, irons, the lot. Will she listen?
