Are you sitting comfortably?

Then I'll begin.^*

Out in the garden yesterday, peaceably hoeing and weeding and dead-heading and harvesting, I experienced a sharp pain in my posterior. Twice.

Upon retreating to the house to divest myself of my trousers, I found a dozy but disgruntled wasp. Not half as disgruntled as I was, however. And the lodger was also suitably perturbed. More than suitably, in fact, pressing upon me large doses of steroids and threatening me with the application of my Epipen. I managed to calm him down sufficiently to avoid the unnecessary Epipen, but did (I confess) acquiesce to the steroids just in case.

And I am not sitting comfortably this morning.

The amazing thing is how far the insects get before making their presence known!
