Sorry to hear that Bandit is feeling a little peaky and that you're not so good yourself.:grouphug: As for queen hornets - you don't want one of them as they will attract their friends:eek: I was lying on the chair in the dentists this afternoon when the nurse went into a panic and so did the dentist because a jasper (wasp) had got in - I cannot abide jaspers and so the dentist sprayed it with anaesthetic which he claims to contain something that kills off hepatitis:eek::rotfl:
S'pose I had better think about dinner and carrying on with some work seeing as I spent the afternoon at the dentist and drinking coffee in selfridges:D0 -

Hope all feeling better chez Wol.
Loving the multi coloured astro turf idea Numpty - sheer brilliance
I felt so inspired after reading about your forthcoming visit to Garden Centre ... I weeded 3 of my borders - all illegals deported ... to the dump
