I've not spent anything today.....but then I haven't set foot outside the house...except to put the washing out in the weed ridden yard that is attracting far too many bloody bees............which I don't mind until they start buzzing past my ears.....and turn me into an arm flailing maniac trying to finish hanging the washing quickly and get back in the house:o

I know I shouldn't but the image made me :rotfl: :rotfl:

Well done on the non spender! :T

Bees are no problem. Bees will bang into you (big ones aren't that good fliers), realise you're not a flower and go looking for something else (flowers). You're not a flower, you're not part of their world - they will ignore you, they have a mission (flowers). Bees are single minded in that respect.

Wasps on the other hand... Kill wasps.

I actually quite like watching the bees go about their business...they are quite industrious don't you think? I have actually found myself just standing there watching them...and enjoying the peace at the same time..........lovely.........take time to enjoy the little things I say!

However, I think what may have freaked me out is that...the other's over the other side of the entry......appear to have a LOT of wasps attracted to/living in their yard.....I could be mistaken......they could be another breed of bee I suppose....but they look like wasps....and I just freaked:o

Well I used to think that, but a couple of years ago, we grew sunflowers. And bees used to fly in, and just not emerge. On closer examination, they were either sleeping or sunbathing! Whatever they were doing - they were skiving...

Wasps! Kill!

This is quite a good piccy of the difference - upshot: Bees are hairy and fat.

What a thought ZTD!
Always got the right answer!

Hmm. Wouldn't go that far. Maybe "always full of answers" is as far as I would go. Maybe even that should be shortened to "always full of"... :rotfl:

You'd have bees all over you. And they expend such a lot of effort getting into all your crevices. Then they tell their mates who then come and expend a lot of effort getting into all your crevices...

£10.95 in art shop on votives and glass paint and have realised that the paint is rubbish! So I'm quite annoyed, then again, it might just be me

If you know the difference between good and bad paint, then it is probably not you.

So you're probably up for today then. Where is the "How much have you saved thread"?
