    Hi all.

    Anyone else having trouble with the little flies, our ceilings are covered in the little blighters, especially in rooms that have had lights on.:eek::eek::eek:

    Once killed a couple of dozen flies in our kitchen without using fly spray. Stood on a tall chair holding up a glass of water with a drop of Fairy Liquid (other detergents are available). When the flies are on the ceiling they detect the disturbance of the air when a glass is raised under them, but need to drop about 5cm to turn the right way up for flight, at which point they're in the water and sinking. :o

    No more flies, no spray to contaminate the food, no running around with a rolled up newspaper trying to swat things that are faster than me. :beer:

    These little flies are right little boogers zag, they seem to appear from nowhere and get right under you nose. :eek:

    The one I mentioned earlier has been back and forth across the screen a few times now. :mad:

    You sound just like my mum, she used to ask me when I was little if I needed to do a business. :rotfl:

    Night DM, thanks for the company. :)

    Not enough football...:rotfl:
    That was a good game the vast majority of you missed - two goals for Cote d'Ivoire within two minutes.:D

    The watching of the footie coverage is nearly over for this set of games. Can now go to bed, normal time:rotfl: and wake up for the afternoon, a shop and some afternoon wombling before Sunday closing time and then back for 5pm football start. Ha, I detect a plan!:cool::cool:
