Wasp Nightmare - 27/07/2016 06:37
At about 4am this morning, a chunk of plaster fell off the sloping ceiling in my rented cottage and the room started to fill with angry wasps. I scarpered (I don't mind admitting) and shut the door. I could hear wasps smacking into the door for the next hour or so. My phone, inevitably, was in the bedroom so, once I thought there'd been a bit of time for things to settle down (as measured by smacks against the door) I dressed in my race overalls, gloves and balaclava and sealed the hole up with a carrier bag and tape and opened the windows. The room was full of wasps. It's settled down a bit now but it wasn't a great start to the day! And I could have done with the sleep after my fraught weekend racing.
