Huh, I needed a segway to tell a little story. Last weekend I was camping and as this is Ireland and as it was sunny we found a beer garden to cool off and let the kids play. We had all finished our fish and chips when i popped to the loo. My pocket had a whole in it and a bunch of change fell out of my pocket. Scooped it up and returned it to my pocket when I felt a hot pin slice in to my finger. Came out like wtf did I have a thorn or nail in there? I slowly pulled out the lining of my pocket with the kids circled around me and the bugger came out of my pocket and flew away much to the kid's amazement.

Have to say wasps are much worse than honey bees. I actually felt it up to my elbow and my finger hurt like hell and got stiff. Put the kibosh on my holiday mood for an hour until I put some ice on it.


So to the question, while I religiously check the forecast the Irish weather is so changeable it's hard to take it seriously. 90% of the time they predict lightening I don't recall seeing it or hearing thunder. Really the only thing that stops me is high gusty winds. I often find an excuse to run an errand in the car those days.
