The first wasp arrives on our anniversary; it's a fact, based on years of experience. Everyone says it's rubbish, but we know better.

It depends on the weather, the temperature, if it's raining, if it was a hard or mild winter, the way the wind blows or where you are. That's what they tell us.

Pah! We have empirical evidence collected over many years.

It was put to the test this year when we stayed 100 miles away from home on our anniversary. Lunch on the terrace in Suffolk. Me, my wife, her mother, oh... and the first unwelcome wasp!

    Sorry guys, my drabbles seem to be becoming in loco qui diarium! This is lazy writing. About time I started getting creative again!

    I agree with Drew. Don't apologize. You carved out a nice niche (say that five times fast) here with recounting stories of your life. We all enjoy them.

    Yeah, what Drew and Christopher said. You've found your groove. Stick with it.

    I have heard of him, Drew, but have never read. I will rectify that. Thanks very much for the encouragement high you so generously give to me and many others.
