5 weeks until our wedding, I guess I should start risking looking forward to it going ahead now with hopefully not any more bumps on the way. Have the final bits of arts and crafts to finish this week before getting everything more organised and packed up (our living room has a pile of packed/ unorganized boxes in the corner).

Halfway between a smile and an irk. Going to bed last night I heard a strange heavy breathing/snoring noise from within the wall of our dormer window landing. Me and the lad investigated, couldn't find a thing. Sounded like Edgar Allen Poe's Black Cat purring inside the wall and it freaked us right out, so much that the lad had to come into the big bed. Stopped after a while. Turns out it was a wasp nest (we get at least one of these a year as we're right next to a park), and wasps make a purring noise when they come home at the end of the day. This lady captured the sound, which is exactly what we heard last night, it's really amazing: http://www.rachelbarker.com/2018/08/...eep-noise.html. Unfortunately, they've also got to be rounded up and killed now, so there's the irk bit.Last edited by Golgo; 24-08-2020, 13:26.

I used to hate wasps but found out they are pollinators and the number of horse flies is way lower in my garden this year (we have a nest in our roof space).

Having not heard of Mr Martin, I just googled him. Oh dear.
