Yawn yawn, wakey wakey Autumn 2018

Hi everyone, feeling a bit better this morning. I hope everyone else is well.
Have a good day everyone, stay cool and dry and above safe and well. God bless.

 

Morning early people

No fish about this morning but a lovely day.

 

my friends

Enjoy this glorious weekend again...Christ we moan when it's to wet and when it's to hot

​

 

My delicate youthful skin was sorely damaged last evening first I spilt boiling hot chilli all over my arm.....and clothes, and everywhere else, and then when I sorted the burn out and cleaned up, noticed the pump floating in the pond - so decided to clean that and get it going again. Disturbed wasp nest in the shed and one went up my trouser leg and stung a couple of times and now I`m walking around with a tennis ball sized lump in a most unfortunate place - just thought I`d let you all know so you can have a laugh.
Here`s hoping today will be uneventful

 

Wrong again Tetters just be careful in future and I hope your heads ok mate

Join the club my friend and if your like me the humidity affects we more

 

Thank you Gail - but it`s not my head I`m worried about, I don`t keep that up my trouser leg
the ruddy wasp went right up my trouser leg and stung my thigh .....twice and I wanted my mummy

 

Did you pull out the stinger and dose yourself in vinegar ...as it helps with the swelling

I want mine but she's

 

Yes, sadly I am also an orphan - and I`m only 74 ........
PS It is bee stings you can pull out - not wapsies

 

I became an orphan at 33 but still carrying on strong ….well I pulled one out my neck when the stung me

 

Maybe that was a bee then - they leave the sting in the skin. Wasps don`t and they can sting more than once. Wasp stings can be treated with vinegar as they are alkaline, but bee stings need treating with bicarbonate of soda as their stings are acidic.

 

Good day all
@Tetters I have successfully used mustard (yellow condiment) on a sting and it has stopped the ouch almost immediately.

It is over 96f here and I have spent the morning doing wage earning work using a boiler iron system which brought the temperature 10f and raised the humidity. As soon as I finished with the iron and bled it, I watered myself under nice cool shower and feel great again. Guess I should get myself outside and water everyone out there too!

Have a super day all and play safe and keep out of the sun!
