    I think one of the best ones Ive done, was when I was washing the pots and a bee few through the window and dive bombed into the water. I was distraught. I scooped him out all wet and soggy. I lay him on some tissue paper, while I dabbed him with some more, He wasnt moving and I was really upset. I must have stood there for about half an hour patting him dry. I left him by the open window to help him dry out. When I next checked on him he was flying up the window, so I wafted him outside and he lived to see another day. The silly little b****r.:dh::D 02

    Lol, O2, I had a moment of real tears-danger this spring in the cellar. SOmething big and noisy flew past my head and landed on my shoulder, It was still freezing cold not a flower to be seen in the garden, I thought "beetle" and slapped it. It fell to the floor, and when I looked down, it was a poor bumblebee. Cold dead, poor thing, I kept saying how sorry I was,but dead it remained. I had tears in my eyes.

    ANd yes, I talk (aloud) to plants all the time, what can you do. There must be worse kinds of madness. :D Lollipop your first post in this thread just kills me.

    Do you know. I can feel a really good horror story for a movie happeing here.
    Some of the scenes that have been set would scare the pants of me.............
    Cold dank cellers with flying beasties, insects that come back to life, talking plants. Its all there I tell you. Wonderful stuff.
    All we need is ending.
