    I got stung by bees twice in the last hour whilst schlepping my garden pots into my neighbour's garden for her to water (while I am away somewhere where I am likely to get bitten).

    Bees are being treated like pandas and white rhino these days and are integral to the survival of the homosapien.

    When you get stung by a bee, it's body gets ripped in half and it perishes (unlike the pesky wasp the bastards!)

    Careful you don't get your collar felt for contributing to their demise

    Unusual for a bee to sting unless it has been threatened.

    Here's my take:
    TBG threatens and kills a couple of bees then flees the country expecting to get bitten.

    I hope for his sake he isn't off to India to threaten a tiger!

    I love a bee, me. I can confirm that by mid September, there'll be very few of 'em knocking around.

    There seem to be a posse of them congregating in and around a bush that I had to pass on the path. Maybe it was the sight of the wheelbarrow that put the willies up them....

    I once had a very close call: I was on a motorbike wearing jeans with a hole in the crutch when I got stung. Just about stayed on the bike...

    The world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make is taking a stroll down his local high street.

    As he passes by the record shop, a sign catches his eye.

    "Just Released -New LP -Wasps of the World and the sounds that they make - available now"

    Unable to resist the temptation, the man goes into the shop.

    "I am the world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make. I'd very much like to listen to the new LP you have advertised in the window."

    "Certainly, Sir," says the young man behind the counter. "If you'd like to step into the booth and put on the headphones, I'll put the LP on for you."

    The world expert on European wasps goes into the booth and puts on the earphones.

    Ten minutes later, he comes out of the booth and announces, "I am the world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make and yet I recognised none of those."

    "I'm sorry Sir", says the young assistant.

    "If you'd care to step into the booth, I can let you have another 10 minutes."

    The world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make steps back into the booth and replaces the headphones.

    Ten minutes later, he comes out of the booth shaking his head.

    "I don't understand it", he says,

    "I am the world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make, and yet I still can't recognise any of those!"

    "I'm terribly sorry, Sir" says the young man, "perhaps if you'd like to step into the booth again, you could have 5 more minutes."

    Sighing, the world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make steps back into the booth.

    Five minutes later, he comes out again, clearly agitated.

    "I am the world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make and yet I have recognised none of the wasps on this LP."


    "I really am terribly sorry", says the young assistant, I've just realised I was playing you the bee side."
