My uncle's one bit of advice to me was to keep other people's balance statements and when handing out your number to a lassie write it on the statement.

Not a good idea - you could end up owning Rangers.

2) This one has probably been repeated on a seasonal basis since the inception of this thread, but f*** it: Folk that go mental whenever a little furry bumble bee comes within a mile of them. I'm sure that smashing it with the back of your hand will resolve the situation.

 

Thankfully we're only in bee season so far. I've not actually seen any wasps yet, although they're obviously out there seeing as I destroyed a couple of early wasp bikes in my shed last month. Hunners of bumble bees in the garden this year though, which is unusual as we usually only get the wee brownish honey bee ones that I've yet to see any of.

Leave the bees alone and smash the stupid hysterical c**t with the back of your hand. IMO.

It doesn't work now with everyone having a mobile phones and Facebook making everyone BE A WARE, but it was a simpler time.

A fool proof plan, with one small flaw;

It's not fool proof and only an absolute w****r would use it

Wasp bikes? I've never heard this phrase before. Are they nests or is this an extract from the can you guess what it is thread?

Wasp's nests.  I find them eerily creepy things, although I took great pleasure in annihilating them with ant powder last year and smashing the nest apart in makeshift protective gear.

My daughter is the opposite. She picks up bees and nurses them back to health with sugary water if they look a bit knackered. Getting stung doesn't bother her. Quite a hardy wee kid.

I saw one of those knackered ones on the pavement on my way to work last week, but I couldn't do much other than wish it good luck.  I passed the same point later that day, only to find a squished bee. :(

I propose a minutes silence. Tomorrow, 11am.

Or a minute's buzzing. I try and give them a splash of espresso but it doesn't seem to do much for them

Looks like you'll need to step up a level:

There's a woman does this in my office. She even uses Bing to search for Google. I'd show her how to use it properly but she's unable to retain information and I'd need to tell her again two days later. Fucking luddite!
